A little bit about me

Hi!! My name is Ann Turner. I’m originally from MS but I've recently moved to NOLA from Denver after living there for about 3. 5 years. I have worked as a pediatric speech language pathologist for the last 4 years but I am currently taking a break from my career!

I'd describe my personality as personable, kind, and patient.

I like working with kids because they are so funny and we as adults can learn so much from them!

I started working with kids when I was 12 years old by babysitting for various family friends and families in my hometown.

In my spare time, I like to read books, listen to music, hangout with my dog Lu, hangout with friends, go on walks, etc.

My skills include experience with all ages, being able to care for multiple children, and I am a pediatric speech language pathologist (currently taking a break), so I also have experience with many different expressive and receptive delays, disorders, etc.

A little bit about me

Since I was a child, I have always taken care of the children in my family. My preteen and teenage years were full of babysitting my brothers and cousins and I loved every minute of it. Having my own children was not in the cards for me, but as an adult, I was a live in nanny for a short time, I used to help my parents in their at home daycare and I recently moved back to New Orleans when my cousin had her baby so I could be close and help out. I genuinely love caring for children and spend a lot of my free time with my cousins’ children ages 1 to 16.

A little bit about me

My name is Bailey and I’m 23 years old. I recently graduated from Louisiana State University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I grew up with 2 older brothers and extremely loving parents. I’ve had dogs my whole life and consider them family members as well. I think what sets me apart is my ability to easily adapt and bond. I adore kids and hope to have a family of my own one day. I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember, but in the recent years I’ve taken more of a nanny role. I’m currently a nanny for 4 children in my hometown. I’d also like to add how huge of an opportunity this would be for me. It has always been a dream of mine to move to Aspen. I’d be sure to utilize everything it has to offer, especially the outdoors, and be more than happy to bring your children along. Thank you so much for considering my application. Also please let me know if you’d like references, I’d be more than happy to send them over.

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.
