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.

I’m a senior in Highschool and have a strong passion for taking care of children. I’ve had in school CPR training as well as experience with childcare in a child development course. I take online college courses through Kent State University, so I leave school at 10:45 in the morning. My schedule makes me very flexible. I recently got my license, so I am currently not completely comfortable driving with children but as time goes on and I gain experience I will be. I am skilled at cooking, cleaning, laundry, tutoring etc. My family is full of children and over the years I have gained experience with taking care of them. I am very punctual and sociable, and am susceptible to instruction and rules. If you are interested please send me a message/ request a meeting! (either in person or call!).

Hi I am Carole I was a stay at home mom For 12 years. I have 4 children,two are still in high school. I have been a nanny for 3 years with a family. The child is in full day kindergarten and that is why I no longer Nanny for them. I am still in contact with them and will help out when needed. I was responsible for preparing breakfast and lunch for the child and I prepared dinner for the family since they worked late hours inside their home. I love to bake so I would make cookies and homemade soft pretzels with the child. I love toys! I have a large collection of vintage toys saved from my children, I would bring them and let the child keep them for a week. I believe in learning from play. I also love to do crafts. We would make things on all the holidays for the child's parents as gifts. I volunteered at my children's elementary school for years. I helped with craft organized parties and helped with the reading program. I love books and love to read to children. I have also read for story time at my local library I also love Animals. We have quite a zoo. We have 3 guinea pigs, A Russian tortoise,2 Axolotls and a very spoiled and sweet 1 year old Jackabee dog. I am looking for part time work,one or two days is what would be an ideal situation for me.
