A little bit about me

I started off babysitting throughout high school and ended up working in childcare centers afterwards. I have about 10 years of experience in the childcare field. I'm also bilingual (Spanish), my parents are from Dominican Republic but I was born in Virginia and later moved to Maryland with my mother. My mother actually sparked my interest in caring for other children since she's been a nanny/housekeeper for most of her life. I loved the connection she had with the children and their families.

Recent reference

"Rossana started working for us when our eldest son was 4yo and our second born was just 2mo. She was with us when we welcomed a third son 2 years later. She is caring, extremely reliable, always on time and trustworthy. She not only cared for our 3 young boys, juggling school drop off’s and pick up’s, but helped out around the house—she regularly did the boys laundry, helped with bottles and dishes, made beds, and kept our living spaces tidy. She formed relationships with other nannies in our neighborhood and would always bring our boys to play dates and meet up’s at the library or playground. She was great with our boys at all stages—following our desired schedules when they were infants, playing and being silly as they became toddlers, and even helping our now 6 year old son practice his reading and writing. She was a wonderful addition to our family and we highly recommend her!"

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

Rockville 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.
