A little bit about me

m someone who’s still growing, but I’m very aware of who I am and where I’m going. I don’t just move through life blindly—I think deeply, I observe, and I try to understand things on a real level. My faith in God is what keeps me grounded, especially when things around me feel confusing or heavy.

I’ve been through situations that forced me to mature early, so I value peace, independence, and truth. I’m not the type to follow the crowd—I like to move with purpose and build a life that actually aligns with me. I care about becoming stable, successful, and free, not just financially, but mentally and spiritually too.

I’m focused on my future, working toward a career where I can grow, help others, and create something solid for myself. At the same time, I’m learning how to balance life—making space for mysel

A little bit about me

I have hands-on experience working in a daycare setting, where I cared for children in a structured, fast-paced environment. My role involved supervising multiple children, assisting with daily routines, engaging kids in age-appropriate activities, and maintaining a safe, clean, and nurturing space.
Working at a daycare helped me develop strong patience, attentiveness, and communication skills. I understand the importance of safety, consistency, and positive guidance, and I’m comfortable supporting children with playtime, meals, rest periods, and transitions throughout the day.
I am dependable, caring, and genuinely enjoy working with children. I take pride in creating a calm and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving their children in my care.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Baton Rouge, LA

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.

Baton Rouge 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 Baton Rouge? 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 Baton Rouge?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in LA? 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
