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!

Amy has been a nanny for more than two years to our two young children who are now ages 3 and 6. Outside of being flexible, reliable, punctual and extremely loyal, she has a heart of gold and has loved our children as her own. She has used her early childhood education degree to teach early academic concepts, do various arts and crafts projects and created an environment of sharing and turn-taking. She initiates bi-weekly library trips, visits to the animal farms, walks on the beach, exploring the backyard with magnifying glasses (just to name a few) all on her own. She has given our girls routine and structure, helped provide healthy meals and is extremely conscious of their safety. Amy is also a reliable driver who takes them to swimming class, soccer practice and preschool. She also helps around the house by assisting the girls with their chores of putting away laundry, sweeping floors and watering plants. She encourages their independence — including potty training, putting on their own shoes, their own clothes, brushing their teeth and washing themselves in the bath. Amy is excellent about outdoor time even in the chilly weather; she has taught them how to ride bikes, scoot scooters, pump their legs on the swings and build snowmen. She is a great friend with a great sense of humor who has taught and uses good manners, is excellent at kissing boo-boos and gives great goodbye hugs at the bus stop. Any family would be lucky to have Amy!

Hi! I’m currently 24 years old and I became babysitter certified at the age of 12 to be able to properly care for my younger cousins/siblings and I’ve been at it ever since. I also took an early childhood learning class in high school. I absolutely adore children and I care for every one as if they were my own. I have experience as a behavioral technician in a clinical setting working with children on the spectrum from ages 2-5. I have experience with infants, toddlers, elementary age & pre-teens. I also have experience with multiples. I love encouraging children to engage in activities that help them learn/grow but I also love bringing them places to relax and have fun or just simply coloring together and listening to music. I also like cooking and what not so meal prep is always on the table if you need it. I always respect parents boundaries/wishes and I adapt to whatever approach they prefer with anything. Most importantly; I will protect your child with my life, scouts honor!

Over the past seven years, I've gained extensive babysitting experience, caring for children ranging from infants to preteens. I've developed a keen understanding of each child's unique needs and preferences, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. My responsibilities have included meal preparation, bedtime routines, and engaging in age-appropriate activities to foster creativity and learning. I prioritize open communication with parents to provide updates on the child's well-being and address any concerns promptly. My commitment to creating a positive and enjoyable experience for both the children and their families has been a cornerstone of my babysitting approach.
