A little bit about me

My name is Cheyenne, and I am a 23-year-old college student currently pursuing my studies in dance in Maryland. Although I am originally from New Jersey, I am in the process of transitioning my life to Maryland as I continue to grow both personally and professionally.

I have over a year of experience working as a daycare teacher, where I developed a strong passion for supporting and nurturing children. In addition to that, I have also worked as a dance instructor, combining my love for dance with my dedication to mentoring young individuals. These experiences have strengthened my ability to be a positive role model and have deepened my appreciation for working with children.

At this stage in my life, I am focused on exploring my path and building a meaningful future. My long-term goal is to become an Anesthesia Nurse, where I can continue to care for others and make a lasting impact in the healthcare field.

A little bit about me

I am someone who truly believes that every child deserves to feel seen, celebrated, and capable of amazing things. Working with children, especially those with disabilities, isn’t just my profession—it’s my heart’s work. I find so much joy in creating playful, supportive spaces where children can explore, learn, and simply be themselves. Whether we’re laughing over a silly game, celebrating a small victory, or discovering a new skill together, I strive to make every moment meaningful and fun. Children naturally gravitate toward me because they know they are safe, understood, and valued. Their smiles, trust, and excitement remind me every day why I chose this path, and I am endlessly grateful to be part of their growth, confidence, and bright futures.

A little bit about me

Hello everyone,

My name is Jayana. I grew up in the child care system, with my mother running child care businesses. Inspired by the love and guidance I received from teachers, I chose at 17 to follow in her footsteps and work with children. I am also a registered EMT in the state of Maryland, which fuels my deep commitment to caring for both younger and older individuals. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with you and look forward to our future collaboration. Thank you, and have a blessed day!

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.
