A little bit about me

I started working in childcare 9 years ago. Since then I have accumulated multiple certifications including my CPR license, a babysitting certification through the American Red Cross, and Early Childhood Development certifications.

I've worked with daycares and nannied/babysat for over 50 families with kids ranging from 4 weeks to 15 years old; families that have 1-6 children and even been blessed to work with a few special needs families.

I can't express how much I enjoy my job- I LOVE getting to know every family. I could go on for days telling stories of past experiences, but we all know busy mommas don't have that time.

I am here to help in every way- even if you need extra hands playing with the kids while you are in the next room getting some well-deserved time with Netflix and a snack that's not goldfish or an applesauce pouch; or taking the kids to the park just to get out of your hair so you can get things done around the house- I'm always up for a fun adventure!

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

Shreveport 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.
