A little bit about me

I'm Brynna, an upcoming sophomore in the Early Childhood Education program at Southeast Community College. I'm the youngest of four, but I've grown up babysitting neighbors, family friends, etc. My mom had a lot of friends with children anywhere from 6 months old to 11 years old that I would watch on weekends, and I spent my summers nannying for several families. During high school my brother and his wife had their first daughter, and a year later my second niece was here. Last December my oldest sister had her first son, so I love spending my free weekends in Omaha with my nieces and nephew. With my experience from childhood, I've gained more from college through case study's, practicums, child-led activities, observations, and so much more. I can work with ALL children!! My schedule is very flexible right now, I would love to use my knowledge to care and work with anyone!

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Natalie, and I have been babysitting for the past 8 years and have worked as a nanny once previously. Currently, I am a nursing student with extensive experience in healthcare, which has allowed me to develop the skills necessary to deal with any situation that may arise while caring for your child. In addition to my experience, I am also BSL certified and have completed babysitter training courses. I am comfortable working with children of all ages, including those with special needs. I am available full-time Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm, and I am happy to assist with any travel, housekeeping, or errands that need to be run. As a nanny, I am committed to being a positive and supportive role model for your child. I understand the importance of creating a warm and caring environment, and I am always willing to go above and beyond to ensure your child feels safe, loved, and happy.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Cassie! I am originally from Colorado but I live in Nebraska now. I have a 11 month old son and I’m 26 years old.

I started out babysitting when I was 13 and since then I’ve been a live in and live out nanny for multiple families as well as worked in a few preschoolers here in NE. I love being a nanny/ babysitter because kids are my passion and I love to see them grow and bloom!

I have worked with kids on the autistic spectrum and kiddos who need more special help such as feeding and bathing.

I love to play outside, do crafts and go on safe adventures like to the pool or on a hike. I am also more than willing to do light household chores to make your life easier.

If you feel like I’d be a good fit for your family, call or text me at [phone number hidden] or email at [email hidden].

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.
