A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Blanca, I have been a professional child care provider for over 26 years. I have worked in different child care educational settings, giving me the following experience in the field : 3 years as a private school Kindergarten teacher, 9 years at Home Child Care/ Development Centers ( private and non) and 14 years as a private nanny. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, don't drink or smoke and will use basic sign language when caring for infants /toddlers as they learn to communicate with their body gestures faster than verbally. I am CPR / First Aid certified and focus on cognitive and emotional child development quality learning.
I am a published author in peaceful parenting and am currently certifying myself as a parenting coach on the same topic. My specialty is Newborn and Early Childhood ages. I look forward to potentially being part of your child's early academic endeavors!!!

A little bit about me

Hello families! I am a freshman in college studying for my criminal justice degree from home looking for a full time childcare job. I find joy in creating a safe and nurturing environment for children to thrive in. One of the experiences that has shaped my passion for childcare is my time working at an aftercare program for a private school called St. John the Evangelist in Silver Spring Maryland. My coworker and I cared for 20 children ages 3-6 daily after school. It was incredibly rewarding to see the children grow and develop under my care. In addition to my work at the aftercare program, I have several years of experience in babysitting and tutoring. I am employed with Aristotle circle tutors and have worked at group homes and with clients tutoring children of all ages and tutored multiple subjects. These experiences have taught me how to connect with children on an individual level, understanding their unique interests and needs.

A little bit about me

I am a high school student with a 4.0 GPA going to the Bullis School. I am responsible and hold multiple elected positions. I am very comfortable caring for children and often end up as defacto child care at most family gatherings. I can cook, clean, and help your kids with homework. I am passionate about art and music, and I can play some video games with your kid too if you allow it.

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.
