A little bit about me

Hi! I am a stay-at-home mom of 4 beautiful kiddos. I am recently divorced and am trying to finish my degree before entering into a full-time career, so I am looking for part-time work to help with our finances and get me through school. (I am about to graduate with my psychology degree and strongly desire to work in a setting where I can help woman and children from domestic abuse and/or drug addiction situations, or something along those lines.) I have plenty of experience with my own 4 kids- 3 boys ages 13, 15 and 18, and a girl, age 10. I also have quite a bit of experience working with all age groups in a preschool/daycare setting on and off for over 8 years. My preferred age group is newborns up to crawling age, as it is easier for me to not have such a strenuous physical regimen as with older children. I have the most experience working with kids under age 1, and I truly enjoy nurturing and caring for new babies. It brings joys and light to my life and keeps my spirit fed!

A little bit about me

The following is a brief introduction of myself:
I am an 18-year-old individual who takes responsibility seriously and demonstrates a caring and creative personality. I find pleasure in listening to RNB and Coco Melon. Additionally, I have two nieces and two nephews between the ages of 9 months and 6 years old, and I am the second youngest out of seven children. Currently, I am pursuing my education and I am in the final year of my graduation program, which I plan to complete by 2024. My favorite color is green, and my favorite animal is a dog, however, I do own an adorable grey kitten named Lily. In case your child loves pets, I am more than happy to take care of them. I consider myself a fun nanny who can also assist with homework and other related responsibilities. Although I do not have a car, I do have reliable transportation. I would love to be your family babysitter or nanny.

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Emma and I'm looking for a part-time nanny position. If you are looking for a nanny or sitter that will be a companion in your child's creative development as well as a loving caretaker, I may be a good fit for your family! I believe in encouraging children to express themselves and helping them explore the world through lots of outdoor play, creating art, and reading.

I am a recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in Fine Arts and have a background in music, writing, and the humanities. I have experience babysitting for infants, toddlers, and grade-schoolers since age 12, as well as summer school for K-2, and am scheduled for a pediatric CPR/First Aid certification course in mid-January.

I love to cook and am versed in cooking healthy, delicious meals for various kinds of diets. I like to keep a clean space and am comfortable with housekeeping and laundry. I also love animals and have a lot of experience caring for both cats and dogs.

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

New Orleans 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.
