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.

Hi! I’m a retired mom with a 20 yr old daughter who is an Elementary Ed student at USF. My husband passed away Nov 2019. I find I have a lot of time on my hands and need some happiness in my life. I love Littles, especially babies. I’m grandma-ish with none of my own. Having had my only daughter at 42, has kept me young at heart. I’m very trustworthy, honest and dependable, social and friendly. Spoiling your child will be no problem. I have cats and a dog, so pets are fine. I own a newer car, thats dependable and safe. Who out there needs a grandma type nanny. Would prefer 20-30 hrs a week.
