A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Patrice Sellers and I'm from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I have a 3 and 1 year old son. I'm a youth pastor at my church and in the past I've supervised youth participants. I have no experience being a nanny. All of my experience comes from being a mother and working with youth groups, but I'm eager to learn through this new experience.

A little bit about me

Hello, I'm Alivia! I am currently a middle school theatre teacher, but would like to dive back into nannying and working closely with one family. My passions lie in the arts, nature, writing/film, social justice and human connection! I am a painter, my favorite medium being acrylic on canvas. I have a tight knit family who has always taken in people and animals, so to me generosity rules the land.

A little bit about me

As someone who grew up with nannies/ babysitters, I know how crucial a patient, playful, and consistent
nanny/babysitter is to kids' childhood. I look back at my memories with nannies who were present, caring,
and creative so fondly and find it easy to bring these same qualities to my own experience as a nanny. This means I use our time to be interactive, whether it's coming up with games, reading, or going on outings. I
think it's important to have time away from screens and make everyday tasks fun when doable. I've babysat
children on the shyer side or outright balls of energy, so I feel equipped from my experience to navigate
how to work with a range of personalities. Additionally, I can help provide overarching support with various
household responsibilities, including cooking, cleaning, errand-and running. Overall I'd describe my
attitude toward children as encouraging, light-hearted, and caring.

Nearby cities to find a special needs nanny

What are the responsibilities of a nanny?

Nanny responsibilities range from childcare tasks to assisting with household duties. The exact job description depends on the specific needs of the family. For a special needs nanny, duties might also include providing tailored care and implementing therapeutic activities. Activities can be tailored to the child's interests and abilities. For instance, exploring sensory-friendly exhibits at the Children's Museum of the Arts for a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Check out our guide for a deeper dive into nanny responsibilities.

How should I conduct a nanny interview?

When you find a nanny in New York, the interview process is crucial. Prepare in advance by creating a list of nanny interview questions tailored to your family's needs. These may touch on their experience with special needs children, their training, and their ability to handle potential emergency situations. Remember, it's essential to have a conversation, not just a Q&A session. Here's how to prepare for a nanny interview.

What is a nanny contract and why do I need one?

A nanny contract is an agreement between you and your nanny that outlines key details such as hours, salary, and job duties. It helps set clear expectations and can help prevent misunderstandings down the road. It's also a great place to lay out specifics about caring for children with special needs. For a closer look at the details, see our guide on nanny contracts.

What should I know about nanny payroll and taxes?

Nannies are considered household employees, which means you're responsible for withholding taxes from their paycheck and paying employer taxes. This process can be complex, but a nanny payroll service can help simplify it.

How do I ensure a safe and secure hire with background checks?

Background checks are a vital step in the hiring process. They can provide peace of mind about your potential nanny's criminal history, driving records, and other vital information. It's always wise to inform candidates in advance that you will be conducting a background check. You can learn more about our approach to background checks here.

How do I decide between a part-time, full-time, or summer nanny?

Your decision will depend on your family's needs and schedule. A full-time nanny often works 40 hours a week, while a part-time nanny might work less than that. A summer nanny is typically hired for a set period during the summer break. You might find that one type of arrangement better fits your family's requirements. To help you navigate these choices, we've prepared a guide detailing the costs associated with each type of nanny in New York.
