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.

Hi! I'm an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a concentration in Special Education. I currently work with children ages 3–4, and I absolutely love helping young children learn, grow, and reach their individual milestones. I have a genuine passion for working with children and building meaningful, personal connections with them. Through my current teaching position, I've gained experience supporting children with a variety of developmental needs, learning styles, and abilities. I especially enjoy creating engaging activities, encouraging independence, supporting developmental growth, and making children feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Before becoming a teacher, I also worked in a daycare for 2.5 years, where I cared for children ranging from infants as young as 2 months old to children up to 5 years old. This gave me valuable experience with different age groups and developmental stages. I'm currently looking for an opportunity to work more closely with a smaller number of children, where I can provide individualized attention, build strong relationships, and make a meaningful difference in their everyday lives. I would love to find a family looking for someone who is nurturing, patient, dependable, engaging, and knowledgeable about early childhood development. I look forward to helping children learn, explore, and grow while providing a safe and loving environment!

I've worked with children for a long time, from newborns to about 10 years old. I find it so fun to see all the different personalities and how they work apon critical thinking. I specialize in children with AUSTISM and ADHD as that's something I find more engaging. Letting them experiment with new textures, foods (if they're picky) and all sorts of things to get them out of their comfort zome
