A little bit about me

I am a multiracial adoptee with a deep curiosity about human nature and life. I am multifaceted, driven and sensitive. After obtaining my G.E.D. in 2007, I explored various paths, including work and some college, before finding my passion in professional massage therapy, graduating in 2017. My interests are broad and include outdoor activities, dancing, holistic wellness, the arts, and traveling. I have babysat and nannied on-and-off throughout the last 24 years, and I grew up with au pairs, nannies, and babysitters. I am especially drawn to supporting families with neurodivergent children or those needing developmental assistance. I find joy in understanding and helping each unique child & family. It takes a village, and being a valued part of a family / team is deeply rewarding. I love guiding children through conversations and helping them celebrate new levels of understanding. The reciprocal learning and growth that can happen is what keeps me coming back to this profession.

"I am so glad Geneva was our nanny! She cared for our daughter from age 6 months to 18 months, along with another little boy of the same age (we had a nanny share). She is kind, caring, responsible, patient, and very experienced. And as first time parents we really appreciated her experience! She got the kids on a solid nap schedule, moved them from 2 to 1 nap/day, helped us transition to solids, moved them from bottles to cups, taught them to wash their hands, so much. She read and sang with the kids, took them outside, and came up with fun and engaging activities for them. They just loved her and once they could walk they would run to her every day when she arrived. I felt completely comfortable with her caring for my daughter and highly recommend her."

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

Hyattsville 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.
