A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Montanna and I love to work with children of all ages! Im currently 22, I’m super outgoing and have a creative, fun mindset! I have a baby boy who is about to turn a year old in May 2022 who is my absolute heart! Prior to having him I was working at an Early Education Center where I had my own classroom and curriculum for the ages 1-2. I love teaching children new things and creating memories for them. I am very patient, loving and caring! I hope you will consider me and if you have any further questions about ANYTHING don’t hesitate to ask!

A little bit about me

Hi, My name is Angel. I’m currently a student at Southeastern Louisiana University. I am offering child care, senior care and household services.

I love babysitting because I love being around children. I have been babysitting since I was in high school and some of my responsibilities include ensuring the protection and security of the child/children, arts and crafts, tutoring, meal prep. I also teach chess and basic coding for free, if both the parent and child are interested.

I also do light housekeeping. I can cook, clean and run errands.

I am allergic to pets like cats and dogs but love them anyway.

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

Hammond 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.
