A little bit about me
I'm 33 years old and I've recently relocated back to Orange County where I am currently employed at an elementary school in Irvine (but it's summer break now, yayyy!).
I've worked in special education, ran an after-school bike program through the YMCA, taught health classes for high schoolers, and hosted cooking classes at the Boys and Girls Club. While finishing my undergrad I nannied part-time & coached girls soccer at the Boys and Girls Club in San Francisco. When I can, I spend most of my time outside—
riding my bike, surfing, playing soccer and tennis, running (with my dog), or backpacking.
I am available until Aug. 10th for work during the week, I am open to being available some evenings/ weekends after that.

What Is a Summer Nanny?
A summer nanny is a nanny who works during the school break, for the full summer or for part of it. Summer nannies are often teachers, college students, or experienced nannies who prefer seasonal work, so families can find help when school-age children are home during the day.
Common Responsibilities of Summer Nannies in Irvine, CA
Summer days are less structured than the school year. A summer nanny plans activities such as park visits, swimming, crafts, and day trips, prepares meals and snacks, and may take children to camps or classes. For younger children, they keep up the usual nap and mealtime routines.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Start your search early, since good summer nannies are booked quickly. Decide your start and end dates, your weekly hours, and whether you need flexibility around camps, vacations, or travel. Be clear about transportation, and about whether you need the nanny to drive. If your dates might change, say so up front.
Summer 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:
- Which dates are you available this summer?
- Are you able to adjust if our dates or hours change?
- What activities would you plan for the children during the day?
- Are you comfortable driving, including to camps and activities?
- Do you have experience with children of our children's ages?
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.
