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.

Beth watched my 3 cats for 9 days and I couldn't have been happier with her service. Before the trip, we corresponded several times and while I was on vacation she sent me photos and kept me updated on my "kids". She had no problem doing other jobs to help make my time away stress free, such as taking the trash out and checking my pool daily. I asked her if she could stop over more than once a day and she had no problem doing whatever I needed. I would describe her as responsible, reliable, trustworthy and will definitely be calling her again.

I've babysat for at least 2 families on a fairly regular basis, as well as babysat lots of other kiddos! I'm a junior in college studying Elementary Education and can't wait one day to have my own little ones. I treat every kid as I would my own. I'd love to find a family who could use help especially during the summer or whenever I'm available. I'm not certified, however I did have some first aid training in high-school, and can definitely get references if you have any questions. :)
