My name is Jessica. I am 32 and a single mom to a 20 month old daughter. I would kindly ask that I could bring my daughter each day with me. I absolutely love being a mother and working with children! Currently, I am going to school online to become a speech therapist and work with children.

A little bit about me

Hey my name is Casey, I come from a mixed family of 12 so I have a lot of experience in caring for children. I am a middle child so I’ve spent the most time with babies, toddlers, and children under 13. I’ve interned at an elementary school and was in a program for a preschool through my high school. I am able to do house work, cook, aid in play time, and aid in academic improvement. I love working with kids and seeing them thrive and have fun. I wouldn’t call myself the average babysitter because I have more to offer than just watching children. I look forward to helping parents in need of time out the house or even help when they are at work. I am a senior in high school currently working part time in retail and look forward ways to earn a little extra money for prom, graduation, and college expenses.

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

Odenton 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.
