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.

Working with kids has always been the most fun and rewarding job. It's a win win to help out parents and learn from the kids! Which is why I have been nannying or working with children in some capacity for 8 years and will continue on in the future!

Hi there! I am a 32 year old fun and experienced nanny. I was a nanny for several years in Boulder, Colorado for two wonderful families. I then chose to further my career in Applied Behavioral Analysis, accumulating over 7 years of working with children to modify their behavior. I am currently the Behavior Intervention Specialist at Bennington Elementary School. It’s my summer break and I am looking to assist a family with childcare! I love to engage with each child’s interests and make them a priority in making plans for activities. I love participating in music, crafts, being outdoors and being imaginative with kids. I am a responsible caregiver, thinking foremost of safety and respect in all actions. I additionally have lots of experience in managing conflict with children and working with any problem behaviors. Most of all, I truly care about children and their lives. I aim to help any way I can.
