A little bit about me

My name is Faith. I have been working with kids since I was 13 years old. I have experience with all ages from infants-high schoolers in all settings including summer camps, schools, daycares, and nannying . My goal is to become a kindergarten teacher. Children are my passion and gift. I currently have a 3 month old daughter who I would need to bring with me as well. So I’m looking for the perfect family!

"Faith did a wonderful job with our 3 children (Ages 9, 7, and baby) while they were learning at home. With the older kids, she helped them with their school work, organized activities for them during their days off, and made them lunch and snacks. The kids really loved her (they cried when they found out she was leaving) and appreciated her calm, helpful approach. She kept them on task without stressing them out. On days off she liked to bake with them or do arts and crafts. Faith was also great with our baby. She was fully in charge of the baby starting at 4 months old. She managed all the feeding, napping, and nurturing/engaging the baby during the day. Our little one is suspicious of non-family members, but quickly formed a bond with Faith. Faith is one of the few people the baby actually trusts to pick her up (or consistently make her laugh). All of our kids are going to school, so we are sorry to see her go, but I'm sure she'll do a great job for another family!"

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

Oxon Hill 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.
