A little bit about me

Hi there!
I'm a 32-year-old caregiver with over 12 years of professional nanny experience. I most recently cared for 3-year-old twins and currently work part-time as a Guide at an Acton Academy in Harford County. I also have a 2-year-old daughter and am loving the mom life! I'm hoping to find a nanny position where she can come along with me!

I take a Montessori-inspired approach, encouraging independence, curiosity, and hands-on learning. Before becoming a nanny, I spent years babysitting and working with kids ages 3-13 in children's musical theater. I'm comfortable with all ages, twins, and children with special needs. I love staying active, being creative, and making everyday moments-like kitchen dance parties-fun and meaningful.

A little bit about me

I am a dedicated, nurturing, and highly motivated caregiver with hands-on daily experience raising my 28-month-old son. Motherhood has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to create a safe, structured, and loving environment where children can thrive.

I spend my days actively engaging in play, coloring, developmental activities, and encouraging creativity and curiosity. I understand the importance of routine, positive reinforcement, and age-appropriate learning through play. I am attentive to emotional needs, developmental milestones, and creating a calm, consistent atmosphere.

I take pride in being dependable, hardworking, and trustworthy. My work ethic is strong — I show up fully, stay present, and genuinely care about the well-being and growth of the children in my care. I believe in open communication with parents and working as a team to support each child’s development.

Caring for children isn’t just something I do — it’s something I’m passionate about.

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

Bel Air 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.
