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.

I have baby sit most of my life especially with being the oldest I had a lot of responsibilities growing up. I love kids especially since it’s been kind of hard for me to have my own. My grandma used to baby sit and usually I was the one doing all of the work but it helps me for when I’m going to have my family

Hi! I am McKenzie, I have been a sitter for 6 years now, so I have tons of experience with ages newborn-7 years and all types of children. I currently work as a full-time nanny to a 3 year old boy and I pick his sister up from school every afternoon, but my schedule is super inconsistent so I am looking for another family that can provide a more consistent schedule. I have a son of my own that is 10 months old, he is a very social baby that loves to play with other children so I am hoping to find a family that would be okay with my son coming along as well. Potty training and crib training are both things I am very skilled at. My son has been crib trained since 6 months, I started intro to potty at 8 months and now at 10 months he uses the potty multiple times during the day, although he will have occasional accidents here and there if I am busy and cannot watch closely for the cues. I am very good with children and love to teach kids of all ages, however I particularly have the most fun with smaller babies/toddlers. I am also most familiar with ages newborn-3 years of age. I love teaching them to eat (I done BLW with my son) use the potty, sleep in their own beds, learn to say new words, reading to them, all of it is so fun!!! I have my own vehicle, I am patient, I am passionate about my work with children, I am devoted to this field of work, I love to really pour into the children under my care, and I love to build a bond with both the child/children and the parents as well. Feel free to contact me for references or to set up an appointment for us to meet!
