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.

My name is Kala, and I am a lover of nature, animals, and, of course, children. I bring 25 years of experience as a stay-at-home mom to two adult daughters, as well as a professional background in healthcare, local government, and public education. I particularly loved my time as a preschool teacher assistant and have a sincere passion for supporting the development of young children. There is no greater feeling than making a genuine connection with a child and seeing the world through their eyes. A child’s laughter is music to my ears. It makes my heart smile. While most of my 2 years of experience is with children aged 3 to 10, I am also extremely comfortable and happy caring for infants. Having recently moved back to Ohio from Colorado to be closer to family, I am eager to start a new career as a professional nanny. My approach to childcare is energetic and child-led. I enjoy engaging children in creative, fun, and stimulating activities such as crafting, reading, imaginative play, and exploring the outdoors. I follow a positive discipline model to foster responsibility, manners, and respect. You can rely on me to be organized, trustworthy, and punctual. I am available for flexible full-time hours and am happy to assist with light household duties, errands, and pet care as needed. In my free time I enjoy hiking, kayaking, traveling, and exploring local state parks and historical sites.
