A little bit about me

I was working at Harrah's Casino, then became pregnant so I resigned to become a stay-at-home mom with my little girl who is turning 3. Due to inflation and the recent pandemic living expenses are at and all time high these days. I am looking for a nanny/babysitting job that I can bring my daughter with me too, so I don't have to put her in daycare. I am married and my husband is award winning Executive chef in downtown New Orleans. Meal prep and menu planning are also available for the children and family. We have a chocolate lab mix, so dogs are no problem. If you aren't comfortable with me bringing my little girl to your house, I have no problem watching your kids at my house. I look forward to serving your family and providing the same care I give my family.
Thank you for your consideration,
Debra Green

A little bit about me

I am 44 year old woman from South Louisiana, where I have had 9+ years of paid experience with multiple families as a nanny. As well as decades of experience unpaid. Coming from a large family myself, there was always a need to help out. My passion has always been kids and family, but not being blessed myself with children I direct that into helping others. I had moved to Alabama for a couple of years and I am moving back to be closer to my family. So I am leave my current nanny position due to the move. Please allow me to help care for your family and show you what I do best.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Covington, LA

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 Covington can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Covington 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 Louisiana?
  • Do you have a Louisiana 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.
