A little bit about me

As a teacher of young children I have 2 years of experience, in addition I worked as a nanny for
5 years, taking care of children between 2 months to 4 years old. I love to improve myself
everyday, I have child care certificates approved by the State of Maryland. As a nanny, I like to
give children a safe space, where we not only play but also learn. My skills as a teacher make
me able to do activities that stimulate motor skills, language, and establish a natural routine for
the children at home.
I consider myself a cheerful person and enjoy playing with children. I aim to be cooperative,
enjoy teamwork, always willing to make positive changes in response to constructive criticism. I
am an advocate for my work by representing with my professionalism, ethics and example a
high quality early childhood education program in which I help children become
productive citizen.

"Barbara is very dedicated caregiver with the nicest smile that every infant can fall for it. Very kind and gentle. She has a soft touch when she is taking care of my infant. She played educational activities helping my daughter development and soothed her with nice songs during nap time. Also respected all the instructions that I provided regarding my daughter meals, naps and activities. Very respectful, always replied nicely to my messages and accommodate my request whenever is possible. Highly recommend her for any mom looking for a kind and professional caregiver 😊"

A little bit about me

I simply love working with children. I love helping and watching children go through every stage of their young lives. Growing up, my mom owned a daycare and that’s where my never ending love and passion for childcare started. I knew at a young age my heart was crafted to care for and to love children. I spent my pre-teen years and my teenage years investing in the lives of children through internships, volunteer work, babysitting, tutoring and working at various daycares and schools. A few of my strengths include the fact that i’m patient, caring, reliable, creative ,organized , friendly and experienced.

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.
