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.

Hello my name is Kiarra I am 23 years old and I have a bachelors degree in psychology which I plan to use and work with kids in the future because I absolutely love them! However things are on a bit of a hold because I’ve welcomed my own bundle of joy into the world this past April and I’m trying to save a bit while staying home. I have been a babysitter since I was 9 years old and I have also worked at a few daycares where I would run classrooms and come up with fun activities for the kids to do. From working in the daycare I have all of my clearances and some training, I am very cautious and responsible and will care for your kids and ensure their safety, as well as fun, at all times as if they were my own! I look forward to helping!

Hi! My name is Hailey! I’m 25. New to the Dayton area. Experience: - Before I moved to Dayton, I worked in a 2-year-old classroom at a Montessori school in Chicago. There I learned more about child-led learning. - I have loved my experience working with kids for 10+ years. I thoroughly enjoyed working at Primrose School.

While nannying I made breakfast and lunch, drove the boys to camp/practices, took them to parks, helped with daily workbooks and reading, etc. - I was also a regular weekend babysitter for at least a dozen families ranging in age and family size. I have completed many student teaching hours in elementary schools, where I tutored kids in math and reading and administered one-on-one phonetic and math tests.
