A little bit about me

Hi, This is Harika from India. Compassionate Nanny who provides Exceptional care for your little ones and makes Happy Memories with them. Also, an experienced caretaker/Babysitter who Nurtures your children like family and creates a safe and stimulating environment for the kids.

In my previous experiences, I worked as a nanny for a 10-12 month baby, a 5-12 month boy, and a 1-3 year baby. Had experience working with 4 families and can manage both the kids at a time. Activities like I'll do diaper changing, laundry, arranging the washing milk bottles, preparing , make toddlers play and sleep. I was interacting with children with fun activities like making DIY, making them read books, and taking them for a walk. The main thing is I could become a kid when I'm spending with children and create an amicable and safe environment etc.

I can also help with kitchen work and all other stuff.

Please do reach me at +[phone number hidden] if needed.

Thank you

What is the difference between a nanny and a babysitter?

A nanny is a professional caregiver who is responsible for the full-time care of children in the family's home. A babysitter, on the other hand, is a temporary caregiver who is typically hired for a few hours at a time to care for children while their parents are away. Nannies typically have more experience and training in child care, and may also be responsible for additional tasks such as meal preparation and light housekeeping.
