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.

Hello! My name is Brittany. I’ve always loved children, since I was one myself. I remember how excited I was to take the Red Cross Babysitting and Childcare Training Course the summer going into 6th grade. Ever since then I have always found myself working with children in some capacity. From those early days babysitting, then enjoying volunteering as a Kid’s Class Instructor at the Kung Fu Academy I attended throughout my childhood and teen years. I found my first job at a Potterville Pottery, primarily instructing kids and adults in Ceramics and Acrylic Painting. There I maintained weekly private lessons with multiple students, ranging from 6 years old to High School age. All throughout my teen and early college years I maintained contact with around five families who I would provide as needed babysitting services for. As I wanted to cultivate the joy I found in caring for children, I found my first full-time job as a private caregiver for a lovely family a few towns away. It cemented how I truly enjoyed guiding children to be their very best. Now, I seek to continue my childcare career. From April to October, I manage a busy State Park Campground. Through the winters I provide childcare services for multiple families, or sometimes one full-time. While the care of children may be the primary goal of having a Nanny, I recognize the support I can provide to the whole family. I am a very neat person, and I love to clean. Often while a baby naps or a toddler has some independent quiet time, I seek to tidy the living spaces, keep the kitchen sink shining, and help with other chores to keep the space as inviting as possible for the family. I am a very patient, calm, kind soul, and I feel the need to demonstrate that in caring for children. I would love to connect with you and your family.

I want to be a care giver because I enjoy creating safe spaces to nurture the innate curiosity, creativity and spark of light within children. Any fun, or practical learning experiences done in play can be an adventure to explore. I promote artistic and building activities that utilize imagination, reading and find fun ways to take care of responsibilities, like cleaning up. I am looking for a chance to share my loving patience and kindness with children and to be a source of support for busy parents.
