A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Madison Lipsky and i am a senior at Towson University. I love kids and am a very respectful and genuine person. My experience as a lifeguard has provided me with protective instincts, a knack for children, and multiple safety certifications. I am a fun loving, responsible, 21 year old who would take very good care of any child while becoming a comfortable adult for them in which they can confide in and trust. I am fun, responsible, and loving and am eager to work for a family that shares these same attributes :)

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Shadiamon. I’m an elementary school teacher, and working with children is truly something I enjoy. I love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun while making sure they feel safe, supported, and cared for.

I’m patient, dependable, and love finding creative ways to keep children engaged, whether that’s arts and crafts, reading stories, outdoor play, educational games, or helping with homework. I understand the importance of routines, clear communication, and creating an environment where children feel comfortable being themselves.

As a teacher, I’m experienced with children of different personalities, learning styles, and needs, and I bring that same level of care and attentiveness into every family I work with. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I strive to be that dependable, positive person for both kids and parents.

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

Towson 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.
