A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Henry, I have been working in professional childcare for about 4 years now, though my love and passion for working with kids spans back much further. At 12 I began babysitting my younger cousins, and as I grew older more relatives and family friends entrusted me to watch their children. At 17 I biked to a nearby daycare in my hometown where I applied for and received my first childcare job. I was very successful in my various positions, until I left my hometown to move here to Lincoln, NE. I arrived here in 2021 and immediately received a position at another childcare center. I was once again very successful in my various positions throughout my year and five months with my second center. This year I decided to leave the childcare center profession for the time being to focus on my education. I have had the privilege of extensive training thanks to my time with daycare centers and would like to extend that knowledge and gain a degree in early childhood education.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Mikayla, I'm 25 years old and am moving to Edmond in December! Before moving, I was a nanny for 11 kids in Nebraska! I home-schooled them, cleaned the house, prepared all the meals, and essentially managed the home! There were 3 sets of twins, one being a set of boy-girl twins who were born while I was caring for them and I got to raise for the first 18 months of their life! I absolutely love kids of all ages and have a lot of first hand experience. I've encountered pretty much anything you can imagine! I have taken an online childhood choking / CPR + first aid course, but it did not come with the official red cross certification.

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.
