[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on what type of sitter you are hiring. The high school sitters that we have are by far my kid's favorite. They run and play with them. They all have a grand time. They are also good with reading homework and basic stuff. If the kids do not want to do the homework or there are other issues, they don't know how to handle it. Costs around $10-$12. We've hired our former nanny occasionally for sitting, more to keep in touch. Its a night and day difference. Kids do their homework, house is spotless, everything is done and its calm when we get home. Kids did not have as much fun and request the high school sitter. Cost $15.[/quote] Perfect illustration of one of the clear differences between a nanny and a sitter: A nanny is more of a substitute parent (if she's properly trained and experienced), while a sitter is more of a "big sis" type. This is why nannies cost much more than a sitters. [/quote] This.[/quote]
