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.

Hi there! I’m Annie — a compassionate, experienced childcare provider with over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for children from newborns to pre-teens. I’ve always loved being a sitter because I see every child as their own little universe — full of curiosity, creativity, and potential. Getting to support that growth and help them feel safe, seen, and confident is what keeps me passionate about this work. My childcare journey has included everything from full-time nannying and multiple overnight stays to classroom work as a one-on-one special education assistant. I’ve supported children with behavioral disorders, ADHD, autism, and trauma backgrounds, and I’m skilled at creating calm, structured, and nurturing environments where kids can thrive. In addition to my years of experience, I bring patience, emotional intelligence, and strong communication skills. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, have reliable transportation, and pride myself on being dependable, creative, and engaged — whether we’re doing crafts, reading stories, or exploring outdoors. If you’re looking for someone who balances warmth with professionalism and truly loves helping children grow, I’d love to connect with your family.
