A little bit about me…

I’m Alexa, I’m 18 years old and I absolutely love kids. I currently attend Virginia Tech and am pursuing degrees in Biochemistry and Psychology. My junior year of high school I took a class that allowed me to be a preschool teacher for kids ages 3-5. Throughout this class I designed and executed lesson plans in subjects such as Art, Math, Reading, Science, and Introductory Spanish. I also planned and budgeted weekly kid friendly snacks for the children. I passed my Workplace Readiness exam at the end of the course and am certified to work in daycares and preschools. I have a lot of babysitting experience and I am able to provide references from the preschool and families I have babysat for in the past. I have my drivers license and own a car so transportation is no concern and I can also pick up and drop off your children as required. I am willing to do meal prep, run errands, prepare meals/snacks, and do light housecleaning. I am First Aide and CPR certified through the Red Cross.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Blacksburg, VA

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 Blacksburg can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Blacksburg 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 Virginia?
  • Do you have a Virginia 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.
