A little bit about me

Hey, my name is Te’Onni! I am a dedicated, caring, and patient childcare professional with several years of experience working with children. I currently work as a lead toddler teacher and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and be themselves. I love planning age-appropriate activities, helping children reach developmental milestones, and building strong relationships with both children and their families. I’m dependable, attentive, and passionate about making sure every child feels loved, comfortable, and supported.

A little bit about me

I am a compassionate, trustworthy, and enthusiastic caregiver with approximately three years of experience working as an infant and toddler teacher, along with five years of experience caring for adults with dementia and other specialized care needs. My background has taught me the importance of patience, safety, understanding, and providing individualized care to meet each person’s unique needs.

As a mother to a seven-year-old child with autism, I also have personal experience understanding the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, nurturing environment for children. If given the opportunity to care for your child, I would treat them with the same love, respect, and attention that I would give my own. My goal is to ensure every child in my care feels safe, supported, valued, and loved while providing parents with peace of mind knowing their little one is in capable and caring hands.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Baltimore, MD

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 Baltimore can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Baltimore 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 Maryland?
  • Do you have a Maryland 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.
