A little bit about me

My name is Jaley Schubarth and I currently go to college in York Nebraska and play volleyball at York University! I am currently 19 years old, but I am turning 20 in five days! This summer I am going to live with my friend in Lincoln, instead of going back to my home town in Colorado. I need a good and steady summer job that plays well and that I enjoy, and I absolutely love kids! All last summer I was a substitute teacher for elementary and middle school, and I loved it! I would love to work with kids during my summer!!! I love outdoor activities, sports, arts and crafts, baking, and so much more! Housekeeping would be a piece of cake for me being as I have two younger brothers back at home and cleaned hotel rooms for a summer job all throughout high school. I also have had a plethora of babysitting jobs all throughout high school and into college, so I am very familiar with kids! All in all, I couldn’t think of a better summer job, and I am so excited!

A little bit about me

absolutely love being around children—their energy, curiosity, and honesty bring me so much joy. I also have a deep passion for reading and learning; there's something incredibly fulfilling about discovering new things and expanding my perspective. Whether it's diving into a good book or exploring a new topic, I'm always eager to grow. I even enjoy going on little side adventures, like running errands or taking spontaneous detours during the day. To me, even the smallest moments can turn into meaningful experiences when approached with curiosity and a sense of fun.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Lincoln, NE

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 Lincoln can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Lincoln 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 Nebraska?
  • Do you have a Nebraska 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.
