A little bit about me…

Hello, I am a college student at Florida Southern College going for my bachelor’s degree. I am always free during the evening and at night. I know how to take care of children because I used to babysit my nieces and nephews many times growing up. I am very fond of keeping a clean and loving household. I obey by the rules the parents give me and make sure the kids are also enjoying themselves when we are hanging out. I can cook homemade meals especially spanish food as I am hispanic. I loved spending time with my nieces and nephews, children bring me so much joy. I hope you will consider me to be your babysitter!

A little bit about me…

Hello,
My name is Khloe, and I'm excited to introduce myself to you as a dedicated and caring Babysitter. I genuinely love kids and am passionate about working with them. My ultimate goal is to become a teacher, which drives my commitment to providing nurturing and educational experiences for the children I care for.

One of the things that makes me a great sitter is my patience and understanding. I have two younger siblings with special needs, so I'm well-versed in offering compassionate and attentive care tailored to individual needs. Whenever my family comes over and needs someone to look after their young ones, I'm always the first to do so happily.

In my free time, I enjoy reading with my dog, combining my love for books and animals. I often incorporate storytime into my babysitting, which kids find delightful and engaging.
I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your family and to provide the excellent care your children deserve!

Best regards,
Khloe :)

Interested in nanny share

A little bit about us…

Seeking a nanny who will actively engage in developmental play with my son while I am in my work-from-home office. My son is special needs recovering from concussion TBI. He is medically complex, but his conditions are under control and would only require our nanny to make us a aware should a medical emergency arise (we can discuss that prior to employment).

Seeking support for the following hours during school year starting August 10, 2023:
Mon-Wed: 3:30p - 6p
Thurs: 3:30p - 7p
Occasional hours outside of those listed above possible (willing to use secondary baby sitter for occasional hours)

Snacks and meals will be prepared, but will require support administering.

No need for support with chores aside from general clean up of play activities performed while on the clock.

His grandparent will likely stay present during times I will not be at the house until trust is firmly established, and strictly for oversight, not for instruction. I will provide any to all instructions regarding my son's care.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Lakeland, FL

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 Lakeland can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Lakeland 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 Florida?
  • Do you have a Florida 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.
