A little bit about me

I am young but also very experienced. My mother owns a daycare center and I have been working in the infant room since I was 13. I can cook and clean and I have a lot of energy to teach and play with a toddler. I do not have a drivers license and I am currently in high school but I do have a very flexible schedule for the summer.

A little bit about me

I have worked in childcare in a daycare setting for about the last 16 yrs. I attended howard community college to receive all my childcare certifications, I am also CPR/first aid certified and have my medication administration certificate. I absolutely love working with childcare. I work for howard county public schools as a student assistant working with kids in a regional program. Looks like schools and daycares will be close for a couple of weeks due to the virus that's going around. I work at an elementary school as a para educator. I know childcare is hard to find at the last minute, so if I'm able to help please feel free to contact me

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

Elkridge 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.
