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 my name is Shiya, I am the eldest of 4 younger sibling and as a babysitter, several qualities define my capability and effectiveness. Firstly, I prioritize safety above all else, ensuring a secure environment for children under my care through vigilant supervision and hazard awareness. I am also patient and understanding, able to handle challenging situations calmly and with empathy, which helps in managing tantrums or anxieties that children may experience. Creativity is another strength; I engage children in stimulating activities that foster their imagination and development, whether through arts and crafts, storytelling, or educational games. Lastly, I communicate effectively with both children and parents, maintaining open and honest dialogue to ensure everyone's needs are met and expectations are clear. These qualities collectively enable me to provide a nurturing and enjoyable experience for children under my supervision. I also have previous experience in Daycares, as a Home Health Aide, and a Pct .
