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 Paige, and I'm a psychology student at Binghamton University with over 8 years of childcare experience. I've worked as both a babysitter and live-in nanny for families across New York, Long Island, and Florida, caring for children of all ages, from newborns to preteens. I love being a sitter because I enjoy building meaningful relationships with children and watching them learn, grow, and gain confidence. I love creating fun activities, spending time outdoors, helping with homework, and making sure every child feels safe, supported, and cared for. Through my experience, I've cared for newborns, infants, toddlers, school aged children, and preteens. I also have experience assisting children with special needs and understand the importance of patience, adaptability, and individualized care. I'm comfortable preparing meals, helping with homework, organizing educational and creative activities, providing transportation, managing bedtime routines, and maintaining a structured daily schedule. I know CPR and First Aid, have a clean driver's license and driving record, and pride myself on being dependable, responsible, and trustworthy. My background in psychology has given me a strong understanding of child development and effective communication, allowing me to support children's emotional, social, and developmental growth. My goal is always to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can thrive while giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are in caring and capable hands. I look forward to becoming a trusted part of your family's support system!

Paige is a reliable, responsible, and kind caregiver. She is patient with young children and great at getting them to finish meals, clean up toys, and get ready for bed. Paige is always on time, stays communicative throughout her time with the kids, and is comfortable asking for guidance and following instructions.

I have been a sitter and full time nanny for several different families over the years and have experience with ages 1 through 16. I have also done volunteer work at the Manhasset/Great Neck EOC after school program for several years for children during my time in high school and college. My major in college was education and I also have taken courses in special education as my intentions were to become a teacher in the future. I have a career in retail and sales management but I am looking to be a sitter and take care of a flexible family on my off time. I have a bright and fun loving personality and get along with everyone. Anyone that knows me would describe me as loving, patient, kind, funny, mature, positive, upbeat and of course bubbly! I look forward to meeting you!
