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.

Hi My name is Danielle and I am a former Nanny/Babysitter not to mention I have raised 5 children whom gave me 14 beautiful grandchildren.I treat all children as my own grandchildren.I have been caring for children for years.I had my own in home daycare when my children were growing up and after they were old enough to go to school I tried to work as a Nursing assistant although I enjoyed it.I still longed for becoming a Nanny and I started caring for a little boy in Glenmore until he was a 1 1/2 but unfortunately things happen and Mom had got transferred I was devastated.After a few weeks I applied with another couple in Chester Springs and I got the job caring for a little baby named Joey he was 3mths at the time I had so much fun we did crafts, library, read lots of books ECT.And then he became a big brother to a little girl Rory and I Nannyed both of them until the second week of August 2024 when Mom got laid off.I was so upset since I was with them for almost 3years! I would love to care for your little ones as I love to watch them grow in there own little ways as every child is special! I have references and plenty of experience and will treat every child with lots of love! If Interested in speaking with me just reach out !

We loved working with Danielle. As new parents with a baby that arrived 3 weeks early, she was such a great resource! Not to mention our baby boy fell asleep in her arms the first time he met her. Danielle gave me great peace of mind as a new mom heading back to work. I would highly recommend Danielle a your little ones would be in great and experienced hands.

We were very pleased, she was running around chasing out boys (1 and 3) as soon as she got in the door. Asked lots of questions so as to not bother us during the night. Thank you!

As a dedicated mother who has successfully raised my own child, I bring firsthand experience and deep understanding of children's needs and development. Over the years, I've cultivated a nurturing environment that balances safety, learning and fun. Experience: having navigated the journey of motherhood (I have a self sufficient teenager), I am not only well versed in caring for children of various ages (from infancy through adolescence) but have a deep understanding of specific needs of each milestone of one's physical and emotional development. I have recently worked as a part time care giver and personal assistant for a prominent family juggling a multitude of responsibilities. Excellent references and background check (including government clearances from a previous job)

My sons love Monika! She has cared for my toddler and baby boys for six months. She is gentle and patient with them. She helps my older son develop his motor skills and practices potty training with him. She reads them mountains of books. My older son asks for her all the time and tells me stories about their time together. I trust her to keep them safe, help them build new skills, and teach them kindness.
