A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Zoya. I've been caring for children since 2019 through my work in the children’s ministry at my church.
Over the past 6 years, I’ve gained hands-on experience watching and engaging kids of all ages from toddlers to preteens in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. Whether it's playtime, storytime, crafts, or just listening, I genuinely love helping children learn and watch them grow.

I have substituted for the School Board from Pre-K to 8th grade. At one point I worked with non verbal autistic children, in which I was able to use some of the ASL I knew and enjoyed

I’m patient, dependable, and easy to communicate with. I’m happy to provide references upon request. I also value creating a positive atmosphere and maintaining routines that make both kids and parents feel comfortable and confident. I am fluent in Farsi/Persian.

I truly enjoys working with kids, I’d look forward to connecting with your family!

A little bit about me

I am founder of Agape Children's Ministry Inc We take care of children so their mom's can go to work or school, get out of poverty. While I am a Tax accountant and payroll supervisor, I now prefer to stay at home with the little ones. I am available to work with older children who go to school and are very well mannered. I adopted 6 kids ages 2-10 and fostered 3 kids where one baby wasn't 24 hours old and the other 2 were 2 and 4 they were my sisters children. I was an EMT at a young age but haven't been certified in decades
I can still save a child or parents life but I don't have a current license. I have been taking care of children since I was 10 years old and have a new grandchild that I will help deliver and care for in September. This will make my 3rd biological sons child. I am here to help until I move to Slidell in August. Looking forward to helping out. I can cook anything with a recipe but am trained in non spicy down home cooking. I can also do light housekeeping.

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

Shreveport 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.
