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.

Hi families! I’m Layla Brady, a 20-year-old CPR/AED/First Aid–certified caregiver with over 5 years of hands on babysitting experience. Growing up in a big, close-knit family and helping my mom in her daycare taught me how to care for little ones from infancy to the teenage years with patience, intention, and joy. I’m known for being charismatic, uplifting, and reliable, and I love creating safe, nurturing spaces where children can laugh, learn, and feel supported emotionally and physically. I also have a driver’s license (no personal vehicle at this time) and several years of customer-service experience, which has strengthened my communication and problem-solving skills. I’m open to nanny positions, including live-in opportunities with families who value faith, kindness, and mutual respect. While I am dedicated to the families I serve, I also cherish spending holidays with my own family. I’m excited to bring warmth, structure, and genuine care to your home!
