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.

Hi! I'm Hazel, and I just graduated from Bryn Mawr College. While I’m trying to find a job to start my career in public policy and advocacy, I’m happy to babysit/nanny as much or as little as you need me! I have 7 years of experience in childcare. I started working with kids when I was still a kid myself. Growing up I did gymnastics, so around 11 years old, I started as a junior coach for toddlers aged 2-6. I continued this job until I was 14 years old. I loved being able to teach kids something I had a passion for and letting them explore jumping and tumbling. I also had experience working at a daycare for a social service business. Here, I worked with kids aged at just a few weeks all the way to 10 years old. I independently watched after the children while their parents received services from the business. Most recently, I’ve consistently babysat for 4 different families in the Bryn Mawr/Ardmore area with 2-4 kids at a time ages ranging from 5 months to 11 years. A little about myself, I majored in Environmental Studies and Political Science at Bryn Mawr, and I also play field hockey for the college. I love being outside, playing sports, arts, and reading!

I have always had a deep passion for caring for children, which led me to pursue several internships in childcare during my time in college. These experiences gave me hands-on knowledge in providing attentive and nurturing care, even though I didn’t receive formal certifications. During my internships, I helped children with their daily routines, organized fun, educational activities, and ensured they felt safe and supported at all times. My childcare experience, I have developed strong communication and organizational skills, which help me maintain a structured yet fun environment for children. While I don't have formal certifications, my hands-on experience and commitment to children’s well-being allow me to create a positive and engaging environment for kids to thrive in.
