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! My name is Killian Kiernan and I am a dependable and nurturing babysitter with hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through school-age programs. I’ve worked with families and in structured childcare settings, supporting children’s development at every stage—from soothing newborns to helping older kids with homework and creative play. I’m certified in CPR and First Aid, and I’ve completed training in child safety and age-appropriate care. I’m confident managing daily routines, including feeding, diapering, naps, and bedtime for infants, as well as engaging school-age children in fun, educational activities. I bring patience, attentiveness, and a calm presence to every caregiving situation. My goal is always to create a safe, supportive, and joyful environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident! Please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am super flexible and willing to adapt to any schedule.

Killian was an instant match for our family from the moment she walked through our door. Killian has been prompt, always smiling and I have been extremely impressed with her family story and her motivation and drive to succeed. My kids and I loved her immediately and she would be a fantastic addition to any family.

As a warm, nurturing, and dependable nanny/sitter with over a decade of experience, I care for children of all ages with honesty and dependability. I understand how much trust and courage it takes for a parent to invite a nanny into their family, and I honor that responsibility every day. I believe in creating a playful, outdoor environment where kids can explore, and I actively play right alongside them—whether we’re discovering nature, visiting parks, or engaging in creative activities. I respect each child’s unique pace and every family’s dynamic. Honest communication and safety guide me, and I’m committed to providing a space where children feel seen, supported, and free to grow—with me right there, playing and learning alongside them💛

I am a very responsible person, I love working with children and have had multiple babysitting jobs. I can cook and clean. I can provide references and I’ve been infant and regular cpr and first aid certified multiple times. I have a stepson who I stay home to care for, I have him every other week so would prefer to have a consistent schedule with your kid at your or my home.
