A little bit about me

Dear Parents,
My name is Ania — a CPR & First Aid certified nanny with a professional nursing background and years of experience caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers. I’m warm, responsible, and connect easily with families from diverse backgrounds. I hold certifications in CPR, First Aid, Newborn Care, Pediatric Assisting and Early Childhood Education. As a nurse specialized in nephrology, I bring professionalism, empathy, and structure to every home.

I’ve cared for a lovely family in Germany with a newborn and toddler, managing daily routines, meals, naps, and playtime. I create playful, educational activities that nurture curiosity, emotional growth, and social skills. I prepare healthy meals, maintain a tidy environment, and assist with light housekeeping and pet care.

I’m fluent in six languages (Polish, Ukrainian, Russian, German, Albanian, and English). Open to full-time or part-time roles. References available upon request.

Looking forward to meeting your family! 😊

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Catherine and I'm a 22-year-old Australian-Canadian. I grew up in Australia so this year I'm exploring my Canadian roots. I arrived in Vancouver in March, where I worked for an outdoor school for 2 months. This involved taking neurodiverse children out on field trips to help them with their outdoor and day-to-day life skills such as how to take transit and interact with the general public.

I have had some babysitting experience in Australia looking after children aged around 4 and 5 on a casual basis.

I love reading, baking, watching movies and doing outdoor activities such as cycling and hiking.

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.
