A little bit about me

I am a mother of three and a grandmother of nine. I have taken care of all of them. My oldest granddaughter is 18 and the youngest grandson two. I fed the children, administered medication, and took them to school and doctor’s appointments. I watched over them at swim lessons and when they learned to ride a bicycle.
I am a high school graduate, and I came to America from Nigeria in June, 2018. I love making new friends, travel, reading, church, and driving. I am a happy person and enjoy learning new things and new ideas. I do not use alcohol or tobacco.
I am dependable, reliable, compassionate and caring. I am proud of my rich experiences with children. I can bring your children up in your home. I can be your nanny or your baby sitter.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Susana. I’ve been working in childcare for over 10 years as both a nanny and a preschool teacher, caring for children from infancy through early elementary. I’m calm, reliable, and very affectionate, and I truly treat the kids I care for like my own.

I love creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can grow, play, and feel secure. I’m confident with routines, sleep schedules, and handling both the sweet and challenging moments that come with caring for little ones. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and easy to communicate with.

I’m looking for a family where there’s mutual trust, respect, and a shared goal of giving your child the best care possible.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Gaithersburg, MD

Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.

Gaithersburg Nanny Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective nannies, the next step is a nanny interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some nanny interview questions to consider asking:

  • Do you have experience being a nanny?
  • How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
  • What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
  • Are you open to a live in arrangement in Gaithersburg? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
  • Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
  • Do you have any references?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Gaithersburg?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in MD? Do you own a car?
  • What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
  • What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?

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 prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help

Daycare vs. Hiring a Nanny

Choosing between putting your child in daycare and hiring a nanny can be a tough decision. While nannies are often more expensive, they provide individualized attention and flexibility. Daycares, on the other hand, prioritize socialization. Our Nanny vs Daycare guide can help you determine what's best for your family.
