A little bit about me

Hi there!
My name is Sasha Willis and I'm a warm, reliable, and energetic individual with a genuine love for working with children. With several years of hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages, I bring patience, creativity, and a strong sense of responsibility to every family I work with. Whether it's helping with homework, planning fun activities, or just being a caring presence, I aim to make every day a positive and nurturing experience for the children in my care.

I believe in open communication, creating safe and joyful environments, and supporting each child’s unique personality and needs. My goal is always to be someone both kids and parents can trust and count on!

Looking forward to meeting your wonderful family! 😊

A little bit about me

My name is Makenzie! I am 21 years old and have been caring for children of all ages since I was just a preteen. I officially started working in a childcare center when I was 19 years old and loved my job!

To me, caring for a child means more than just watching them…it is to keep them safe, help them learn, grow, develop, and stay positive. Children are living for the first time and trying to learn the way of life. There’s always going to be ups and downs, it’s my job to help them overcome those obstacles and enjoy the great moments as well!

I am able to help out parents in any way I can including some light housework, running errands, small meal preps, e.t.c. I’d love to help your schedule and every day life!

Please reach out to talk more!!

I am a dedicated Pediatric Certified Nursing Assistant

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Newark, DE

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 Newark can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Newark 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 Delaware?
  • Do you have a Delaware 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.
