A little bit about me

Hello! I am an art student at LSU and will be graduating in December 2025! I have lived in Baton Rouge for four years now and love the people I meet most of all! At home in Wisconsin I started taking care of children when I was in middle school working as a babysitter, then camp counselor at a children's camp for ages 3-9. From there I gained connections with families needing full time help and became a full time nanny for two years! I am eager to make those same connections in Baton Rouge and find a family to grow with as a full time nanny. In addition to playtime and enrichment, I am more than willing to help out with education and tutoring, meal prepping, cleaning, chores, as well as transportation, etc. I look forward to caring for some kiddos again!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kellise and I’m 18 years old. I’ve been caring for kids for as long as I can remember—ever since I was old enough to help out with younger siblings and family friends. Babysitting comes naturally to me, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids.

I’m full of energy, always eager to learn something new, and I bring that same enthusiasm into everything I do—including childcare. I’m currently working on getting my driver’s license, and I plan to go to school to become a pediatrician, so you can trust that your child will be in caring and capable hands.

Looking forward to meeting you and your little one!

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.
