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

How early should I book a babysitter?
How early you should book a babysitter depends on when and how long you need care. For busy times like weekends, holidays, or evenings, it can help to reach out several days in advance. If you need ongoing or recurring help, contacting sitters ahead of time gives you more options and allows you to schedule interviews and meet-and-greets. For last-minute care, many babysitters in Dayton offer flexible or same-day availability.
