Find a nanny in west virginia
Nanny Lane is an easy and safe place for finding nannies
I started as a babysitter, spent several months as a pre-k teacher’s assistant, worked 2-3 years in daycare with infants through 4 years-old, nannied for about 2 years and continue to babysit occasionally. In all, I’ve worked with as young as 3 months up to 13 years-old.
I am comfortable with pets, love to go on walks and interact with the kids outdoors. I also love playing games, doing craft and I am always looking for teachable moments with the kids along with discipline and having fun.
I have reliable transportation and will be renewing my CPR certification soon. I am looking to find a part-time nanny position (up to 30 hours maximum) within the next few months.
Thank you for your time and feel free to reach out with any questions!

Ashley is amazing. My son practically grew up with her and absolutely adores her. She took him out on outings, read to him, played games and all sorts of fun things. And she brought her wonderful dog, which was so nice. The dog was so easygoing and got along great with our dog. - Mia Martin
She was so good with our son. Very communicative and I could tell she really paid attention to our son and his needs. We also appreciated that she would clean up after they played or ate - and I noticed she’d do more cleanup than just what they used. It was a very nice touch. - Heidi

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in West Virginia
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.
West Virginia 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 West Virginia? 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 West Virginia?
- Do you have a West Virginia driver’s license? 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.
