A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Calia, and I’m a reliable, caring, and energetic nanny with a passion for working with children of all ages. I have experience creating a safe, fun, and structured environment where kids can learn, play, and grow. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning engaging activities, or keeping routines running smoothly, I always aim to support both children and parents in the best way possible.

I pride myself on being patient, attentive, and dependable. I understand how important it is to build trust with families, and I strive to create a positive, nurturing relationship with every child I care for. I’m also happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, and anything else that helps make your day a little easier.

A little bit about me

Hiya! I am Carlise and working with children is my passion. Starting in Special Education I found my home. Working especially with nonverbal autistic students was my niche. I have since ventured into general elementary education as a Social Emotional Learning Teacher. Working with the big feelings of small humans😊. Focusing on breath work, calming strategies, and being proactive instead of reactive. I have worked lots with little friends and their fine motor skills through calming and engaging activities such as cutting paper "grass" to reveal flowers that have emotion faces, and working through what the faces mean and what feelings are attached! I have also brought this work home to my toddler niece, who has since transitioned into school far ahead of her peers both emotionally and academically. I would LOVE to transfer these skills to a home setting, all the best parts of us humans comes from home and I'd love to bring my aspect to your family💕- Ms. C

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

Arbutus 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.
