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.

Lisa started as a nanny for our first daughter. She cared for her within the first year of her life in our home. We were impressed with Lisa’s experience and how she engaged with our daughter. She is so interactive and keeps the day well rounded. She always asked what our preferences were, honored those and kept us very informed on what happened throughout the day. She kept the house tidy and would do other things (take out meat for dinner, start the crock pot, organize). Even after our daughter moved on to daycare, Lisa stayed in touch with us. We have since had 3 more children and she has babysat for us up to the present. She has cared for our kids at all ages (infant, toddler, 8-10 year old). Perfect for all childcare needs

I am flexible on rates, depending on number of children, etc. If money is an issue, let's discuss it and get your childcare needs met. My first job was as a swim instructor and lifeguard instructor. And yes, my CPR and teaching skills are still up to par. I have worked with children who live on the autism spectrum, as well as trauma survivors. I believe strongly in trauma-informed care. This meansthat I prioritize co-regulation, respect for where the child needs to be met, and acknowledgement of their capabilities as young humans, where children are held to a high standard while being supported through learning how to be human. Ive also used with Montessori and Reggio teaching philosophies, both in schools and in swim lessons, as well as in babysitting. I am able to help with homework and homeschooling as well. I have a degree in Social Work. I have two cats, and complementary photos of them come with my services!

I've worked with children for my whole life and along my journey, I discovered that there is a special place in my heart for children. It's now my dream to become a full-time nanny. After all my work with children it is my true calling and with that in mind I went to college and got a degree in Early Childhood Education. I have 7+ years of professional childcare experience, caring for children from infancy through age 5. I have experience providing one-on-one care for an infant at a private home. Looking for a long-term nanny position. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, COVID vaccinated, and I can offer baby sign language.
