Nanny vs. Babysitter: Understanding the Difference

A babysitter is ideal for short-term or occasional care, while a nanny is a long-term partner in your child’s daily routine, development, and early education.

The Interview Process & Safety Protocols

1. Ask scenario-based safety questions.
2. Discuss discipline and childcare philosophy.
