A little bit about me
My name is Zara. I am college student looking to be nanny for the summer and any other break I get from college. My major is Film, Photography and Visual Arts. I love working with kids and having fun with them. I am a very creative and energetic person. I am also very responsible and punctual. I love having fun, running around, cooking, crocheting and especially working out. Lifting is one of my favourite things to do. I grew up in a very kind and loving family and just how my parents treated me with compassion and affection, I love to babysit kids that way.
Back when I lived in California, I babysat a lot of children, Toddlers, preschoolers and school-aged children. Sometimes, I would babysit one kid and other times I am asked to take care of a group of them. That's why I am good at managing stressful situations especially when children are very agitated. In fact, I grew up taking care of my cousins so I really enjoy the company of kids and babies too.

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Ithaca, NY

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 Ithaca, NY
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.
