A little bit about me

I am a 33-year-old compassionate, responsible, and dependable caregiver with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (Honours) and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, along with current Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C certification. As a Registered Nurse (Non-Practising) and member of the Canadian Armed Forces Reserves, I bring strong leadership, organization, and a high level of safety awareness.
I have served in a dedicated nanny role for my niece and nephew from ages 1 to 8, supporting daily routines, meal preparation, hygiene, homework, structured play, and extracurricular activities. My clinical and emergency response background allows me to remain calm under pressure and prioritize child safety.
I am fluent in English and Spanish, and have beginner-level French (CEFR A1), allowing me to understand and speak basic conversational French. I strive to create a nurturing, structured, and engaging environment where children feel secure and supported.

A little bit about me

Hey! I'm a 17-year-old in my final year of high school. I Started babysitting around the age of 11, mostly my neighbourhood kids aged 3-9. I Resumed last year but instead I started volunteering at a daycare with ages kids up to 11 months to 12 years old. I Recently spent 6 months with a family of 4 with 1 girl and 1 boy but they moved cities so I decided to completely quit babysitting and started focusing on school and completely gave on the whole babysitting thing. But recently in my last year of school before university I had the interests to start babysitting again it truly makes me happy that I could work with kids and ensure they are taken care of. To start off id make sure to do variety of activities, from engaging games and creative projects indoors to outdoor play and exploration, ensuring a well-rounded and enjoyable experience for the children. Most importantly I’d ensure the children’s safety at all times and be prepared and responsible for anything. Thanks for reading:)

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Toronto, 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 Toronto can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Toronto 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.
