Nannies are dedicated caregivers who provide ongoing childcare services with a consistent schedule. They have additional duties and responsibilities beyond occasional sitting, focusing on the well-being and development of children under their care.

‍Babysitters are individuals who are typically called upon for occasional childcare needs, such as date nights or running errands. They may also provide care for a full day when required. Unlike nannies, babysitters usually have fewer responsibilities and are primarily present to spend time with the children and ensure their well-being while the parents are away.
