A little bit about me

Hiyaa! My name is Morgan and I am currently a senior at Mcneese State University, pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I plan on becoming an ABA Therapist. With over 5 years of experience in childcare, I have spent the past 4 years nurturing and guiding a wonderful family with two energetic boys. Hailing from a big family myself, I understand the importance of creating a loving and supportive environment for children. My experience includes working at Camp Calvary and Glad Tidings Preschool, where I cared for infants through 13-year-olds. My passion for working with kids drives me to provide the best care possible, ensuring they feel loved, supported, and encouraged to grow. I strive to be ab extended family member for all my kiddos. I think this would just be a perfect fit for me. If you are still searching, I am interested. Thanks!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Katherine.
I have always loved children and helping others. Right now I’m seeking part-time nannying work while the school I work at is out for the summer, and hopefully can keep doing if/when I go to college in the fall. I have experience with many different ages and have worked for a number of parents who always expressed satisfaction with my work and love for their kids.
As of right now my working hours are pretty flexible but that will change when the school year starts.

A little bit about me

Hi. My name is Abigail Malbrough. I am from Houma, LA. I go to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. I am a Sophomore majoring in Criminal Justice. I have worked at a Summer Camp each summer back in my hometown. Sadly I was only able to do it in 2019 because of Covid19 this past summer. In 2019, I was in charge of 14 four-year-olds, so I have a great amount of experience with that age group. I still have experience from that year of summer camp with ages up to 13 years old. I have always loved kids and have been great with them.

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.
