A little bit about me…

My name is Thailand, and I am 24 years old. I have been working with children every since I was in middle school. I have volunteered at my family's daycare up until it's closing. After that, I have always been very active with the children in my community. I founded an educational summer program for the youth in my hometown, Mississippi. I also volunteer for Love Fosters Hope as a cousin for the foster care children. Caring for children is a gift that I am very grateful for. I am also very helpful with light household duties as well.

A little bit about me…

Hi, first let me say thank you for taking the time to view my profile! I am a 24year-old college graduate (Loyola University New Orleans) that recently received my degree in Psychology. With over 5 years of experience in the childcare field I feel that I have gained excellent childcare experience with children of all ages. I love to work with younger children more often so that I can help foster their skills they will use in other areas in their lives. At the moment, I am fostering my own skills by learning Spanish and sign language again. I would love to help your little ones learn as well. I can do simple housework (laundry, cleaning, or some simple cooking) and run errands if needed. I am First-Aid and CPR Certified for children under 1 years old and adults. I can work with you to determine fun activities and crafts to help entertain your little ones. I am available to work mostly in the day but can work night hours, if they are needed. I hope to hear from you soon.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Houston, TX

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 Houston can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Houston 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 Texas?
  • Do you have a Texas 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.
