A little bit about me

Hi my name is Jasmine Taylor. I am a 30 year old, single mother of 4, and I have been in the childcare business since 2012. I am originally from Heathsville, VA, but I now reside in Laurel, MD.

I previously worked at Northern Neck YMCA as a Teacher Assistant for the Infants and Toddlers, Threes, and Four year old classes, as well as, Assisted with After-School care and Summer Camp. I did everything from feeding and changing infants to helping little ones fall asleep for nap to arts and crafts and music during the day.

I now work at Bright Horizons- FDIC, as an Associate Teacher for the Toddler Program, but due to COVID, my hours aren’t where I would like them to be. Here I do everything that I did at the YMCA, as well as lesson plans and activities.

If you believe I would be a great fit for you family, contact me. Looking forward to speaking with you.

A little bit about me

I am young, energetic and have been a babysitter for quite some time. I love to explore new things and spread wisdom. Working at Bar-t I was always teaching my kids something new (mainly basic life skills like how to regulate their emotions). I’m very hands on and active 80% of the time. I love to cook and would like to involve the kids with making their own meals. Most importantly I’m all for having fun while still being safe!

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.
