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.

I am a stay at home mom who only has grown kids at home now that only ask for food every once in a. While. My husband is a Senior Director of Sales for a petroleum company and has an office here but travels. All the time. My biggest baby is my 7 month old baby Great Dane. We have a 2 year old bulldog and tiny tiny 10 pound mix. I watch my three year old baby cousin during the school year but soon it will be her turn for preschool. I’ve watched her since she was 7 weeks old. My house is set up with toy room and bedrooms so ideally I would want to watch out of my home. Anyone is more than welcome to come see. Thank you for ready my Bio.

Hello! I’m Lola and I'm the oldest of seven kids, with the youngest being just 4, so caring for children has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I naturally took on a “second mom” role and learned how to juggle patience, responsibility, and lots of love. Throughout high school, I also babysat for family friends to earn extra money, giving me hands-on experience with kids of different ages and personalities. In addition to childcare, I’ve always had pets in the house, so I understand the responsibility, attentiveness, and care that come with animals too. I’m a creative person who loves keeping kids active and engaged through imaginative play, crafts, and hands-on activities—the messier, the better! I also believe creativity comes with responsibility, so cleaning up together is always part of the fun. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves!

Working with kids has always been the most fun and rewarding job. It's a win win to help out parents and learn from the kids! Which is why I have been nannying or working with children in some capacity for 8 years and will continue on in the future!
