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.

I have a Master's Degree in Social Work from the Ohio State University, so I have completed all necessarily child development and child psychology courses. I have experience as a babysitter/nanny for the past 11 year from infant to 15 years of age. I have really enjoyed taking care of children, especially infants and toddlers. Seeing children smile makes me so happy! If I can be your children's sitter/nanny, I would like to communicate with them as much as possible because it is critical period of time for their development. My goal as a sitter/nanny is to help children to grow and recognize their uniqueness, and to help them develop their social skills, as well as help instill a sense of confidence and self-esteem in them. I am the single mother of a 17 year-old girl. I really care about my own daughter and want to embrace other children in the same way, showing them unconditional love and support. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I would love to become a part of your family's life!! Thank you for any consideration.
