A little bit about me

Hi, there!

Everyone calls me Shaky. I'm glad you're here.

A little about myself.

In a little over five years, I have worked with children (and adults) of several ages, to create safe environments and establish efficient routines.

I am perfectly aware that every individual and every family has unique needs, so I make it a point to know everyone as best as I can.

There is far too much to be said, but I can't wait to meet you and your beautiful family.

Ire o! (Blessings.)

Hello I am Alyssa! I am currently a college student looking for extra work in my free time. I have prior experience babysitting and have worked in a daycare with children and teens. I enjoy spending time with kids and teaching them new things. I am fun and very loving when it comes to children.

A little bit about me

I was first introduced to childcare as a child myself, helping out in my mother's childcare center. When I went to college, I sought employment in this familiar field. Over the years I have worked as a nanny, a teacher in childcare center classrooms and after school programs, high schoolers, children with immune diseases, and with children in the foster care system. I have worked with children who have mental or physical disabilities, as well as behavioral issues. My college coursework has included early childhood education courses, nutrition, and human services/social work. I have experience working with individuals and families from various different social, economic, and cultural backgrounds. My passion in life is helping others, and I've found working with children is one career that does just that!

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

Bowie 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.
