Q: What’s the difference between a nanny and a babysitter?

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.

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.
