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 am the Mother of two grown children and a grandmother of four.I have over 25 years experience with infants, toddlers, and special needs children. I have cared for plenty of newborns,children,toddlers and teenagers(happy,sick or cranky) I believe that children need a caregiver who provides a loving safe environment, quality one-on-one attention, lots of fun and good nutrition. I am honest, a great communicator and a lot of fun. Being a mom has helped me to relate to the parents I work for. I make sure to always keep open communication with the parents about my daily interactions with their children so we can be on the same page .If I sound like someone that would be a good fit for your family or if you just have questions, e-mail or give me a call.I am CPR certified and first aide trained

I started caring for children by babysitting at age 14. That continued on over the years into teaching swim lessons, leading YMCA programs, nannying, and working in other licensed child care programs. I have experience with children a few months to 11 years old. I have also earned 9 credits in Early Childhood Education. In child care, I strive to foster growth, fun, and caring connection. Most importantly: safety first. Then, we can explore, create, and learn!
