A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Luhana, and I have about 6 years of experience working with children of all ages. For 5 years, I was part of a youth mentor program, dedicating 5–10 hours a week to guiding and supporting pre-teens. In my junior year of high school, I taught swimming lessons to kids ages 2–13, helping them build both skills and confidence in the water.
I’ve also cared for my younger cousins (ages 4–12) during family events, so I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities and needs. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to creating a safe and fun environment. As for my hobbies, I enjoy cooking, baking, cleaning, reading, and crocheting—and I’m happy to incorporate these hobbies into activities with kids, as well as more active hobbies. I’m an incoming freshman at Cal Poly Humboldt, studying Mechanical Engineering.

How to Hire a Weekend Nanny in Arcata, CA
Nanny Lane helps you find a weekend nanny in Arcata, CA who fits your family's schedule. Browse profiles of nannies who are available on Saturdays or Sundays, then message the ones you like.
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 Weekend Nanny?
A weekend nanny cares for your children on Saturdays, Sundays, or both. Some weekend nannies work every weekend, and others are available for the occasional weekend when you have an event, a trip, or a work commitment. Many have another job during the week, so they are often flexible about shorter shifts and one-off dates.
Common Responsibilities of Weekend Nannies in Arcata, CA
Weekend care looks a lot like any other nanny job: supervising play, preparing meals and snacks, getting children to activities, and keeping to nap and bedtime routines. Because weekends are often busier and more active, you may also ask for help with outings, birthday parties, sports games, or family errands.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Be clear about the days and hours you need, whether the schedule is regular or occasional, and how much notice you can give. Rates and pay rules, including how weekend hours are paid, vary by state or province, so agree the details in writing and consider using nanny payroll to keep it simple. If you only need a few weekends a year, say so up front so nannies can plan around it.
Weekend 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 weekends are you available, and how much notice do you need?
- Do you work every weekend or only occasionally?
- Are you comfortable with outings and activities, and with driving the children if needed?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
- What rate do you charge for weekend shifts?
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.
