A little bit about me

Hi, I am available as a mother's helper, or caring for your children part-time.

While I don't have years of babysitting experience, I've lived experience as a mother of two, and understand how difficult it is to open your home to a stranger, and have that stranger care for your children. I will do my utmost best to keep your children safe because that is what I would want for my children in your place.

In addition to childcare, I can also assist with light housekeeping.

*References available upon request, thank you. I am available now till end July, thereafter from end August.

A little bit about me

My educational background is in teaching and I have developed deep knowledge of child development. I am passionate about providing an enriched environment for babies and young children to help them with their development. I have extensive experience working with babies and young children. My first position was working for a busy executive family and minding their 6 month old son, including occasionally accompanying the mom on work trips with the baby to mind him in the car and while she worked. My second position was for a family where the mother was in a wheelchair to provide childcare for their 1.5 year old and 2 week old, as well as light housework and meal prep. My third position I was with the family for 2.5 years, beginning when their son was 5 months old. I was fully responsible for his care and meal prep for the family.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Hamilton, ON

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 Hamilton can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Hamilton 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 Ontario?
  • Do you have a Ontario 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.
