A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sierra McGill, and I’m an 18 year old college student with several years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve spent a lot of time babysitting my three younger siblings as well as my cousins, so I’m very comfortable caring for children of different ages and personalities. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe and fun environment for kids. I’ll be returning to the Baltimore County area starting May 17th and would love the opportunity to support a family in need of a reliable and caring nanny.

A little bit about me

Hi!

My name is Maliah. I’m a student at Morgan State University studying political science. I’m originally from Phoenix, Arizona and moved to Baltimore to continue my education. I’m also a dog mom, so I’m very comfortable around pets and understand the importance of patience, routine, and care.

I’ve always loved working with children and have experience caring for kids from newborn age through preschool, though I truly enjoy children of all ages. My approach to childcare focuses on nurturing, attentiveness, and creating a safe, loving environment where children feel supported as they grow. I’m especially mindful with infants and toddlers, paying close attention to emotional comfort, daily routines, and developmental milestones.

Outside of school and childcare, I enjoy hiking and spending time outdoors, which I love incorporating into age appropriate activities when possible. I’m responsible, patient, and committed to providing families with dependable and thoughtful care.

I’m a patient, dependable, and positive person who enjoys creating a fun, structured environment where children can learn, play, and grow.

Families can count on me to be reliable, organized, and attentive to their children’s needs.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Koreta, a 21-year-old college student from Cameroon. As the oldest daughter in a large family with eight younger siblings, I have years of hands-on childcare experience that taught me responsibility, patience, and strong communication skills.

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.
