"Alexandra is a responsible and caring sitter and someone we could count on to not only care for our kids but also have fun with them. My kids loved having her as a sitter! She provided transportation for my daughter from a summer camp and gave my son rides where he needed to be as well. Our kids were always safe and well entertained while in her care. My kids and I both highly recommend her!"

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Missouri

Nanny Lane helps you find a summer nanny in Missouri 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 Missouri

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.
