A little bit about me

My name is Taylor Romero, I am 22 and live on my own with my dog, Rosie. I am a very active person, I love being outside. A little about my work experience, I worked at the Lafayette outreach Center. I would help women and children in need. The center would house only women who were in abusive homes and needed help. My job was to answer the phone and manage the front office as well as babysit the children. Sometimes I would should for the children and transport them to appointments. A few years after that, I started an in home daycare and actually took in a child. I no longer have the daycare because I am trying to find another job and with Covid it was getting a little complicated. I love children and helping them learn is my favorite thing to do. It is interesting to me when a child first learn something new, how wowed they are by doing so. I plan on going to college to get my business degree so I can open a public daycare located in my home town.

A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Yanina, and I go by Nina. I am an online part-time college student from out-of-state. I am looking to work as a live-in nanny. While I don't have working experience in childcare, I do enjoy being around children, and I believe I have the right temperament for it. I think children deserve an environment and a support system that make them feel safe, provide basic and special needs, and give them room to grow. I believe I am fit to assist in all those areas.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Lafayette, 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.

Lafayette 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 Lafayette? 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 Lafayette?
  • 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 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.
