A little bit about me

Hiii! My name is Mariah, and I have been babysitting for as long as I can remember. As the eldest of six children, I have extensive experience in child and infant care. Currently, I am sixteen years old, hold a driver's license, and have my own car. I also work part-time and am a member of the class of 2026.

While I've been babysitting informally since childhood, I began receiving payment for my services in my community, including caring for my principal's son, about four years ago. I am creative in engaging children, encouraging learning, and ensuring their safety. My responsibilities also include cooking, cleaning, and assisting with homework.

I understand that children can sometimes be challenging, but my experience has equipped me with essential skills such as patience, flexibility, effective communication, problem-solving, emotional intelligence, and conflict resolution. If you have any questions or require further information, please feel free to reach out!

A little bit about me

I am a recent graduate from Loyola University New Orleans, and am looking for families to babysit for in the city. I love taking kids to the park, spending time with them playing board games, reading, and anything else kids like to do. When I’m not babysitting I love to run, go to yoga and Pilates classes, and spend time with my friends. I also would love to teach kids how to paint or do any other arts and craft activities.

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 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.
