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.

As a caring mom to a 4-month-old, I understand just how much trust it takes to leave your little one in someone else’s care. My hands-on experience with my own baby, along with a natural love for children, means I bring patience, attentiveness, and compassion to every family I help. I’m comfortable caring for newborns, infants, and older children — from bottle-feeding and diaper changes to playtime and bedtime routines. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and fun environment where both parents and kids feel at ease.

I'm a teacher assistant for early childhood. I've been working with this business for three years which has been extremely rewarding to me and to those around me. Communication skills are extremely important for this job since the parents keep in touch with us through-out the day regarding the wellbeing of their child. One of my biggest accomplishment in my current job is having the opportunity to be the main teacher in the afternoon schedule. I'm currently a college student majoring in elementary education.
