A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is A’monya but you can also call me Yay. I am a 23 year old female that currently works as a RBT (working in home and in clinic). My previous clients describe me as a bubbly ray of sunshine. I personally look for the good in everything. I honestly am just a big kid at heart.

I am currently BLS certified as well. I have been working in childcare for 3 years and I absolutely love everything about it!!!. I am an older sister so I believe I was born to work with children lol.

I love doing arts and crafts, taking walks, playing board games, reading, and trying new things. Working with children has allowed me to pick up pretty cool hobbies like building legos and playing minecraft, and i'm open to new ideas!

A little bit about me

I am 20 years old college student and the elder of a family of 3 children. As the oldest of all my cousins with a big gap between my age and theirs, I have always been in the position of babysitter. Thus, it made me extremely caring, patient, friendly, and a good listener. I am naturally a hard worker and an enthusiastic person. I love reading, cooking, and playing board games. By the way, I am a good cook.

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

Silver Spring 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.
