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 am a recent high school graduate with a genuine love for children and caring for them. I have over six years of experience with all ages, particularly babies and toddlers. I am comfortable with all types of personalities and enjoy building connections with both children and their parents through communication and a supportive environment. I have previously been both CPR and first aid certified, and am currently renewing them. I am skilled in diaper changes, meals, homework and project help, as well as house keeping duties. I am patient, creative, energetic, and reliable. I have my own vehicle and can run errands as needed. Feel free to contact me for references or to set up a call!

I am a mom and bonus mom to 5 young adults, a Memaw to a 9-month-old, and a professional nanny with over 25 years of childcare experience. I am infant, child and adult CPR, First Aid and AED certified, with a clean background check and motor vehicle record. I’m currently looking to add occasional childcare to my schedule, including date nights, evenings, weekends, school/daycare closures, and those times when your regular childcare provider is unavailable. My availability varies from month to month, so I keep my Sittercity calendar updated with the specific dates I have available. Over the years, I’ve cared for children from newborns through school age and have experience with children of all abilities and a variety of medical and developmental needs. I’m comfortable with everything from bottles, naps and diaper changes to homework, playtime, meals and keeping busy little ones entertained. As a professional nanny, I take childcare seriously, but I also believe kids should have fun and feel comfortable with the person caring for them. My goal is to provide dependable, safe and loving care while giving parents the peace of mind that their children are in experienced hands. If you’re looking for someone you can call for an occasional evening out, weekend plans, backup childcare or simply need an experienced sitter you can feel comfortable leaving your children with, I’d love to connect!

Hi, I'm Rebecca, and I am pleased to be offering weekend date night babysitting! I am available Fridays after 6 pm and all day on Saturdays. I even offer overnights, although I need to be off by 7 am on Sundays. I am happy to do a few meetups or even trial runs of babysitting for a couple hours to make sure your children are comfortable with me before you leave them for a longer time. I love babies, and am experienced with baby wearing, paced feeding, baby led weaning, formula feeding, and feeding pumped milk. I would love to care for your infant the way *you* want me to. For toddlers and older kids, my favorite things to do include outdoor play, books, and imaginary play (blocks, dress up, etc) I love to watch children learn new things and discover the world, and it's an honor to be a part of that process. I charge $15-$20 an hour for date night babysitting, and my rates for overnights are: $175 for 6 pm on Friday to 9 am Saturday and then $150 for 6 pm on Saturday to 7 am Sunday.
