A little bit about me

Bachelor’s Degree in International Trade with over 10 years of experience in customs, imports, exports, and port logistics, as well as transportation companies and shipping lines in my home country. Currently, I am studying English and reinventing myself professionally.

During this process, I have discovered my natural inclination for caring for and attending to elderly individuals, babies, and children. Thanks to the experience I have gained with my nieces and nephews, along with the deep respect and love I have for my parents, I have developed an innate ability to provide empathetic and effective care.

This vocation has allowed me to strengthen my interpersonal skills and offer warm, respectful care tailored to each person’s needs.

A little bit about me

Hello! I have a M.A. in Early Childhood Education and a B.A. in Psychology. I’ve been an Early Childhood educator for over 10 years and a nanny for the past 4 years. I am fluent in English and Spanish and have my certification in infant/pediatric CPR and First Aid. I love bringing the “classroom to the home” by providing a lot of play- based activities, allowing the children in my care to strengthen and enhance their developmental goals/milestones. I have reliable transportation and references available upon request.


I am a first time mom, and like many families in the DMV area, I am from out of town and do not have any family support to help care for my child. Therefore I am seeking a family that will allow me to bring my child to work with me. In my experience as a teacher, and working with multiple children, I guarantee that your child will receive the best care that your family deserves!

I am available to start August 2023.

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

Gaithersburg 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.
