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’m a 48 year old mom of 7 kid’s all raised, but the 2 still in the nest. I started babysitting at the age of 11 and started nanny school at the age of 18. Worked full-time as a nanny until I had my first child then started working part-time and volunteering at head starts, pre-schools, and Sunday school classes. As I got older I started working at daycares as a lead teacher for ages 0-12 years. In between working at daycares I worked as a para educator and at book, toy, and game store called Wishes in Washington. Then, as I was working my way up to becoming a CNA, I held multiple jobs; working at Safeway, in housekeeping, and as a dietary aid! Eventually becoming an in home caregiver. I worked hard at my jobs, always trying to improve my self in one way or another. When I’m working my focus is to make sure my clients priorities are met to a dime! I love not just watching the children, but to teach them so they are ready for preschool/ kindergarten or the following grade they will be attending!
