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.

Fatima was amazing! My 10 month, 2, and 4-year-old absolutely loved her! She was on time and was great at interacting with the kids. Already have planned on rebooking for more date nights!

Care bio Hello! Let me tell you a little about myself. My husband, our 5 year old daughter, pets and I live in middle TN. We enjoy being active outside, hiking, making music and doing yoga. We are a rescue family and volunteer with a local dog rescue, pet sit and have rescues of our own. I have been working with children, as a nanny and a teacher, for over 19 years. I grew up teaching Sunday school and VBS then began babysitting in 5th grade. In 2008, I began my journey as a nanny. In 2012, I began teaching preschool. In 2016, I started teaching piano lessons. Teaching and working with children is my passion. I am trained in various teaching styles and tailor my approach to each child’s specific needs. Montessori, Reggio Emilia and Waldorf teaching styles are my favorites. I am CPR / First Aid / AED certified. I have a safe, reliable car. Working with children and their families is truly my passion. I look forward to getting to know your family!

Hi I’m Casey I’m 22 yrs old. Why I love babysitting is because I love being around kids and everything. When I got to church camp every year the kids from the previous year love seeing and getting to spend time with me during that week.

I am new to Nashville, but am loving it as a city! I recently graduated from Bentley University in May of 2013. I have been babysitting since I was about 13 for my three cousins. Their ages now range from 6-16 but I have been taking care of the two younger ones since they were born. Last summer,I took care of three children in Westborough, Massachusetts for five months. The twins were 6 and the older daughter was 8. This was full-time during the summer and after school once school started. We would go for trips to the local parks and playgrounds, spend some afternoons at the library, and have "tutor time" once a week with the twins when their sister had her reading tutor come by. I personally think it greatly helped them as they were just starting kindergarten and already had a huge head start in writing and math.

Hi Parents! My name is Katie Zabukovec. I have been a nanny on and off for the past decade, as well as having my own rowdy boy named August. He would have to come with me, but he is a sweetheart and loves to play with other kiddos! I have open availability, and would love to find a family where I can be a long term help!
