A little bit about me

I used to live in foster care when growing up so I understand the importance of having someone around when parent is not present in a child in need of help or attention as I was also someone in a similar position, so I understand from the child's point of view of wanting attention or be around with someone. Living in foster care taught me life changing skill that helps me towards being a better person and helps me expand my view of my surrounding that teaches me to be considerate of what's around me.

A little bit about me

Im a U.S. citizen that was born in Sri Lanka. I speak Sinhalese and English. I have a daughter of my own and I adore taking care of children. They remind me that there is still good in the world in tough times. Seeing the future of the world right before my eyes brightens my day. I know how tough it can be to work with children and understand their needs, I’ve experienced it first hand, but I also know how rewording it is and how grateful and happy children can be. I love kids, and I intend to share that love infinitely in taking care of your kids and keeping them safe and happy. I only hope that your kids will be as excited to meet me, as I am to meet them.

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.
