A little bit about me

Hello families! I am Latosha Weatherspoon, I believe in Jesus! I am a female who loves working with children of all ages. I have been working as a nanny for under a year. I can assist families in establishing goals for their kids together, I am shy but love to make people laugh! Laughter is good for the soul! You must have a heart, love, and patience to work with children! I used to babysit my family's small kids when I was younger. After my children started school, I volunteered and substituted at a local headstart as a volunteer and paraprofessional. Then I was blessed to work in schools in East Feliciana Parish for 6 years until I became a special needs paraprofessional in 2014! I have worked at East Iberville Elementary and High as an interventionist paraprofessional/BMC/substitute teacher! I am now in Baker School District making a difference in other children's lives! This is my third year! I am a Child Specific Para to a child in a wheelchair.

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

Zachary 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.
