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.

I am a 24 year old student who has experience teaching ski lessons as a ski instructor and got the most hours two years in a row for 3 and 4 year old kids because I was so good with them. I also coached the younger kids on the ski race team and nannied for the same family for 4 years. From the time their daughter was about 7 months old until just before her 5th birthday when I had to move for school. I adore kids and want to be a teacher.

I am a mom; A am a super mom really:) I raised three children on my own. They are now teens and living with their dad to get a different taste of life. I'm now raising, with my husband, a 2 year old and a 9 year old. Absolutely loving the second round of beautiful child rearing. Experience helps! My two year old would be with me during my nanny post. We are looking to be with other toddlers as much outdoors as possible. Yours or my place for a home base, depending on comfort of your child or children. Then Children's Museum and other fun places with the use of my handy dandy 2016 Sienna Van. We like to eat healthy whole foods as much as possible. If at your place, I can do light duty cleaning of course. And would definitely have the place looking better or how we found it. My toddler: loves outdoors, very good at sharing (as sharing goes with young people), good communication skills and good listener, naps vary from 1.5-2hrs in afternoon, and what else....she's a cutie and she likes kids! Also, I'm interested in keeping high standards in sanitation. Presently, I am looking into doing CPR classes.
