A little bit about me

I am an "out of town" Mother of 4, living in the area for close to 7-months. Just recently I babysat an infant until she was around 6months old. I have experience with children and babies being that I have had 4 children of my own. I really, really enjoy taking care of lil babies, infants, toddlers and preschoolers but am adjustable to any child of any age.

A little bit about me

Hi, they call me momma Lisa or nanny. I love kids especially teaching them different things which I love cuz it's a challenge which I've always enjoyed. I love dogs. If you need a nanny to travel with,I don't have a Problem traveling when needed. I can help the potty training days. I was in the trucking industry 35 years of which I have retired. My interest now is children. I was hoping to find a family that could pick me up and bring me home for a few weeks. I need to put a starter on my car but need to work and make money to do so. I hope this doesn't change your mind about me watching your children. I just need a couple checks and I can fix it. I can be available then to bring kids to school and pick them up. I'm out going with a great personality. Make friends with people easily. I look forward to meeting you and your children if given the chance. Have a great day. You may call me at [phone number hidden] or text me, I even take emails at [email hidden]
Thanks
Lisa

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

Baton Rouge 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.
