Hi, my name is Stef but the kids I’ve care(d) for call me, Ms. Stefy. I adore children and have a lot of experience. I started babysitting when I was 13 and then I took Learning about Children & Working with Children in High School. At age 18, I nannied for a family with two young children. In my twenties, I became a stay-at-home, Mom of two! I taught Sunday school and then when my kids were in elementary school I went back to college and took education courses. I have five years of experience teaching preschooler’s. I was a floater at Goddard and then became a teacher at Forest Hill Nature Preschool (ages 2-5). I have experience with special needs children and I am first aid & CPR certified. I graduated college with my associate's degree in general studies with honors. Currently, I work full-time nannying a busy, growing family of six. I am looking for a family or two to bless as their new, Mary Poppins!

Recent reference

"Stef has taught our eldest, taken care of our youngest, and watches our house and kitties! She combines her education background, love of the outdoors, and playful young heart to engage the kids. Stef helped facilitate virtual schooling during Covid, and helped supplement the curriculum with related activities. She took my kids for a nature walk one time, made them flower crowns, and helped grow their love and wonder of nature. We trust Stef to watch the house and two kitties while we are away. She feeds them loves on them as she would her own dog and cat! She even picked up some of my kids toy mess when that wasn’t part of what we had asked- what a weight off my shoulders. Stef goes above and beyond and loves our family as her own. You will even get lots of professional level pictures as she checks in, since she’s a photographer with a great eye on the side!"

I’ve worked with infants to school-aged children, including those with special needs, tailoring my approach to each child’s unique personality and developmental stage. My experience includes daily routines, educational activities, behavioral guidance, and emotional support in home and structured settings. I prioritize building trust with families while promoting growth, independence, and happiness. I am confident in caring for children with medical conditions such as diabetes, autism, and intellectual disabilities, ensuring a safe and stimulating environment.

A little bit about me

Hello!! My name is Brittany and I am a mother of two, a 15 year old daughter and 10 year old son. I absolutely love working with children from all ages, genders and backgrounds. I have a very fun spirit that loves to ensure that children are having a good time while always learning something new. I am very big on self-expression while being respectful; We can all learn from each other in someway or another. I am very clean so assisting families with light household duties would be a no brainer. I believe that healthy meals are important and impact out mental and physical well-being so meal prep and scheduled meals are something that I am able to assist with.

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

Abingdon 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.
