A little bit about me

Hello! I am the mother of four children who I have poured my life and love into, and who are now in their teenage years. Although there has been a gap in my work as a paid caregiver, I have stayed involved in childcare opportunities both in my church and with the children of friends and family members. I recently moved to the Bowie, MD area and would love to be of help to a family seeking a caregiver who will be reliable, invested, and enthusiastic with their childcare needs. After years of having to rely on childcare for my own children, I know how important it is to know that your child is in a nurturing environment. I'm excited to help provide that environment for another family with the experience I've gained as a mother and caretaker!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Ky'Mea Calhoun. I am a 22-year-old college student, member of the US Army National Guard, and I also run my own business. I am a passionate nanny with over 5+ years of experience. I cared for children ages newborn to 8 years old. I am also CPR and First-Aid certified. My 3 main goals while taking care of children are to care for them mentally, physically, and emotionally. I intend to work a lot on healthy communication and growth skills. I love to be personable with the children I care for. It allows for us to connect and form a bond. I value honesty and being genuine. I chose to become a nanny because I love being able to mentor and help children grow as they celebrate new stages in their life. I am excited to work with you and your family!

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

Bowie 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.
