FAQs for finding a part time babysitter near you
What is a part-time babysitter?
Part-time babysitting is no different than normal babysitting, but it is different from a full-time nanny. You may only need to hire a part-time sitter for the occasional special occasion or for extra help everyday after school—your family’s babysitting needs are unique to you.
What is an occasional babysitter?
If someone doesn’t require full-time care, they can hire an occasional babysitter or a part-time babysitter. An occasional babysitter is a babysitter you only hire on an as-need basis. For example, if someone wants to hire a babysitter to watch their kids while they enjoy a date night or go to a doctor’s appointment they can. If you need a last-minute babysitter, an occasional babysitter can come in handy.
