A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Zaria Nelson, and I am currently a student at Southern University School of Nursing. I have experience caring for children ranging from preschool age through teenagers, and I truly enjoy babysitting because it allows me to build positive, meaningful connections with kids. I am CPR certified and always prioritize providing safe, effective, and attentive care. I am available for a decent portion of the week, though my schedule may vary due to nursing classes and clinicals. I am happy to communicate and plan around my school schedule to ensure reliability. I am energetic, organized, self-dependent, and very caring. As a former college athlete, I am more than willing to help with sports, outdoor activities, or staying active with your children. Working with kids is especially important to me because I hope to specialize in pediatrics in my nursing career, and hands-on experience helps me grow both personally and professionally.

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.
