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.

Hello Families! My name is Shannon. I am a 27 year old mom of two, to a 5 and 3 year old. I love being a sitter, because kids see the world in a whole new light than adults. Their curiosity, their joy, and courage to ask and/or say the first thing that comes to mind. I’ve been a childcare worker for 8 years, and it’s been a bittersweet experience. It’s a wonderful sight to see a child moving on up in their milestones and knowing you’ve played a role in it. I am CPR/First Aid certified, and I also and food safety certified.
