Nanny: Difference between revisions

In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', nannies or babysitters were not initially present in the base game, but were added in an update released on July 14, 2016.<ref>[http://simsvip.com/2016/07/14/sims-4-new-game-patch-july-14th-2016/ The Sims 4: New Game Patch (July 14th, 2016)] at SimsVIP.</ref> Nannies are random [[young adult]], [[adult]], or [[elder]] townies that will come take care of the [[baby]]/[[child]] when a Sim calls for the service, and can be male or female. Prior to this update, babies would automatically be sent to daycare when all other Sims had left the lot. Children could be left alone with babies, but cannot effectively meet a baby's needs. Based on the announcement post at thesims.com<ref>https://www.thesims.com/news/sims-4-nanny-available</ref>, it appears that this feature is still present, and that hiring a nanny is optional.
