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.

Hi! My name is Mekymbria (Kym preferably) and I have been in the childcare field for about 3 years. I started off in a school age setting where I worked with elementary students falling behind in their curriculum. Eventually, I transitioned to a daycare setting where I worked with the most amazing toddlers for 2 years! I loved working with the kids there and desired to learn more about ALL kids. I currently have my RBT certification and I am in school working to become a BCBA as helping children on the spectrum is something I am extremely passionate about.

Hello! My name is Joshalyn, and I have over 10 years of experience working in childcare settings, along with being a mom to two wonderful kids of my own (ages 7 and 11). Growing up in a large family with 7 siblings gave me hands-on experience from an early age with children of all ages—from infants to teens. I am CPR certified and confident in providing a safe, nurturing, and structured environment. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable helping as a household manager—keeping things running smoothly with cooking, cleaning, errands, and organizing daily routines. I enjoy planning engaging activities, encouraging learning through play, and supporting healthy habits. Families I’ve worked with describe me as dependable, caring, and flexible. I understand the balance of being reliable for parents while also creating a warm and fun environment for children to grow and thrive in. I would love the opportunity to support your family, not only by caring for your children but also by helping make home life a little easier.
