A little bit about me

I am a mature nanny with 10+ years of providing exceptional child care. I am married and we live in Pontypool with 2 Australian Cattle dogs.

I am the oldest of 6 children. Two of my siblings were diagnosed with genetic disorders so I have experience with special needs. My hobbies include hiking, camping, fishing, arts and crafts. I love gardening and being outdoors.

I am reliable and will provide plenty of notice for when I need time off.

I have my own vehicle, am comfortable with pets and a non smoker.

I have experience with children aged 3 months to 11. I have cared for up to 4 children at a time, have cared for twins and have experience with children with special needs.

My duties have included: preparing and giving meals, administering medicine, doing housework and running errands, driving children to and from activities, engaging in creative play, changing, bathing and dressing children.

For more information please feel free to contact me.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Kawartha Lakes, ON

Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.

Kawartha Lakes Nanny Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective nannies, the next step is a nanny interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some nanny interview questions to consider asking:

  • Do you have experience being a nanny?
  • How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
  • What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
  • Are you open to a live in arrangement in Kawartha Lakes? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
  • Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
  • Do you have any references?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Kawartha Lakes?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in ON? Do you own a car?
  • What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
  • What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?

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 prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.

Daycare vs. Hiring a Nanny

Choosing between putting your child in daycare and hiring a nanny can be a tough decision. While nannies are often more expensive, they provide individualized attention and flexibility. Daycares, on the other hand, prioritize socialization. Our Nanny vs Daycare guide can help you determine what's best for your family.
