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.

My husband and I just moved from NH to Florida for his job. I taught elementary students (mostly kindergarten and second grade) for seven years in NH. I’m currently looking for babysitting/nannying opportunities. I can be flexible with the hours and times that are needed for your family. I have been practicing social distancing and wear a mask when I have to leave home. I’d like for the family I work with to also take appropriate precautions during this time.

Hello! I recently moved to New Hampshire from Maine with my boyfriend, who works as a merchant marine. I originally studied elementary education, but upon graduation I began working in child care and discovered my love for early childhood development. I have worked with children since 2022, and have over a year of experience in childcare since graduation. I would consider my area of expertise to be in toddlers, but I have cared for children between the ages of 3 months and 6 years of age. My greatest feedback from current and past superiors is my calm and nurturing nature, and the ability to navigate behaviors through positive guidance and evidence based practices.
