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 Danica Holtan and I have years of experience working with children from infants to middle schoolers. I have training in CPR and I used to be a Head Teacher for various schools. I still babysit for some of my old students and they are great references. My background is in Teaching, Entertainment and Events. I have worked for companies such as Disney Cruise Line, Radio Disney and Walt Disney World which all involved working directly with children and families. I would love to find a family I can have a consistent schedule with where the children have that opportunity to have fun, play and learn without going from one babysitter to the next. I believe in consistency and dedication. If I have sent my application over to you, it is because I would love to have the opportunity to meet! Thank you! Danica
