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 looking to start either a part-time nanny job or full-time nanny job (at a reduced rate) if I can bring my youngest with me who is 4 months old (my other child will be starting preschool this fall). I want to be a trusted person for your family, where you feel comfortable leaving for work knowing that your child(ren) are in good hands! I know how it feels to be afraid to leave your child with someone- hence me currently being a SAHM to my two children. Prior to me being a SAHM, I worked at the Ocean County Health Department. I also have my teacher certification but only did a little bit of teaching after college before I knew that I wanted to work for the county. I have also had multiple years of experience at a summer camp. I am very reliable and trust worthy. Please feel free to reach out with any questions concerns! Thank you.
