A little bit about me…

Hello, my name is Isabela I’m a 17 year old high school senior searching for a flexible and communicative environment to put my babysitting skills.
I’m a reliable, patient, and caring person, and always put a child’s needs before my own. Having younger siblings of my own helps me be creative to create fun things to do! I can cook and make fun shape snacks for the little ones, don’t worry I do have experience in the kitchen.
I’m attending my second year at CLC Tech campus taking a culinary course in order to safely prepare tasty foods.

I would like to be clear that I do have autism and may appear as most would say “strange” or “unusual” at first, I tend to get quite nervous in new settings but this does not effect my babysitting abilities.

Thank you for your consideration!

I'm a certified Teacher's Aide with extensive care for children of ages 0-3 years old. I'm patient, nurturing, and super energetic! I simply enjoy the company of children and to be able to grow at every stage of their lives, fills my heart. I have 3 years of experience as a head teacher at an in-home daycare as well as babysitting multiple children on date nights, but I'm passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny field so that I can continue to do what I love.

I am an energetic and compassionate 43 year old nanny with 10+ years experience. Due to the Covid 19 crisis, one of the parents I work for is being furloughed and they will not be able to keep me on. I’ve been with my current family since their first born was 3 months old. He turns two next month and they have added a little girl to their family. She will be 1 in June. I’ve established remarkable bonds with both children and will be sad to be moving on but eager to share my talents with a new family. I can provide letters of recommendation and professional references Upon request. My strengths include establishing routine, cultivating and encouraging creativity, showing patience and compassion and dependability. Im a big advocate of reading with children of all ages And volunteer with a nonprofit reading to and play with children living in shelters. Id love to meet your family and see if I might be a good fit in your home. Thank You in advance for your consideration.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Waukegan, IL

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 Waukegan can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Waukegan 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 Illinois?
  • Do you have a Illinois 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.
