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.

I have always wanted to be a babysitter since I was young, I've always loved younger kiddos. I started babysitting at my church and with my mom or parent helping when I was 13. I got hired at a gym day care when I was 15 and have worked there since, working with kids 6 weeks to 12 years. I am comfortable with ages and walks of life. I am cpr and first aid trained. I am happy to be an occasional sitter for any family, a somewhat consistent schedule so I can save time for you! If you think we'd be a good fit please reach out!

I love being a sitter, it is an amazing feeling to make a meaningful difference in a child’s day-to-day life. I am very energetic and passionate, i truly love doing my job and always have a smile on my face. I provided childcare for two children, ages three and four, for over one year, supporting their daily routines, early learning activities, and social-emotional development. I later worked as an Infant and Toddler Teacher at a daycare center for eight months, where I created a safe, nurturing environment. I also took child development classes in high school and am currently studying it while in college as my major. I love caring for children and I am so excited to get back into childcare! I am CPR and first aid certified, and have had hands on practice.
