Nanny
Nannie/ Nounou
Providing care for one or more children in a family. Today, modern nannies, like other domestic workers, may live in or out of the house depending on their circumstances and those of their employers. Professional nannies are usually certified in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, qualified in First Aid, and have a degree or extensive training in child development.
A governess, in contrast to a nanny, concentrates on teaching and training children.
