Because of the reciprocity agreement it genuinely doesn't matter which state EXCEPT if you are going to be sending in any withholding for your household employee.  In that case you put the state that you paid the taxes to.

 

If you were going to set this up to send in withholding I would tell you to set your employee up with Maryland taxes withheld and sent in because your employee files and pays taxes in Maryland.  So I would put Maryland as the state regardless.
