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 have a natural talent for working with children and a strong sense of responsibility, which I’ve developed over the years by helping raise my younger brother, who is now nine. Through that experience, I’ve learned patience, empathy, and how to handle a variety of situations with care and understanding. In addition, I have training in lifeguarding, CPR, and general safety, which has given me the skills to stay calm and act quickly in emergencies. I’m a personable, sociable individual who genuinely enjoys connecting with others and creating a positive, safe environment for everyone around me.
