A little bit about me

I'm Maria from Colombia, I'm 25 years old and I worked in my home country as a English teacher for 2 years, also I was a former Au pair for 3 years and worked taking care of three awesome kids, twins and a girl. I started to take care of them when the boys were 8 months and the girl was 3 years and a half.
I've worked taking care of a brilliant boy for a year and currently I'm watching a baby boy who is 13 months, I've been with the family for almost 10 months but they are leaving the country so I'm seeking for a job opportunity to start the first week of December.
I enjoy taking care of kids and it has been such a wonderful experience learning about them; it has allow me to learn how to work with different ages at the same time, and also gave the opportunity to learn about special needs and the impact of helping others.
I consider myself compassionate, understanding, I'm responsible and adapt myself pretty easy, I'm a good listener and I'II try to do my best all the time.

A little bit about me

I have been nannying for 10+ years (with full-time service starting in 2019). My responsibilities have included overnight care, meal prep, home management, and traveling. Outside of nannying, I have also worked as an overnight camp counselor. I enjoy working with children because they keep me on my toes. They have such a vast array of interests and love asking questions. I often end up thinking about and researching topics I may not have otherwise encountered. With parents, I believe in honest and open communication at all times. In practice, this means that you can reach out to me at any time with questions, concerns, or any changes you want to make, and you can expect the same from me. This creates an environment in which healthy relationships are formed, and everyone's needs can be met. When working with me, you can expect that your child is my priority, and finding ways to make your life easier is my main goal.

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

Rockville 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.
