A little bit about me

Hello families! I believe that the best learning happens when children feel safe and lead the way. My childcare approach is deeply rooted in play-based, nurturing care, backed by professional and academic experience in Early Childhood Education (ECE). I bring specialized expertise as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) working with neurodiverse children, alongside certifications in CPR, First Aid, and trauma-informed care. I’d love to help your child thrive in a peaceful, supportive environment!

"We had a wonderful experience with our Hannah as our babysitter! She was reliable, caring, and great with our kids. We felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care and came home to happy, well-cared-for kids. She was also great at communicating and went above and beyond to help us when we needed it. We would definitely recommend her and would happily have her babysit for us again!"

"Rachel always treated our kids with respect, compassion, and was proactive in filling their days with educational and fun activities. I never had to suggest things for them to do - she did it all on her own, and came up with very creative ways to spend their time. She learned our family and our routines and anticipated our needs, often doing things without me even asking, even if they were outside of her job description. Without asking, our house was always picked up, dishes were done, laundry was done, etc. It was a breath of fresh air to walk into the house at the end of the work day. She handled conflict between our kids well, set expectations for them, was firm but loving. She comes up with great, creative ideas for fun outings and activities to do at home. She was always on time, I could count on her, she gave me advance notice when she needed time off. And she was so proactive in doing things without needing to ask her. She was always punctual and never called in sick."

"Caytie is the most enthusiastic person I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Caytie loves to take on new challenges and works extremely hard to accomplish her goals. In the short time that I worked with her I was thrilled to be able to offer her two promotions at ALDI. Caytie began her work as a Full-time Associate and within just a few months she had store managers from other stores asking if she was an Assistant Manager. Shortly thereafter I promoted her to Lead Store Associate, and within another 6 months I selected her to be the only employee to assist me in the opening of a new ALDI location in Cedar Springs, MI. This selection included her promotion to Assistant Store Manager. Caytie met and exceeded every expectation I had for all of the positions she held. Any employer that Caytie is applying to work for would be remisce to not select her. She will perform any task assigned to her with dedication, professionalism, and excitement."

How to Hire a Nanny in Michigan

Nanny Lane is an easy-to-use website that helps families find experienced local nannies in Michigan. Simplify your nanny search and find your perfect nanny today. Our services include background checks, nanny contracts, and nanny payroll.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Michigan

Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.

Michigan Nanny Interviews

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

  • Do you have experience being a nanny?
  • How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
  • What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
  • Are you open to a live in arrangement in Michigan? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
  • Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
  • Do you have any references?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Michigan?
  • Do you have a Michigan driver’s license? Do you own a car?
  • What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
  • What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?

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 prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
