A little bit about me

I am a hard-working, very ambitious, always on time if i’m going  to be late i will always communicate and i love to show my authentic self to others especially working with children. i have nieces and nephews and i have always watched them(kind of the baby sister of the family).  I got to Xavier University Of Louisiana for school. I am a psych major. I inspire to be a child adolescent therapist for children. As I study psychology it shows me the importance of engaging with children through social emotional learning.  Learning with them and seeing them grow in many different ways is a beautiful experience.

A little bit about me

Hi, there! My name is Arielle. I am a 35-year-old writer/artist/performer who lives go bring creativity, playfulness and imagination to a world that desperately needs it. I find that this superpower is best unlocked by being with the kiddos (especially when we are art making or hanging out in the natural world). I’ve worked as a teacher’s assistant for a nature school & while it’s been a long while since I’ve done any “official” nannying, I am the first to hang with my friends’ kids, when most supportive. In these experiences, I balance the play/adventure with deep listening and presence, rounded out by a calm discipline, when needed. I look forward to meeting your lil fam. <3

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.
