A little bit about me…

Hello my name is Karina, I am 31 years old. I have always had a passion for working with kids. I have taken care of my nephews and niece their whole lives and have been a nanny to 2 families aside from babysitting jobs here and there. I do not have kids of my own which is probably another reason why I love working with kids!! I’ve worked in a center for kids with Autism for a year and loved it and have family on the spectrum so I have experience with children with special needs. I would love to work with your family and become a very important part of it as I take my job very seriously. Thank you.

A little bit about me…

i'm 20 years old i'm currently a student and planning on graduating a little before summer. the only times I wouldn't be available is the weekends (fri-sun) because that's when I have class. I have the week off (mon-thur)and available anytime through out the day. I used to be a housekeeper so I can do light housekeeping where it needs to be done. I've worked with all kinds of children, kids, and even teenagers. I was the oldest growing up so I watched and raised all my cousins, neighbors kids, and had a few babysitting jobs. I have my license and my own car and I've had no accidents and I know to strap in a carseat. I'm like a mother without kids honestly.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Modesto, CA

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 Modesto can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Modesto 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 California?
  • Do you have a California 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.
