A little bit about me

I have 5 years experience providing excellent childcare for children ages 1 through 14. I love playing creative games and connecting with kids. I am able to help in household management as well, including laundry, cleaning and light cooking. I know how to create a healthy routine for kids, how to teach them to be accountable for their actions, and how to have fun with them most importantly! I am a college sophomore looking for a live-in nanny position for the summer only. I created my own tutoring business in 2019, so I am able to keep kids learning over the summer by creating a personalized curriculum for them, or even by helping them with existing schoolwork. I have a clean driving record, am COVID vaccinated, am CPR and first aid trained, and am a non-smoker.

A little bit about me

My first ever babysitting job was for a family with a 2-year-old child. I started babysitting at the age of 17 when I was a Junior in high school. As of now, I have babysat for a few family friends for kids of all ages, such as 4, 6 and 9. Also, I currently babysit for a family with 2 kids, one girl that is almost a year old, and a boy that is 3. Also for a family with 2 kids, one boy and one girl the ages of 5 and 6 and another family with 2 kids, 2 girls the ages of 6 and 9. As a 19-year-old, I am very responsible when it comes to caring for children. It is my responsibility to fulfil my job and make sure your child is in safe hands and that they have fun! I am an active person myself, so I love spending time outdoors. If your child is in elementary school, I would be able to help them homework from any subject. I also speak fluent Polish and have been taking Spanish for the past 3 years. I am a graduate of Lincoln Park High School from the International Baccalaureate Program. I currently am attending Loyola University in Chicago, majoring in the Nursing Program. I do have a drivers license, with a clean driving record, and am able to use my parent's car if needed. I am able to start ASAP! I am done with classes for the school year and am looking for a summer job as of now. I find out my fall schedule in July, so I would be able to know if i can stay long term in July. If you have any other questions feel free to message me.!

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Chicago, IL

Nanny Lane helps you find a summer nanny in Chicago, IL to take care of your children while school is out.

We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.

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 Chicago, IL

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.
