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.

Hello my name is Shannon, I'm 39 and have been babysitting for a very long time. I started at the bottom and worked my way up I was recently with a family for 6 years however they had to let me go right now due to the COVID-19. so I'm on the search because I need a job. I'm a very Kind, caring and honest person. Reliable and responsible, I have great references. I was CPR certified for 2 years but I juts need to get it updated. I have worked with all ages, and I also worked with a child with Autism and loved every moment, a disability doesn't matter to me. I have my own vehicle. I'm very patient/ understanding/ calm. I communicate well with the kids/ as well as the parents. I am always letting the parents know what is happening through-out the day when I'm with their kids. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I'm a honest person. Looking for something Monday-Friday, or unless it's like full time within 3-4 days like if you work at a hospital or something. I will occassionally do Weekend help as long as you let me know ahead of time. In the summer time I bascailly would take the kids to parks/ or swim with them. I also dont mind doing light house keeping. I can be flexiable, and as I said Im very easy going so easy to get a long with. I'm very soft-spoken/ loving, I hate raising my voice, however I can be firm if needed, and if parents want me to be. I follow the rules what any parents give. Sometimes a parent likes to leave me notes with ideas and or things that need done through the day and thats okay too. Over-all I'm just a fun loving/ Faith filled, caring Nanny. Will do whatever I can to make sure your child is having fun/ cared for and safe. Just send me a message and lets talk from there :) Thanks.
