A little bit about me

My nanny experience go a long ways back starting elementary school with kids who have special needs to the future. I have volunteered at multiple Child Care providing businesses and homes as well as even having my own in home daycare. My number one thing to instill in my kids is education and life (self care)❤ God's Little Creatures that he has granted most of us to guard over is extremely amazing to me. Their size, their smile, their intelligence, their creativity, their hope...everything that a positive child has to express makes me feel better about Life.

A little bit about me

Hi, My name is Kaiya Stancil. I’m a responsible and caring 17-year-old with a passion for working with children. While I may not have formal nanny experience yet, I have a natural love for caring for others and creating a fun, safe environment for kids. I’m currently getting my CPR certification and enrolled in a pharmacy technician program, which has taught me the importance of safety, patience, and attention to detail.

I enjoy helping with activities like arts and crafts, homework, and outdoor play. Parents can count on me to be reliable, patient, and always focused on their child’s well-being.

I’m available for [part-time, weekends, or babysitting jobs], and I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and homework assistance.

I’m excited to start gaining experience and making a positive impact on families!

Feel free to reach out — I’d love to chat and see if I’m the right fit for your family!

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

Waldorf 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.
