The Full Caregiver Services Glossary!


Wouldn’t it be nice if we could be at two places at the same time? Well, we’re all very busy and there’s always room for a helping hand around the house, especially when kids are around. So you’ve got a babysitter but you need more than just the occasional on-call care. Luckily, the care-giver business has much more to offer and can answer all of your needs.

There is Sitter-Care and Nannies, Baby Nurses and Mother’s Helpers and in order to put things straight, let’s go over the available services in today’s care giver business:

Nannies are great when you’re looking for a permanent child care provider on a full-time or a pre-set schedule.

Babysitters work for you on a per-diem, on-call or emergency basis and are recommended for families who live on a changing schedule and do not require a full time attention.

Baby Nurses, or Newborn Specialists work with new moms in their home or even as early as in the hospital. These specialists can be a great help for moms heading back to work after the usual maternity leave and can live-in or live-out, all according to your requirements.

A Mother’s Helper or a Kid’s Helper is the best solution for a stay-at-home parent who’s looking for that extra hand around the house. A Mother’s Helper is different than a Nanny or Babysitter because they can help with all of your daily life aspects, including child care, errands, easy meal preparation and light house work.
