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.

Last-minute, school and tutoring, date nights—find the right babysitters for you.

I have been working with kiddos/infants since I was a freshman in High School. I love being active with children, teaching new skills, and finding ways to enrich their lives in the ways that I can. I live in Holland/Zeeland and am able to commute up to 20 miles, depending on the home location. I would love to cover date nights, weekday afternoons or whatever your needs may be. I am also looking for a few consistent days each week to be fully available.

Hello! My name is Willow and I'm 23 years old. I have 7 years of childcare experience with all ages, including time at a professional childcare facility (ages 6 weeks - 11 years). My situation is a little unique, but I know I could be the perfect match for a family looking for Summer help. I am currently located in Constable, but am leaving the country in September to attend graduate school. Due to my relocation to Constable, I've been forced to leave the family that I've been with in Plattsburgh for a year. I love art, music, playing outside, and reading! I know CPR, have my own vehicle, and consider myself to be very reliable. I'm fully vaccinated (Moderna) and am also extremely flexible with working hours (as long as I am getting sufficient hours). If there's any chance that you could use help for the summer, please reach out!
