A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Marissa DePalma and I’m looking to care for children ages 1–12. I absolutely love being around kids and find it very fun and rewarding. I have 3 years of experience babysitting ages 2–10. I’m a third-year college student at James Madison University studying Architectural Design with a 3.5+ GPA. I’ll be living in Ocean City, MD this summer and would love to be a part-time nanny both to save for college and help out busy families! I also enjoy cleaning, so expect a tidied house upon returning unless told otherwise. I’m a careful driver with good social awareness to avoid any potential harm. I’d like to mention that I’m a fun and lively person who would create enjoyable, engaging activities for your child—whether it’s arts and crafts (which I absolutely love and would love to share with them) or outdoor games like running around and playing tag. I treat every day not like a job, but as something I truly look forward to. I’ll have just as much fun as your kids will!

A little bit about me

For nearly six years, I worked as a live-in nanny for a wonderful family in New Jersey, caring for two young boys whom I began looking after when they were just 3 and 6 years old. One of the boys had special needs, allowing me to develop patience, adaptability, and a deep understanding of individualized care while creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for both children. During this time, I also balanced the responsibilities of being a full-time student at Kean University, strengthening my time management, organization, and ability to thrive under pressure. This experience shaped me both personally and professionally, teaching me compassion, responsibility, and the importance of building meaningful relationships with the families I serve.

A little bit about me

My name is Klara and I am currently pursuing a graduate degree in Anthropology and History of Art in Croatia, but i'm in OC for the summer!
During college, I have had various job experiences, some of which have allowed me to interact with children in different ways. For instance, I was a guide in museums, worked in a zoo, and volunteered in a children's home, among other things. I also worked as a children's animator for a summer and occasionally babysat kids over the years. In addition, I lectured on first aid in The Red Cross. I love working with children because they are honest and open, and I believe that everyone is unique in their own way. I enjoy playing and helping them learn new things (and learn from them as well:)).
I try to adapt to each child's personality, upbringing, and interests, and I strive to help them complete their tasks, whether they are related to school or household chores, in a fun and engaging way that involves playfulness and creativity!

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Ocean City, 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 Ocean City can impact how much you pay your babysitter.

Ocean City 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.
