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.

Anna was great! My kids love her and she was so easy to talk to and just get acclimated with. She really gave me peace of mind knowing my kiddo was taken care of while I worked. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

I love working with children and helping them feel safe, supported, and confident while having fun. As a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), I have experience working with children and teens ages 3 to 17, including those with autism and ADHD. My work has taught me to be patient, adaptable, and understanding of each child's unique needs while using positive behavior support and effective communication. I am CPR and First Aid certified and committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. Whether it's helping with homework, preparing simple meals, engaging in creative activities, or following established routines, I strive to build trusting relationships with both children and their families so parents can feel confident their children are in caring and capable hands.
