A little bit about me…

hi there! My name is Madie and I am a labor nurse at Swedish in Rockford. I work 3rd shift, working 3 or 4 12s. I love my job but i’m just not ready to give up nannying. I would love to do some part time babysitting, since I work full time nights, it is hard to commit to a full time position as a nanny. I have references available! Can’t wait to meet you and your family!

A little bit about me…

Hello! My name is Rebecca, and I am a 21-year-old nanny from Illinois. I started in childcare the summer I turned 17 working as a lifeguard and swim instructor. The following summer I got a lead guard position at a country club which helped me expand my knowledge in what it takes to care for children. After I graduated in 2020 I took a short break from childcare, and worked at a warehouse for a short time, but was always drawn back to what I love most. Working towards growing in experience I then took on a few temporary babysitting jobs until I found a family in winter of 2021. I was with that family of five for nearly 2 years then sadly had to leave for my move down. I love to be outdoors, cook, bake, sing, and try to bring out the best in all the little ones I take care of. I would love to be a part of your family and help out, however that may look. I look forward to hearing from you!

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Sycamore, IL

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.

Sycamore 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 Sycamore? 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 Sycamore?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in IL? 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.
