A little bit about me

My name is Dajuan Kinzey
I have five children. My eldest is 18 yrs old. I'm an active mother in my children's life. I'm seeking work currently. I'm more than 18 yrs experienced babysitting. To me to care for a child isn't a job. It is more about communicating and committing. Children want attention and support. I would enjoy being able to provide that for a parent; Who's schedule is hectic or busy. I understand as a parent , it's important that your child is in safe hands. I'm a woman of faith, and I believe children need love. Although being a nanny is tough sometimes. I belive routine is important. It keeps a flow of things. Making life much more efficient and easier.

A little bit about me

My name is Kristin, I live in the Uptown New Orleans area, and I have been taking care of children for almost 20 years. I started off as a babysitter in high school, slowly building a clientel with the families in my neighborhood. I continued sitting into college, and eventually took a job as a preschool teacher, where I had the priviledge to nurture and teach a class of up to 20 toddlers for almost six years. In 2008, I left teaching to persue my first Nanny gig for a fantastic family’s two-month-old quadruplets. Yes, four babies. Being outnumbered 4-1 was challenging, but I am so grateful that this was my first experience as a Nanny; it helped me to fine tune my multitasking skills, as well as my patience. In the years that followed, I was honored to add several more families to my resume, with children that ranged in age from newborn to pre-teens. I genuinely love what I do and try to give the children in my care the attention and respect any parent would. I love arts and crafts and music, and I do try to expose my clients to both, whenever possible! I am CPR/First Aid certified. I am a non smoker. I have my own transportation and would love to meet you and your family for an interview to get to know everyone. I am happy to help with meal prep, dishes, laundry, baby food, sleep training, and everything else that comes with babies and toddlers and children alike. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, and I do look forward to hearing from you.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in New Orleans, 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.

New Orleans 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 New Orleans? 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 New Orleans?
  • 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

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.
