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.

We had the absolute pleasure to work with Ms. Joy over the past 8 months while living in Florida and she has been amazing. Our family is moving so we have to say good-bye but we highly recommend Joy for any family looking for an occasional sitter. She was very fast and thorough during the interview process, had no problem with the background check and meeting in-person for the interview. Our two children immediately took to Joy and she built such amazing rapport with both of them. She stays fully engaged in all activities, assists with daily routines and provides updates and a synopsis of the day/night. She was always on time, stayed as long as we needed her and was extremely flexible. A true gem for a sitter! She also loves dogs and our large cane corso took to her right away as well. Any family would be lucky to have Ms. Joy in their lives to help!

Hi, I’m Brooke! I have over 10 years of experience as a Personal Care Assistant, providing compassionate, hands-on care, and I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor of Social Work with a concentration in Psychology and Mental Health. Caring for others isn’t just my job history — it’s genuinely what I love to do. I bring patience, warmth, and reliability to every family I work with. My background means I’m comfortable with everything from daily routines and meal prep to handling the unexpected calmly. I’m also CPR-aware of safety needs from my healthcare background, detail-oriented from running my own cleaning business, and great at keeping kids engaged — as an avid reader, I especially love story time and making reading fun. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every home and family with respect. I’d love to meet your family and learn how I can help!

I have experience caring for children of various ages through both volunteer and paid childcare roles. Additionally, I am CPR/AED/First-Aid Certified. I regularly help in a church nursery, where I care for infants and young children by providing a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment. I also volunteered as a helper at a Role Model young girls camp, where I mentored and supervised children while leading activities and encouraging positive relationships. In addition, I have completed other occasional babysitting jobs for families, giving me experience with daily routines and ensuring children’s safety and well-being. These experiences have strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to connect with children and work with parents.
