A little bit about me

My name is Susan Ortiz, owner and provider of Happy Childhood Family Child Care, a licensed home-based daycare created with love and a strong passion for early childhood development. I’m a proud mom of two girls and have over four years of hands-on experience caring for young children. My journey as both a mother and childcare provider has shaped the warmth and values behind my program.

Families often share that they appreciate the genuine love, patience, and understanding I bring every day. I know how much trust it takes to leave your child with someone else, so I work hard to create a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment that feels like a second home.
I have completed all required childcare training for Montgomery County and I am also a Certified Medical Assistant, giving me knowledge in children’s health, safety, hygiene, and emergency response. This background allows me to maintain a secure space, respond confidently when needed, and provide families with true peace of mind.

A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Princess Kinard . I'm 26 years old of age and I currently live in Germantown,MD.

Alittle bit about me:
I come from a family of childcare provides. My mother, grandmother and aunt are all licensed childcare providers in the state of Maryland. So growing up, watching them create a bond with the children, really inspired me to want to work with children myself. I am certified in my 90 Clock Hour, SEFEL, How To Prevent Childhood Obesity, Special Needs Trainings, MSDE -Basic Health and Safety, Americans With Disabilities and How To Administer Medication To Children. An I also plan to get my CPR first aid course certification renewed very soon. I have experience working with Infants through 4 years old. I have worked as both a nanny and a certified preschool teacher with up to 6 children at a time.

I have a two year old son that I would love to bring with me

Thank you!

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

Darnestown 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.
