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.

Hello, families. I am a retired kindergarten and elementary school teacher. Spending time with children is not only my favorite activity, but also my passion. I’m a humorous mother who values independence, both for myself and my children. I would love to share my experience as both a teacher and a mother with parents who are currently in need of parenting support.

Mutsumi is the best nanny anyone could ask for. She was with us for nearly 3 years and has become part of our family. Her creative teaching methods helped our son flourish. Everything from learning the alphabet, to counting, to reading, to music, to Japanese, she pushed the limits of what we thought was possible for a toddler. Mutsumi helped shape our son as he’s now ready for school. We cannot recommend Mutsumi highly enough!!

Kate was great with our daughter. We felt completely comfortable leaving the two of them together. The next morning our daughter was asking when Kate would be back, what else can you hope for?

We loved Karla the first time and had her back a second time. We can’t say enough about how great she is. She came in a heartbeat again (not our intent!), and came all the way to us for just a few hours (we are in the city). She sat through so much traffic to get to us yet still showed up with a smile and the same, warm, loving energy! We asked her to stay an extra hour and she so kindly did. She’s awesome. We really enjoy having her and so does our son which is great. (She also took it upon herself to do the dishes. I was surprised and so grateful!) Can’t recommend Karla enough. :)

I have been working with children since I was 16 years old from ages 4 months- 12 years old. I grew up as one of the oldest to many cousins and loved going to work with my mother who was a teacher, which is where my passion started. I started babysitting at 16 and have been working in childcare programs since 2019. I started at a daycare in 2019 working with children from age 5 months to 13 years old. I worked at a special needs pre-K for two years and I am now working as a prek teacher’s assistant in an elementary school. I have also part-time worked with a 19-year-old with Rhett syndrome. I enjoy providing engaging activities where children can also learn through play! I have my CPR and first aid certificate. I’m looking for a full-time position and would be available to start mid June. I am looking forward to speaking to you!!
