A little bit about me

Hi families, my name is Laurilyn, often called "Auntie Lali". I am an Auntie to four wonderful kiddos ages 3 to 13 in California, and I have a decade of experience with a variety of age groups. I also completed my Bachelors in Human Development from the University of California, Davis. I've studied the biological, cognitive, and social aspects of development of all ages - and I love them all!
I am also a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner; I have up to date CEU's and consult with roughly five clients per month. I am happy to incorporate nutrition in my nanny services and provide nourishing food for children to thrive.
My long-term goal is to be a Psychiatrist that incorporates nutrition in a healing protocol, for all ages.

Please reach out with any questions you may have; I'm happy to talk about your family needs via email, phone, or in person.

Cheers,
Laurilyn

A little bit about me

I am very responsible person, loving and I take care of the kiddos as they are mine children. I have been a nanny for many years; my first family I worked for 5 years (boy and girl), my second family I worked for 7+ years (2 girls), my third family I worked for 16 years (boy and girl), I worked for a family with multiple twins ( 2 years). Then, Covid hit; I worked with a family for a short time. My present family has 2 girls (6 and almost 4) and sadly I will be leaving this family at the end of May. I enjoy my job to the fullest and I still keep in touch with the family from previous jobs.

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

Kensington 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.
