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 Ashley and I am 35 years old. I've been banysitting since I was 11 years old. I'm from New York and have been living in Virginia for 3 years. Taking care of children has been a great passion of mine since I was a child. Before moving to Virginia I worked in a nursing home as a nurses aide for 6 years. I have 20 years of experience with children ranging from newborn to 10 years old. My favorite ages are newborns to 4 years old but I'm willing to babysit children that are older. I do know cpr but I am not up to date for being certified. I have a dog that loves children. I do love babysitting from home but that won't stop me from watching your children at your house.

Well Hello Beautiful people!!! I first want to say thank you for thinking of me in your search. My name is Cardelia I am better known as Dee. I grew up in a big family, I have 6 brothers and 2 sisters. I first started caring for children very young. As you would think it started in my own home and then to my nieces/ nephews. Then I had my own children and went from there. I have had sitter and nanny jobs in Obetz as well as back home in Oklahoma. I love children and animals. Children bring joy to the day with their wild ideas and funny sayings. Though it can't always be play time understanding means more when dealing with anyone. Even more so with children. I have also done home health care for about 6 years and enjoyed that as well as a live in caregiver. I would love to meet you lovely parents and get to know what is needed for your family to succeed and be of assistance. Thank u for your time until later.. Dee

Hi there I’m Cam! I’m 24 years old and have been in the childcare world since I was 17. I started at a golf club running a kids club and that’s what sparked my passion for childcare! From there I went on to work at a preschool for a little while until I found a wonderful family to nanny for and watched 4 kids aged 2,3,8 and 9, for 3 years until the youngest ones went to preschool/kindergarten. I also have preschool experience as an infant 1 and 2 teacher and also toddler 1 and 2. Plus helping out in other age groups classrooms. I would love to get back into the nanny environment and have a more one on one care experience again! I am CPR and basic first aid trained. I also have experience in early childhood development meaning I can help out with teaching little ones the basics! I just left my lead toddler teacher position to get back into one on one care. Would love to chat about your needs and wants in a nanny! Currently located in the Ashville area but willing to travel wherever! I do currently have a up to date background check through OCCRRA and updated my CPR/basic first aid training in the past month!
