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! My name is Sky, I am a 25 year old college student currently working part-time as a nanny during the week. I’m available for additional part-time babysitting alongside my regular position. I have over 3 years of nanny experience and have worked with children ages 6 months to 8 years old. I’m confident caring for infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children. I love being active and intentional with the kids I care for — whether that’s park days, swimming, hikes, walks, crafts at home, reading time, or creative games. I’ve also worked with families who prefer a quieter, more structured environment, and I’m very adaptable to each household’s rhythm and expectations. My goal is always to create a safe, engaging, and supportive environment while respecting each family’s unique needs and values. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love working with children. I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family!
