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.

I have 2 nieces and a nephew that I adore. Being around children gives you a fresh perspective that is needed within adult minds. I used to work at a daycare for about a year with kids ranging from month old babies to middle school children. I volunteered for the zoo and helped with the zoo camp. I also was able to teach a couple lessons to second graders. I used to tutor high school students and help them out with their homework. I also used to babysit and value outside time to play.

Hi, I’m an elementary teacher looking for a family that needs child care part-time in their non-smoking home this summer. I have been a nanny for different families over the years. Would like to find a family that wants their children to have a fun active summer such as crafts, games, playing outside, going to parks, pool, library, and the zoo. 😁 Lisa

Hi, my name is Nicole, and I'm an experienced babysitter available to help you and your kids. I started babysitting around the age of 13 and by 16 had a regular after school babysitting job for a family I am still close with today. In past summers I was a summer camp counselor where I was able to work with kids of ages 5-16 of all different backgrounds. I also have experience in long term full time positions. I enjoy reading, writing, and art. Most importantly I love kids! I'm currently taking classes online to get my degree which gives me open availability and a flexible schedule. I have reliable references upon request. I am in Cleveland and have my own transportation so that is not a problem.

I just gave birth to my first child on March 22nd. I'm hoping to become a stay at home mom & I'm interested in watching a few children in my home or yours! For the past 4 years I have been a Medical Assistant for the Cleveland Clinic. I am certified in CPR/First Aid, Communicable Diseases and Child Abuse Prevention and Recognition. Prior to becoming a Medical Assistant I spent time as a babysitter, childcare worker in a center and a nanny. I worked at Lewis Little Folks NASA 's on-site childcare center working with children 6 weeks - 15 years old. As a nanny, some of my duties included meal prep, getting children on & off of the bus, transporting the children to & from school, attending field trips, taking the children to the library, park & zoo. I enjoy reading and listening to and making music. If you are in need of care and think we may be a good match, please don't hesitate to contact me 440-476-2926 Thank you. Christina
