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 am Emma Viggiani. I currently live in Fairport, NY, and I am a middle school ENL teacher in Brighton. I graduated from Niagara University in 2023 with my degree TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) with a minor in dance. I am currently working on my masters degree in Literacy from SUNY Brockport. I have worked with children since I was little and absolutely love the education field. I have a lot of experience working with students at my job, in after school programs, volunteering, and being an assistant in primary, elementary, middle and high schools. I love creating fun activities for children of all ages, specifically ones that get them away from the screens and immersed with the activity and the people around them. Going outside and enjoying nature is also important and something I would do when it is nice out!

I love being a caregiver because there is nothing more rewarding than creating a safe, positive environment where children can truly thrive. Every child has a unique personality and way of learning, and I love discovering what makes them click—whether that's through creative play, diving into a good book, or helping them master a new skill. For me, babysitting isn't just about supervision; it's about providing parents with total peace of mind and being a reliable, fun, and supportive presence in a child's life. What experience do you have? I have eight years of professional experience working with children across a wide range of ages and developmental stages. My background includes: Preschool (3 years): Designing engaging activities and building foundational social-emotional skills for early learners. Elementary Fieldwork (1 year): Supporting third-grade students with academic routines and classroom engagement. Special Education (4 years): Working as a licensed teacher for grades 2–6, where I specialize in adapting instruction, maintaining structured environments, and supporting diverse learning styles." What skills and training do you have? As a professional educator, I bring a high level of specialized training and practical skill to childcare: Advanced Education: I hold a Master’s degree and a Child Development Associate (CDA) credential, giving me a deep understanding of early childhood and youth development. Specialized Instruction: I am a licensed New York State Special Education Teacher, meaning I am highly skilled in behavior management, patience, and supporting children with diverse learning, physical, or emotional needs. Practical Skills: I excel at creating structured daily routines, providing homework help/tutoring, planning age-appropriate crafts and activities, and maintaining a safe environment. I also have reliable transportation.
