A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Glenda AKA Nanny Gigi and I've been working with kids since I was 13 and love it. I’m a 50 years old wife, mom, stepmom and grandmother to 3 grandchildren. I started out by watching 3 kids as their mother trained to become a triathlete and in exchange her dentist husband put braces on me. Over the last 10 yrs, I've worked primarily with infants and toddlers, but I love kids of all ages. If it's nice out, I like to take the kids outside, for walks or the park but if not, we play indoors, color and learn the basics before PreK. In my free time and weekends, I love being outdoors, swimming, training for a marathon, riding my bike, spending time with my granddaughters, going to dinner with family and friends or having cookouts.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Maddie and I'm 20 years old! I have been a sitter since I was CPR certified at the age of 14. I have watched children of all ages from newborn-13, as well as multiples and children with special needs.
I was homeschooled for many years growing up which allowed me to start college at the age of 16. I was in Nursing School for 3 years but I decided I didn't want to leave my love for children behind. With this mindset I changed my major to become a Certified Child Life Specialist!
Enough about me though!!
I enjoy helping and watching children grow, learn and accomplish new things! I have my own source of transportation so I can help with whatever or wherever you may need! I also like to offer my help in house keeping, meal preparation and pet sitting services.
I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you!

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Abita Springs, LA

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 Abita Springs can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Abita Springs 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 Louisiana?
  • Do you have a Louisiana 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.
