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! I currently teach kindergarten part time and am looking to help a family with after school care, all day Thursday care, or summer hours. In the past I have been a special needs aid for Germantown elementary schools, which led me to teach since I loved it! My previous experience also includes being a full time nanny for twin boys from the age of 7 months til they turned 2. I am comfortable with all animals, have my own transportation, and love to create games and activities. Let me know if you’re interested!

I enjoy being with children and I find it fulfilling when I’m able to teach them new things. I have worked as a camp counselor over the summer at EPIC martial arts which is located in Woodstock GA, I have moved here to Wisconsin to live with my mother and go to school, I am studying interior design. I know how to keeping kids busy with either crafts or an activity. I am not a huge fan of electronics I would rather go do something outside or an activity or craft I don’t mind the TV for a movie though. I know how to deal with injuries and know how to deal with conflict or frustration. If there is a conflict I will listen to all sides and take action form there and if there is frustration I will help calm the situation. If you need help with pets or cleaning just let me know and I can help cook meals if you’d like me to.

I absolutely LOVE working with children!!! I used to work at a daycare full-time, and I worked for a wonderful family last year for almost 6 months watching there 2 boys 3 days a week minimum until they moved to a different city. Otherwise, I would still be working for them, because the family really liked me and still does, and the boys both loved me, especially the 3 year old, seeing as he still talks about me almost a year later. I have a letter of recommendation, in which, the wife wrote for me. I have experience working with infants, as well as potty training. The mom of the two boys would speak well of me potty training her oldest son, seeing as the other boy was almost a year old when my time with them ended. Therefore, he was still in diapers when I left, but she would love it if I were able to be there to potty train him too, when he is old enough. I would love to be a part of your family, if it's a good fit for all of us, because I want your family to have the proper caretaker working with your child/children that best fits their needs, seeing as that is what I would be there for. I also enjoy cooking and cleaning, and cleaning up before I leave is a non-negotiable, because I like my work area to be clean, as well as neat and tidy, especially when the job is complete for the day. I want you to come home to a clean environment as well.

Dedicated, patient, and experienced caregiver with 5 years of hands-on childcare experience. As a mother of two young daughters (ages 5 and 2), I have developed strong skills in supporting children’s daily routines, emotional needs, and developmental growth. Caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life, and I am committed to making childcare my long-term career. I specialize in infant and toddler care, including diaper changing, meal preparation, feeding, nap and sleep schedules, and creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I enjoy building positive relationships with children through play, learning activities, and structure. I also have my own reliable car and can provide school pick-ups and drop-offs when needed. I currently offer care from my home, and parents are welcome to visit the space to see where their child will be spending their time. To keep families updated, I send photos and short updates throughout the day, showing activities, meals, playtime, and anything important that happens. I am dedicated, trustworthy, and passionate about childcare. I would love the opportunity to support your family. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions—I look forward to connecting with you. If it’s required for the background check (BGC, BGC+, or MVR), once I get my first job I will complete all of them
