A little bit about me

Hi I’m Ashley! I’m a 19 year old college student from Smyrna, DE. I come from a big family so I’m used to looking after my younger cousins and all their shenanigans. In addition, I worked as a babysitter all throughout high school where I looked after kids as young as 5 months old up to 14. Whether your child needs homework help, someone to play hide and seek with, or just someone to make sure they’re not alone, I can do it all. I’m responsible, friendly and am ready to devote my time and energy to a great kid. I can’t wait to hear from you! Best.

A little bit about me

I am a 21 year old mother of soon to be 2 children as I am currently pregnant and a stay at home mom of a 1 year old girl. I am looking for a job that I can do from home until I am ready to have my 2nd child, and babysitting would be a good position for me. It well allow my child to be accustomed to other kids as we just moved to Delaware and won’t be around family or friends. My daughter is a sweet, lovable, and funny girl , and she brightens up at the sight of other kids. I am very reliable , responsible and have a clear schedule to tend to your nanny needs. I can ensure you that your child will be safe and be in a stable environment while in my care . I have experience babysitting my 3 nieces and nephews while they were growing up, and also was paid to babysit my sisters friends kids as well. Thank you for your consideration, and I would be delighted to be at your service.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Smyrna, DE

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 Smyrna can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Smyrna 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 Delaware?
  • Do you have a Delaware 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.
