A little bit about me…

I worked as a Camp Counselor for over 2 years. This involved watching over and keeping the kids entertained, organizing activities for them to partake in, and working with the kids to create a dance for the end of the year talent show. I was in charge of about 13 kids who were between the ages of two and three for the first year that I was a counselor. When I was a CIT, I assisted the counselors with kids between the ages of two and seven. I have also tutored elementary school children in English, reading, and writing.

A little bit about me…

I started babysitting when i was 11 years old. I have been a part time nanny and full time summer nanny for 4 families (children aged 2 months-12 yrs.). I love to be outside and do all sorts of crafts. I get to know every child i work with and truthfully have never had any major issues with any child in my care. I do have a daughter i would like to bring. Her name is Khloe and shes 2 years ikd. She is a very easy going little girl and i have no problem taking care of the children I'm sitting for along with her. I have my bachelors degree in psychology and I am currently looking into going to grad school in the spring for a collaborative degree in elementary education and special ed. In the future, I would ideally like to be a kindergarten-2nd grade teacher or own my own daycare.

A little bit about me…

I have over 12 years experience as a special education teacher in the public schools from K - 8. Not only was I a teacher, facilitator, tutor and nurse, but I also helped the children and their families with situation that required me to be discrete and sympathetic to their needs. I miss the interactions and feelings of contribution. My 6th year degree in Educational Psychology and business background has helped me fulfill many opportunities with a very high success rate. I am persistent and usually find a way of accomplishing any task.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Guilford, CT

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 Guilford can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Guilford 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 Connecticut?
  • Do you have a Connecticut 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.
