A little bit about me

I am very experienced with talking to people and am great with kids! I am a psychology major at LSU and will be living in Baton Rouge for the summer. My availability will open up more in the summer as I am about to finish the school year off. I worked at a country club which I dealt with summer camp children. I have worked at loaded tea shops, had serving jobs, and worked at the country club.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Olivia! I am currently a student at LSU majoring in Digital Advertising, but when I’m not hitting the books, you can usually find me reading or spending time outdoor!

Being an oldest child, I’ve always had a natural connection with children and truly enjoy the energy and creativity they bring to the world.

What sets me apart as a sitter is my background in safety. I am a Nationally Certified EMT, meaning I bring a high level of calm and medical preparedness to the home. Whether it’s managing allergies or just knowing exactly what to do in an emergency, your child’s safety is my absolute priority!

My goal isn't just to "watch" your kids, it’s to engage with them! Whether we’re working on a craft project, playing outside, or tackling homework, I aim to be a positive, fun presence in their lives.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Nevaeh, and I am a 19 year old pre-nursing college sophomore student at Louisiana State University. I like the outdoors and going on walks, hanging out with family and friends, playing with my dog, and chilling by myself. While I do not have formal paid babysitting experience, I am the oldest of eight, with my closest sibling in age being 6 years younger than me. I have a lot of experience taking care and watching of my younger siblings over the years. I am patient, easy to get along with, and very responsible.

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

Baton Rouge 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.
