A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Tessa. I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter and nanny. I am the oldest of four siblings and also a mom of 2. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach.
Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I'm available on weekdays until and I have the flexibility to work four weekend days each month. I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.

A little bit about me

I worked on a preschool for over two years. I love seeing the little ones smile, feel confident and save, and learn as much as they can with outdoor playing, arts, reading, and some fun age appropriate exercises that are helpful for them. I’ve taken care of babies also from ages of 1 month up to 5 years. And I just love watching them grow strong and healthy.

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

Metairie 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.
