A little bit about me
My son is a sophomore in college now, so I'm a bit lost, when it comes to afternoons. It's just me and our yellow Lab.
This is why I'm seeking an afternoon child care position. I miss those afterschool times. So much can happen when kids are debriefing from the day. It often spurs spontaneous conversations about the bug on the sidewalk, the window washers, the men gathered around a manhole in the street. It's a perfect time to stop by the fire station, the library, the dog park.
I'm looking to fill my afternoons doing something I enjoyed and did well. I'd like to be an extra set of hands for a parent or parents over a long period of time.

What Is an After-School Nanny?
An after-school nanny cares for school-age children on weekday afternoons, usually from school pickup until a parent gets home. It is a part-time role with a regular schedule, which suits nannies who want a consistent shorter day.
Common Responsibilities of After-School Nannies in Belmont, MA
After-school nannies pick up children from school or the bus stop, give them a snack, and help with homework. They also take children to activities and lessons, supervise play, and may prepare dinner or tidy up after the children before a parent arrives.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Share your school's dismissal time, the days you need care, and how you will handle early dismissals, holidays, and school breaks. Confirm whether you need the nanny to drive, and whether they would be comfortable transporting several children. A regular schedule makes it easier to find a good fit.
After-School Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Are you available at our school's dismissal time every weekday?
- Do you have a car, and are you comfortable driving children to activities?
- How would you handle homework and screen time?
- What would you do if a child was sick or hurt?
- Do you have experience with school-age children?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
