A little bit about us

I have two children, Madeline (8) and Alexander (2 almost 3). Madeline is more on the shy side and likes to keep to herself. Alexander loves to keep busy, he loves riding his bike and playing trains.

A little bit about us

i have a 2 yr old and a 7 month old. I’m starting a job in the middle of the year (around April) that has a schedule working 7 days on and 7 days off. Until then, i have a regular monday-friday job.

i move to the houma area in February and need someone to watch and play with my babies. i DONT need someone that’ll be on their phone most of the day. I’ll have food ready for both boys, so it’ll be minimal cooking. I’ll try to have the house clean(ish) for you, so i just ask that you maintain the cleanliness, but i understand that 2 young kids are hard 😅.

I need someone that’s energetic makes my kids feel comfortable!

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Houma, LA

Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.

The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the 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 make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.

There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Houma. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

How to Interview for a Nanny Job in Houma, LA

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here is a list of some nanny interview questions to prepare for:

  • What do you think children like best about you?
  • What kind of activities will you do with children this age?
  • How do you handle problems that arise behaviorally and emotionally with kids this age?

Beyond answering questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
