A little bit about me…

Hello! My is Tiffany Paden
I’m a junior psych major at UNCC. I’m working towards being an play therapist.
I have lots of experience in child development, I’ve loved psychology and have read textbooks since I was a child. I’ve always been a “mom” at heart so the over 10 years of paid experience taking care of children came naturally to me.

Here’s what you won’t find on my resume.
You won’t see the hours of pretend/real adventures, the inside jokes. You won’t see the excitement when a child can finally understand their homework. You won’t find the research to help that specific child. Nor the work spent to help the child cultivate kindness.

I genuinely love my kids I watch. I I’m flexible and believe all children are different therefore need different approach’s depending on the child. I try to adapt to the family and on need.
I research heavily for any child I am watching to better there development.
I am very excitable; warm and bubbly.

A little bit about me…

Hi! My name is Jess!
I'm a theatre education major at Emerson College so I LOVE helping kids discover their confidence and creativity through play. I moved here from Colorado and grew up hiking, swimming, etc. Being outside is truly a passion of mine and I believe it's an essential part of a positive caregiving experience as well!I have quite a few years of childcare experience, between being a theatre teacher for the last four years and three years of long term babysitting gigs so I feel very comfortable working with families of all shapes and sizes. I think nannying is a wonderful opportunity to create positive experiences and help children grow into the best version of themselves. I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos!

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Boston, MA

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.

Boston 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 Boston? 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 Boston?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in MA? 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.
