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.

Lisa started as a nanny for our first daughter. She cared for her within the first year of her life in our home. We were impressed with Lisa’s experience and how she engaged with our daughter. She is so interactive and keeps the day well rounded. She always asked what our preferences were, honored those and kept us very informed on what happened throughout the day. She kept the house tidy and would do other things (take out meat for dinner, start the crock pot, organize). Even after our daughter moved on to daycare, Lisa stayed in touch with us. We have since had 3 more children and she has babysat for us up to the present. She has cared for our kids at all ages (infant, toddler, 8-10 year old). Perfect for all childcare needs

Hi! My name is Hayley. I have over 6 years of childcare experience and have spent the last 3 years working as a full-time nanny for two young children. My responsibilities have included meal preparation, educational activities, transportation, maintaining routines, light housekeeping, and creating a safe, nurturing environment for the children in my care. I also have a 3-year-old daughter, which has given me valuable hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and child development. I am reliable, patient, comfortable with pets, have my own transportation, and truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and have fun.

Hi families! I am a warm, fun, and highly confident nanny who truly loves what I do. I'm not afraid of hard work-whether that's juggling multiple kiddos, whipping up a healthy meal, or tidying up the kitchen. I genuinely take pride in cooking and cleaning; I love making delicious, healthy, kid-friendly meals that even picky eaters will enjoy! I have over 4 years of professional experience: I taught English at a school in Brazil for 2 years, then moved to the US and worked as an au pair for 2 amazing years with a family of 3 children (a newborn, 3yo and 5yo). Currently, I am nannying a sweet baby who I started with at just 6w old-she is now 6 months, so I have extensive infant experience! I am incredibly crafty, love outdoor play, and adore creating fun learning activities. I can't wait to meet my next great family! I have wonderful references from my previous families! To respect their busy schedules, I prefer to share those after we've had a chance to meet and chat a little!
