A little bit about me

Hi!! My name is Amaya. I'm 20 years old & I have 4 siblings. I've always had the gift of being really good with children and helped to raise my siblings because of it . Because I was so good with kids , babysitting was my first job. I don’t mind helping parents out with their children or just helping to take the load off at home , mostly because I don’t have any children myself . I am a Christian woman, so my patience and love comes from god. I cook , clean and deal with the kiddos . Contact me if you’re looking for a part time nanny. I look forward to meeting you soon!

I am ready to help you with your family's needs & your needs when reasonable things are asked.. I have experience from day care work with Newborn through teaching pre k. I was certified for cpr, and other certification needed to work at the type daycare back when I was 18.. now I'm 39. I helped teach and raise my autistictic and bi polar brothers as well as my 3 kids Till the autistic brother moved in at 13, while my other brother lived with my sister. We came from abusive background and I married into one. So experienced with children, special needs or not coming from abusive relationships. If offered courses or certification for your child's specific special medical needs or otherwise, I will have no problem with taking the requested steps as long as it is paid by you.. I am part time but very flexible hours 24/7 and willing to put in more hours sometimes when planned for. Car isn't equipped for wheel chairs. Thanks and hope to hear from you soon!!

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

Lake Charles 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.
