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.

Hi, I’m Johnetta! 💕 I’m a caring, trustworthy, reliable, and hands-on childcare provider with over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’m a former Early Head Start Lead Teacher with training in Early Childhood Education and Development, and I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. I provide childcare in my own safe, clean, kid-friendly home, which is set up specifically for children to feel comfortable, stay active, and enjoy themselves while their parents are away. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, school-aged children, siblings, twins, and children with additional needs. My childcare setting includes age-appropriate toys, books, learning activities, games, puzzles, creative play, outdoor play, and other activities that keep children engaged throughout the day. I enjoy helping children learn, grow, play, and feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I also believe communication with families is very important, so I enjoy providing parents with updates throughout the day. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your family and your childcare needs! 💕

Ms netta was great with my two year old twins! She is very attentive, and send lots of updates while caring for my children. She does date nights, weekends, weekdays, work hours, even watched my boys as early at 5 am! Would definitely recommend her to someone looking for care.

Hi, I'm Madison! I'm a college student who has always enjoyed babysitting. Even as a kid, l always had younger children sitting around me at church. I’ve been consistently babysitting for a family with three children the past year. Whether you want me to watch, entertain, or teach, I'll meet your needs. Your children are very safe with me, and I always aim to have a fun time! While I'm open to babysitting any family, I'm Christian if that matters to you! I also love pets and won't mind caring for them as well! I have a cat of my own and grew up with dogs:)
