A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Lydia and I’m currently a student with daytime availability looking for a nanny job. I’m open to anything ranging from occasional babysitting or full time nannying. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and have a variety of experience.


I have one year of working as a teacher at daycares. I worked in the 4-5 year-old and school age classrooms. I had up to 21 students in my classroom at a time. My responsibilities included classroom management, planning and transitioning students through the daily schedule, facilitating learning activities and crafts, and managing meals and naptime.


Additionally, I have 3 years of babysitting experience, ranging from ages 6 months to 11 years-old. This includes a variety of bedtime routines, and spending the full day with kids. I helped with meals, homework, and activities from crafts to pool and playground time.

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a highly experienced and versatile nanny who truly enjoys working with children of all ages. I offer more than just childcare — I also cook, clean, handle pickups and drop-offs, assist with bath time, and more, depending on your family's needs. If selected, I prefer to meet the children first to build a connection, and then have a clear conversation with the parents about expectations and routines to ensure we're all on the same page. Looking forward to finding the right fit!

A little bit about me

I have hands-on experience caring for children of different ages through helping raise my four nephews, who are 6 years, 5 years, 3 years, and 7 months old. I regularly take care of them when their parents have appointments, work, or school commitments. This includes preparing meals and bottles, changing diapers, helping with naps, keeping them entertained with age-appropriate activities, and making sure they are always safe and comfortable.
Through this experience, I’ve learned patience, responsibility, and how to understand the different needs of infants, toddlers, and young kids. I truly enjoy being around children and creating a calm, positive, and fun environment for them.
I also have a reliable car for transportation and I’m comfortable cooking simple, healthy meals for kids when needed

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Newark, DE

Before beginning the search for a babysitter, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a babysitter is the right choice for your child care needs. There are lots of benefits to hiring a babysitter such as getting the flexibility of having some more time for yourself or with your partner. When hiring a babysitter, first, you should explore the differences between a nanny and a babysitter. If you’re looking for occasional child care, babysitters are the right choice for you, but if you’re looking for more frequent care, a nanny may be better for your needs.

From there, you can think about what you expect your babysitter to handle so that you can create a profile for nannies to reach out to you. The boundaries for babysitters’ duties can vary from family to family. However, in general, a babysitter is responsible for making sure your kids’ needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example to housekeeping, laundry, or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your babysitter before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location in Newark can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Newark Babysitter Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective babysitters, the next step is to conduct an interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some babysitter interview questions to consider asking:

  • Do you have experience being a babysitter?
  • What sort of household tasks are you open and comfortable doing?
  • Do you have any references?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Delaware?
  • Do you have a Delaware driver’s license? Do you own a car?
  • How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?

During the hiring process, it’s essential to ask for references and by asking their references questions you gain a better understanding of they will fit in your family. As you get closer to hiring a nanny, be sure to run a background check to ensure your kids are in good hands. When evaluating a babysitter that you’re considering hiring, make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your babysitter. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around babysitter responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming!

And of course, as you learn how to hire a babysitter, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
