Q: How much does it cost to hire a babysitter?

The cost of hiring a babysitter in the United States varies based on factors such as location, number of children, and the babysitter’s experience. On average, parents can expect to pay between $18 to $29 per hour for one child, with babysitter rates increasing by $1 to $3 per hour for each additional child. It’s important to note that last-minute bookings may incur higher rates, typically an additional $2 to $3 per hour.

Q: What is the difference between a babysitter and a nanny?

The main difference between a babysitter and a nanny is the level of responsibility and commitment. Babysitters typically provide short-term or occasional care, often during evenings or weekends, and focus on supervising children for a few hours at a time. Nannies are usually employed on a regular schedule and may take on a broader role, including daily routines, meal prep, transportation, and more.

My name is Maria Gaona. I am a mother of 3 and have over 15 years of hands on experience in child care ranging from infancy to teenagers. I currently hold a position with Denver public schools and have been working with elementary school children since 2018 caring for and tending to children in general education and special needs classrooms. I am CPR certified and have basic first aid experience. I am very patient, compassionate, enthusiastic and a nurturer by nature. This has allowed me to build long lasting relationships with the children and families that I work and interact with at school. I am exited to start this journey doing what I love and building long lasting relationships.
