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.

I currently care for a three-year-old child, so I have experience with this age and I can easily adapt to other ages. I have no problem walking the animals and my English is not perfect

Hello families! I would love to help you out as a part-time nanny for your 0 - 3 year old. I am passionate about helping babies and children learn through play. I have experience working at the VINS summer camp, helping children in schools, and being full-time mom to my almost-2 year old. I have just updated my First Aid and CPR certifications. Being in the midst of parenting a toddler gives me an intensive example of what all the stages of a young child's life can be like. I would look forward to guiding your child in exploring the world and developing their unique self. Examples of activities I enjoy with babies and children are safe sensory explorations of everyday toys and objects or materials, creative cooking, exploring and observing nature outdoors, and music with movement. Since my daughter would be joining, our children would have the opportunity to learn from each other. I also offer the option to attend a variety of local storytimes and playgroups. Please let me know if you are interested or would like any more information. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you. Hannah

I have 6+ years of professional childcare experience. I’ve worked in daycares with infants, toddlers, and preschool age and I was a supervisor at an after school program with kids ages 5-12. I have my own baby boy who is 9 months old. I’m CPR and first aid certified, comfortable with pets, have my own vehicle and a typically flexible schedule, though I am currently a full time nanny of 3 boys who are 10, 7, and 2 years.
