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 Hannah, and I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic nanny with several years of experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I have experience as a full-time nanny, babysitter, educational aide, and gymnastics coach, which has given me a well-rounded understanding of children’s different personalities, developmental stages, and individual needs. I truly love working with children and enjoy creating days that are both fun and meaningful. Whether we’re exploring outside, visiting the library, doing crafts and sensory activities, reading together, playing, or simply following a child’s interests, I love giving children opportunities to learn, build confidence, and be themselves. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple children and maintaining structured routines including meals, naps, quiet time, and activities. I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, so working with children is something I genuinely care about and plan to continue as part of my career. I’m patient, organized, communicative, and attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel completely comfortable and confident in the person caring for their children. I’m also happy to provide family-assistant support when needed, including helping with children’s laundry, keeping play areas organized, meal and snack preparation, errands, and light household tasks. My goal is to become a trusted and dependable part of a family’s support system—not only providing excellent childcare, but helping make everyday life a little easier for the whole family. 🤍
