A little bit about me

Hi there! I’m a graduating senior from North Hagerstown High School, currently in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme, and I’m hoping to be the perfect sitter for you! I’ve been looking after children for nearly 6 years now, I was a junior volunteer at Girls Inc of Washington County and I’ve looked after the children of my older cousins as well from infancy through kindergarten. I would be honored to help you out with anything that you need, rain or shine!

A little bit about me

I have always loved working with children, I never really see myself as happy as I am anywhere else when I work with kids. I believe that kids have those couple of people they interact with that stay in their heart forever aside from family.

A little bit about me

My name is Juliana Harbert and I am 17 years old. I am a junior in high school but in the early college program at Hagerstown Community College, so I have a college schedule. I have worked with many children specifically on swimming but I am very patient and caring towards children. They hit a spot in my heart that makes me want to protect them and their innocence.

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

Hagerstown 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.
