A little bit about me

Hello everyone!

I am a 21-year-old college graduate studying Psychology. Outside of schooling, I have been babysitting/nannying infants, toddlers, and teens and I have also taken care of children with disabilities for about 4 years now professionally. I love to be active, play outside with kids, and let them explore their imagination. I have also taken child development and lifespan human development so I am also familiar with many aspects of development as well. In addition, I have recently renewed my CPR/First Aid certification, I am fully vaccinated, comfortable with pets, and have my own transportation!

A little bit about me

My number is [phone number hidden]. Hello everyone, I am Ms. Bre! I have worked at the daycare I currently work at for four years now. I love the kids there it is hard for me to leave. I am caring, loving, and responsible, among many other things. Some of the parents ask me to watch their kids when they have plans on the weekend or after the daycare closes. I have worked with infants - school age but I currently work with the two year olds. I follow a curriculum that is given to me and I teach them, we do activities, we eat, go outside, have circle time, have a fabulous day, etc! I have two younger brothers so, I have helped raise those two all my life and I still am because they are 7 and 13. I also was a CNA, I know how to do first aid and CPR but, it most likely expired.

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

Laurel 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.
