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.

I’ve been babysitting since I was young. Last year because of COVID I began looking for a nanny job since I am majoring in education and wanted some hands on experience. I am looking for another job because my previous nanny job working with a female toddler fell through. I love working with kids and this is what I want to do for a living (education) once I graduate college!

I like being a sitter because I like getting to know people and I like helping out the parents/family. I babysat kids as young as 2 and as old as 15. I used to babysit my siblings, family friends kids, and other family’s children. I do enjoy spending time with them and playing with them as well as taking care of them. I know how to easily calm kids down, I am patient and am not easily provoked, and I like to help children that struggle open up more and allow themselves to have fun.

I started watching children at a daycare in 2014 in New Jersey and discovered I had a real passion for it. I did that for several years and then moved to Johnstown in February 2016. Recently, I had the opportunity to watch two toddlers locally for several months. Presently, I am volunteering at my church in my neighborhood in Westmont as an assistant for the religious education program. I am certified with the American RedCross in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/ CPR/ AED. I have a certificate of completion from the Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown for Protecting God’s Children’ , a Certificate of Completion through Office of Child and Youth Protection. All is clear on my driving record and background checks. All references and certifications are furnished upon request.
