A little bit about me

I am Aschlyn Richardson!! I am 26. I have been babysitting since the age of 10. After High School I attended UNL for 2 years. I was majoring in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education. I worked at a Child Care Center for 2 years and then started on my nanny journey. I was a nanny for the same family for 5 years. This journey came to an end in August of 2025 as their youngest girls both started Kindergarten this year. Over the 5 years of caring for their children, I helped with meals, school activities, appointments, housekeeping, laundry, potty training, learning time, etc! I taught the youngest girls (twins) pre school/kindergarten material. I recently applied to be a substitute teacher and substitute para educator.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Camryn, I'd love to be considered for the right position with your family! I currently work in a nursing home but I previously worked in an accredited childhood learning center. In the 3 1/2 years I worked there I was a teacher in classrooms with ages ranging from 6 weeks to 12 years. I've nannied and babysat for a few different families over the years, I have lots of different childcare experience! I also have a 2-month-old daughter that's the light of my life and I have gotten to learn so much more about children with her than I ever could have hoped than from solely childcare. I also love animals, so pet-friendly families are great! In my free time I usually stick at home with my fiance and our pets and I also work with a local cat rescue to help feral cats in my neighborhood. Most importantly, I love kids and do everything I can to help them learn and grow and I would love to learn more about your family to do the same for you! Thank you.

A little bit about me

I am in my mid-twenties and was born and raised in Nebraska with lots of experience caring for children. I grew up with 2 brothers and began babysitting for friends at 14 years old. Over the years I have provided childcare for families with 1-3 children between the ages of 0-7 years old. I was homeschooled until high school and I love helping children learn; either by teaching them or answering any questions they might have on homework. I enjoy playing board and card games, spending time in nature, going bike riding, and spending time with my church, family, and friends.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Lincoln, NE

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 Lincoln can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Lincoln 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 Nebraska?
  • Do you have a Nebraska 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.
