A little bit about me

I am a former teacher with more than 15 years of teaching experience. I have two teaching degrees. One in early childhood education (pre-k through 3rd grade) and elementary education (1st-5th). Most of my experience comes from teaching kindergarten through second grade. I am semi fluent in Spanish and Portuguese.
As a nanny, I am not only watching that your child is safe and secure, but I am using my past love of teaching to meet your child where they are academically. In short, I will be, not only a nanny, but a tutor as well.
I am a quick learner with many skills including light house detail and cooking. I am also great with animals as I have two of my own. Some of my other skills include exceptional organizational skills, homeschooling, pet sitting, upkeep of house plants, laundry, and wonderful people skills. People describe me as very people friendly, approachable, respectful, genuine, transparent, and punctual.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Emma. I am currently a nursing student, and don’t start clinicals for another year so my schedule is open. I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages—from newborns on up. I’ve worked in a variety of roles, including occasional babysitting, overnight care, and as a full-time vacation nanny, so I’m comfortable adapting to different family dynamics and needs.

I’m reliable, nurturing, and highly organized. Whether it’s preparing healthy meals, keeping things tidy, helping with homework, or just making sure the kids have fun and feel safe—I’ve got it covered. I also have my own transportation, which makes pick-ups, drop-offs, and errands a breeze.

Creating a warm, engaging environment where children can thrive is something I truly value. I’m here to make your life easier and give your little ones the care and attention they deserve!

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Lafayette, LA

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.

Lafayette 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 Lafayette? 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 Lafayette?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in LA? 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.

Daycare vs. Hiring a Nanny

Choosing between putting your child in daycare and hiring a nanny can be a tough decision. While nannies are often more expensive, they provide individualized attention and flexibility. Daycares, on the other hand, prioritize socialization. Our Nanny vs Daycare guide can help you determine what's best for your family.
