A little bit about me

I am a licensed Occupational Therapist returning to nannying / babysitting after 5 years as an OT working with both kiddos and adults. I am taking a hiatus from full time practice to find a part time family to care for while I work on my own business. I have always loved working with kids, first as a sitter for 10+ years and then as an OT with pediatric experience for 2 years. I have worked with kids from 2 months to 14 years old with experience in early child development, progressing developmental milestones, emotional regulation, sensory processing, ADHD management, and more. I love to incorporate developmentally appropriate play when I nanny, and my favorite activities with kiddos include reading, going outdoors, and using my languages if it’s a fit with the family. I treat childcare as more than just a job, and you will find that I am a responsible, patient, and nurturing caregiver who wants the best for your children. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

A little bit about me

My name is Aline, and I’m originally from Brazil. I have several years of experience working with children, both as an ESL teacher and a nanny. I love creating fun, educational, and supportive environments where kids feel safe, valued, and excited to learn.

I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Criminal Justice at Boston University remotely, and I previously worked as a teacher in public schools, where I taught English to students from diverse backgrounds. That experience taught me patience, communication, and how to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs.

I’m responsible, caring, and very organized. I enjoy cooking, keeping things tidy, and planning creative activities. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, bedtime routines, or family scheduling. I’m open to both part-time and live-in nanny positions, and I always bring a positive attitude, kindness, and reliability to the families I work with.

A little bit about me

Hello !! My name is Natasha. I am a current college student who is also taking a semester off at the moment. I am a nursing student who wants to specialize in pediatrics. Along with my many nieces and nephews who I’ve helped taken care of since the age of 9, I have occasionally babysitted and worked at the Children’s National Hospital over the summer. Kids are my pride and joy and I love watching them grow into who they are. I do have a part time job serving right now but I am pretty free during the day. As someone who has grown up with animals and has a dog herself, I am also okay with pets.

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

Bethesda 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.
