A little bit about me

I am a 20-year-old college student currently attending Loyola University New Orleans, where I am majoring in criminology but considering switching to psychology with a minor in sports medicine. I work a 9–5 job at a daycare, which reflects my responsibility and care for others. In my free time, I enjoy listening to Disney music and watching Disney movies, showing my fun and nostalgic side. I prefer eating homemade meals over dining out, and I stay active by working out and spending time with my siblings playing sports like basketball, volleyball, and football.

"Julia was an amazing nanny for my boys! At the time we had a five year-old and 18 month old. She created engaging lesson plans for my boys that met them where they were. She took them to the library, down to the farmers market to see live music, to the park, to the zoo, and even made just hanging out at our house or in the backyard a fun and educational time! She did science experiments and arts and crafts and ran and played with them. She was patient and kind and did not ignore them so she could be on her phone. We all (husband and kids included) reminisce fondly about her! She was one of the best things that happened to our family during that season of life. I would, without a doubt, recommend her to anyone looking for a similar experience!"

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Paulina. I'm a 31 year old artist. I'm an empathetic, energetic, creative and organized person.
While my job history varies from pet care to hospitality and retail, I have always had an inclination towards caring for kids.
Connecting with children comes naturally to me. I take influence from the atmosphere my parents created for me and my sisters growing up, along with the attention to detail I received from my kindergarten and 5th grade teachers. When I was a child, those few experiences were in high contrast to most others and lead me to the sensitivity I have for kids.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in New Orleans, LA

Before beginning the search for a babysitter, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a babysitter is the right choice for your child care needs. There are lots of benefits to hiring a babysitter such as getting the flexibility of having some more time for yourself or with your partner. When hiring a babysitter, first, you should explore the differences between a nanny and a babysitter. If you’re looking for occasional child care, babysitters are the right choice for you, but if you’re looking for more frequent care, a nanny may be better for your needs.

From there, you can think about what you expect your babysitter to handle so that you can create a profile for nannies to reach out to you. The boundaries for babysitters’ duties can vary from family to family. However, in general, a babysitter is responsible for making sure your kids’ needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example to housekeeping, laundry, or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your babysitter before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location in New Orleans can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

New Orleans Babysitter Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective babysitters, the next step is to conduct an interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some babysitter interview questions to consider asking:

  • Do you have experience being a babysitter?
  • What sort of household tasks are you open and comfortable doing?
  • Do you have any references?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Louisiana?
  • Do you have a Louisiana driver’s license? Do you own a car?
  • How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?

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 babysitter that you’re considering hiring, make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your babysitter. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around babysitter responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming!

And of course, as you learn how to hire a babysitter, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
