A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Makena Campbell and I am an 18 year old student from Portland, Oregon. I will be graduating high school in June and am looking for a nanny job throughout the summer! I am a caring, loving person with a hardworking and motivated mindset. I have worked the last two years at a local private school aftercare, caring for children ages 3-14 for three hours after school daily. Along with this, I balanced my competitive dance schedule and school work while maintaining a high GPA. I love getting to be a part of kids upbringings and watching them grow and become the person they are. I hope to meet a wonderful family whom I can help this summer!!

A little bit about me
My name is Maddie, I am a college student living and working in Portland for the summer to gain new experiences in a new city! I have worked as a nanny for an infant in Seattle, for infant twins in my hometown and for families with older children too. I love being out in nature, reading stories, going on adventures and having mentally enriching play time at home. I am a multi-tasked by nature and am always tidying as I go so lay those chores on me! I was raised by a medical professional and have first-aid and CPR training so I am calm, collected and prepared in situations that require first aid. I completed have a degrees worth of early childhood education and development but have recently changed majors to follow another passion. However I retained a lot from the courses I took and implement them in all interactions with little and not so little ones. I look forward to meeting you and your kiddo(s)!!

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Portland, OR

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 Portland, OR
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.
