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.

Last-minute, school and tutoring, date nights—find the right babysitters for you.

I am 53 years old and I love babies and kids! I have been a stay at home mom since our twins were born in 2003. I use to babysit back when I was 12 and have been babysitting since our own twins started school. They are 22 years old now. We also have a 24-year-old. I am currently babysitting twin girls. I started almost 4 years ago watching them. Before watching them, I babysat twin boys for 4 years. Unfortunately the girls that I currently watch will be going into full time preschool next August. But I know that they will moving on to bigger and better adventures being in school. I am looking to start my journey with another great family in May/June. I can even start 1 or 2 days now.

Julie has been caring for our family for 4 years. If we could keep her forever, we would in a heartbeat. She came highly recommended by several other families whose children were transitioning to all day school and they shared with me they felt the same way. Asking her to care for our children was the best decision we could have made for their emotional, social and academic development. She has excellent communication, time management, critical thinking, she is dependable, and truly cares. We have a large blended family with children ranging in age from 15-4, including twins. She has provided newborn care, toddler care, help with homework, afterschool care, getting kids ready for after school activities, help with household activities and beyond! With all of our moving parts she never missed a beat. I consider Julie a twin expert, she helped me adjust to being a twin mom when my girls were newborns. She is engaged with the kids, she reads and plays and is constantly keeping them busy. They never sit in front of the TV when they're with her. The personal care she provides to our children has consistently exceeded our expectations. If you have the chance to work with Julie, you would be a fool to pass up the opportunity.
