A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Fatou, I’m a dedicated and nurturing nanny with over 15years of experience caring for children, especially infants and toddlers. I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I always prioritize safety, development and emotional well being. I enjoy planning fun, age appropriate activities that support learning through play..like reading, going to the library, play date and going to the parks…I’m also comfortable tidying play area and supporting daily routine like nap time and potty training. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and communicative. I aim to build a strong, trusting relationship with both children and parents I work with.

Recent reference

"Fatou has been with us since our son was 3 months old, and she has truly become part of our family. She’s cared for both our toddler and our 10-year-old with such warmth, consistency, and skill. Fatou has years of experience with children of all ages and brings a calm, joyful energy to each day. Here are a few things that really stand out about her: Loving and affectionate – She treats the kids like her own and creates an environment where they feel safe and adored. Bilingual – She speaks both French and English fluently. Active and engaged – She takes the kids outside daily whenever weather allows. A wonderful cook – We’ve been lucky to benefit from her delicious meals! Light-hearted and fun – She brings laughter and warmth to the home. Exceptionally patient – She’s never once raised her voice and is incredibly even-keeled through all the highs and lows of childcare. Safety-minded – As a nurse, I have high expectations here, and I’ve always had full confidence in her."

A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Auberte Tete, I like to go by Betty. I am an organized and very committed caregiver and I have been dedicated to my job for over 12 years. It is always a pleasure providing my best to families in need of care services. I can always stay extra time when needed and assist with household services if needed. I feel like I was born for my kind of job, and caring for others is very validating to me, most especially for people with special needs (children and adults). I was raised in a family of six and I will also be the one to take the lead in terms of caring for my siblings and also my grandparents. I have a home health license and have worked for numerous families and assisted them with caring for their love ones. I have knowledge in health care also, as I own a Bachelors degree in Health Information Management from Coppin State university. I could be a game changer in caring for your love ones. I will love to provide my services to you and your family.

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

Silver Spring 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.
