The primary role of the nanny is that of childcare and can include household and family responsibilities as agreed upon between the family and the nanny. A nanny is oftentimes the primary care provider while parents are away, but can provide services while parents are home as well.

Family assistants help a parent or family in need of support with household and family responsibilities, usually while the parent is home. This can include organizing, schedule coordination, meal preparation, shopping, laundry, child chore supervision, help with homework, getting children ready for school in the morning, running errands, making calls, setting up appointments and help with events.
