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.

My name is Taylor, I am 22 years old and have been working with kids for 6 years. I have been a nanny since 2016 and absolutely I love it! I have worked with families with one child as well as families with multiple children. I feel comfortable watching many children at one time. Although I love working with all ages, I am especially drawn towards children 0-4 years old. When I am not nannying you can catch me outside with my family and friends, or my dogs. Again my name is Taylor and I hope to meet you and your family and have the opportunity to work with your children and/or child.

Hi- Im Kate! I have been babysitting since I was 12 (I started with new born twins!!) and have sat for different families since. I have helped with twins, triplets and have watched over children from the age of a few days to teens. I was a career nanny for over 10 years working for many profession families (including NFL players!) before having my own children (they are 5, 3, and 2.5month now!) I love working with new families and am look forward to working nights, weekends, overnights and for travel. While I am working on my newborn care specialist training, I am very interested in working with families with newborns for overnights as a night nurse or extra help on weekends or evenings. **while I have no reviews posted here, I have wonderful references I’m happy to share. I have not used sittercity for a very long time- I was mostly hired by word of mouth when I was consistently babysitting.**

Hello! my name is Alexis. I have over 9 years of experience in childcare, I worked professionally as a teachers assistant for newborns-school aged children. I am the oldest of all of my siblings and cousins so I’d ultimately be the person to babysit when the parents are busy. My main priority as a caregiver is to make sure the child is always safe, healthy, and happy!
