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.

Ember is easy to get a hold of and responds quickly. She's great with our toddler and even brought an activity for them to do together. She's punctual and we will continue to use her as often as possible.

Jan helped us with our 4 yo daughter and was great with her! She made her feel comfortable right away and kept her busy with on going activities and play ideas! Jan helped enforce the concepts she was learning in school and taught her great gross and fine motor skills and gave us detailed feedback from each day. I highly recommend Jan, she is trustworthy and exceptional.

I have a full time job at a preschool working as the teacher of preschool age children. I am enrolled in school online where I am finishing my BA in Business and working towards my Masters degree. I am single and have no children; therefore working nights and weekends is not a problem. I am very creative and love being active with children. Don't mind getting messy and love taking trips to the library and local parks. I have a dog at home, so pets are not a problem. I also do not mind doing some light cooking and cleaning if needed; and love to bake, especially with the kids. If you would like to know anything else please feel free to ask. I look forward to talking with you soon!

Deena has just started with us but through the process we knew she was the best fit for our daughter. Deena is on top of everything with our child and plays with her. We all interact together great. We are so happy to have found her. We consider Deena a part of our family already. Right now my little one and Deena are playing in the other room and my little girl sounds so happy and having a lot of fun. Thank you sittercity for this connection and thank you Deena for taking on our family! Robin

I am a pre-nursing student at RVCC, and a certified Medical Assistant and EMT. While I do not have any paid childcare experience, I do have 6 siblings, 4 of them being younger than me. I would like to be a NICU/PICU nurse in the future, so I believe babysitting will be as valuable of an experience for me as I hope it is for the families I babysit for.
