What a name for just being paid to take care of a baby

It sound fairly similar to foster care.

It more or less is. Some mothers would pay someone to look after their infants. The dark side is the ones who would pay up front.

Yeah... I'm not clicking on that one.

Maybe this is where the word “baby sitting” came from?
