A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Ember!! I'm 20 years old, and will complete a Christian gap year program in May 2025. Next, I plan to study to major in social work and work with children. I have four younger siblings and have spent a lot of time with them, as I was homeschooled growing up. Currently, I work in the mornings at Dunkin, but I am looking for a part-time babysitting job in the afternoons/evenings. I have lots of experience babysitting overnight and during the day. For two years, I babysat children ages >1 year to age 11 at a Christian co-up. I love kids, and I am fine with pets in the house. If you have any questions, please shoot me a text!!

A little bit about me

Hello! I have a true mixture of experience when it comes to childcare, I’ve been a teacher intern for a 7th grade history class, worked at a daycare for a short period of time, and of course have watched over my brothers for an extended period of time. I would say I have quite a good amount of experience with animal care and household services, though my talents are more so for household services. Outside of work I tend to run Dungeons and Dragons, so if you need creativity for your kids I got you

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

Lake Shore 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.
