Q: What’s the difference between a nanny and a babysitter?

Nannies and babysitters share the same primary responsibility of providing safe and enriching care for your child, but there are a few differences between them. Nannies are more commonly associated with regular work, whether full or part-time, offering daily or consistent care to a particular family. There are also several different types of nannies, including au pairs, house managers, doulas, live-in, and overnight nannies. Babysitters, on the other hand, are typically hired for irregular or occasional work, either full or part-time. If you’re looking for last-minute care for date night, or the occasional few hours after school, a babysitter is a great best option. Identifying the type and frequency of child care you’ll need is the best way to decide whether a babysitter or nanny is a better fit for your family.

Q: How do nannies interact with my child?

Nannies on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them. They're happy to participate in outdoor activities like sports, or indoor activities like music, baking, tutoring help, and art. Wherever your child's interests lie, nannies on Sittercity can engage them in a nurturing way.

Last-minute, school and tutoring, date nights—find the right babysitters for you.

Rita did a fabulous job caring for our 7 month old while we were visiting Ogunquit, Maine. Rita communicated well with us leading up to and during the babysitting gig, and she was very playful and caring with our baby. We look forward to hiring Rita again for the next time we are visiting the area!

Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's my true passion. I've dedicated much of my career to providing care for children from infancy to age 5. I prefer to nanny because it allows me to provide a quality experience for your child, which can be more challenging in a group setting. I have a self-designed BS in incorporating the arts into Early Childhood Education, a CDA, and am current in CPR and First Aid. I have a comprehensive portfolio to share with you. I create learning experiences that are engaging and fun. I'm reliable, patient, calm and imaginative. I love to get children outdoors to explore the natural world and assist in physical development. I look forward to speaking with you about the needs of your little one(s)!
