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.

Hey everyone! I have been babysitting and nannying for as long as I can remember, I love kids. I have worked with newborns up to 14 years old, so I am very comfortable with all ages. I graduated from Florida State University in December with my Master of Science in Criminology. I have taught swimming and diving lessons so I am comfortable with kids doing all outdoor activities. Depending on the child’s age I like to read books, go outside, and play enriching games. I am a very interactive babysitter! I am vaccinated and I attend church regularly, so if that is something you are looking for, I offer that! I also have reliable transportation and a clean driving record! I can't wait to meet you and your little ones!

I love being a caregiver, as I find children to be a breath of fresh air,.everything is new and fun for them.They love unconditionally, don't hold a grudge, and are very straightforward. That being said I have been employed for over twenty years working with children in different capacities. First of all, I am a mother of three, grandmother of four, and great-grandmother of twins. I have worked as a licensed therapeutic foster parent for approximately 12 years. The children in my care ranged in age from 1 month to 18 years I found this work to be both a challenge and a blessing In addition I was a teacher of 4-5 year olds, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade. I taught for six years, and was very fond of it. The children were so eager to learn and a joy to behold. I was also employed as a Child & Family Therapist for over two years. I was particularly fond of family therapy addressing the needs of a family as a whole. Lastly, I was an Early Intervention Specialist, with children age birth to 3 years. I diagnosed developmental delays in all five areas of development, with particular emphasis on Cognitive and Social Emotional Development. I provided age-appropriate playful activities to enhance learning and help children approach their optimal developmental level. All of my years of experience and study ( I have a Bachelor"s degree in Early Childhood Education, and a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology) have prepared me to become an experienced, excellent nanny for your child and his or her needs. I am CPR certified, timely and always strive for competence in my work. I am pleased that you are considering me as a caregiver for your most precious child, so that I will provide outstanding nanny services to you and your family My phone # is: 352-436-2282. Available immediately.
