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.

Lucielle is wonderful. She is always on time, very responsive, she is kind, caring, creative and proactive. We brings the routine and attentiveness skills from having worked in a daycare center, but the warmth of a family friend. Both of my babies took to her immediately.

Hi, I’m Angel — a nursing student at Fitchburg State University with over 5 years of hands-on childcare experience caring for family,friends and colleagues who consistently trust me with their little ones. Children naturally gravitate toward me because I create a warm, engaging, and structured environment where they feel safe and supported. With my healthcare background, safety and attentiveness are always priorities. I also prepare fresh, high-quality meals and am available for private chef-style meal prep for families who value nutritious, home-cooked food. Dependable, nurturing, and professional — I provide care that gives parents true peace of mind.

Angel is wonderful with children. My infant and toddler warmed up to her immediately. She’s attentive, fun, and keeps everything organized and clean. The meals she prepared were delicious, and it was clear she really cares about the kids’ well-being.

Hello! Thanks for reading my profile. I’ve always worked with and loved children of all ages. I have four children of my own, who are all in school full time. Before I had my own family, I worked as a preschool teacher in a daycare center. I was then a stay at home mom, but continued babysitting for multiple families over the years. For the last few years, I’ve worked as a career nanny for some amazing families along with doing some occasional sitting for other families. I’m available now for some date night and occasional sitting for some new families. I have an Associates degree in Early Childhood and have great references!

Hello! My name is Michelle, but i'm more personally known as Shelly! I understand how challenging juggling work, home and childcare is, so i'm here to help! I babysat my nieces and nephew as soon as it was appropriate age wise, they ranged from 6 months - 12 years. I love being around kids and seeing how their little minds work and evolve. I am able to change diapers and provide interactive play for young minds. I work well with pets as I have 2 of my own dogs at home as well. I have an extremely flexible schedule as I am young and have no other vital responsibilities outside of work during the week. I'm not currently in school due to cost but i'm hoping to save up money to go to school and get degrees for child care in the future. I'd be a great addition to any setting and willing to help out in anyway possible.

I started professionally babysitting for my families at my last childcare center. I loved developing a relationship with them and giving them the "time off" parents need! Learning about their lifestyles at home helped me better personalize my childcare to fit each family's needs, which is the most important skill of a sitter!
