A little bit about me

I have served as a public school educator/counselor for 32 years (mostly high school and middle school). I have a masters degree in psychology. I have two daughters, both are in college. I retired, but have returned to work in a school setting where I have some flexibility in my current job. I am off during the summer so I am available and flexible. I am also looking for a part time opportunity that would allow me to continue working in a job I love, but will allow me to provide a meaningful service to a busy family. I would be interested in before school and after school care for school age children. I could arrive early to assist with the morning routine and then get children to school. In the afternoons I would be available to pick children up from school, and at the end of the school day I could help with after school activities. I will be able to help with homework, meal prep and anything agreed upon that will be of assistance.

Recent reference

"From the very first day, Melissa was all in. She brought a fresh outlook to our school and was essential to our positive climate. She has basically run all of our activities for 19 years. She was also the glue that held us all together. When things are difficult, Melissa is steady and sees the light at the end of the tunnel. She is also extremely creative and talented. She is the person who can dream up the most outlandish plan and then successfully pull it off. When she left our school, it took 4 people to fill her shoes. I can recommend her highly enough."

What Is an After-School Nanny?

An after-school nanny cares for school-age children on weekday afternoons, usually from school pickup until a parent gets home. It is a part-time role with a regular schedule, which suits nannies who want a consistent shorter day.

Common Responsibilities of After-School Nannies in Waveland, MS

After-school nannies pick up children from school or the bus stop, give them a snack, and help with homework. They also take children to activities and lessons, supervise play, and may prepare dinner or tidy up after the children before a parent arrives.

What to Consider Before You Hire

Share your school's dismissal time, the days you need care, and how you will handle early dismissals, holidays, and school breaks. Confirm whether you need the nanny to drive, and whether they would be comfortable transporting several children. A regular schedule makes it easier to find a good fit.

After-School 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:

  • Are you available at our school's dismissal time every weekday?
  • Do you have a car, and are you comfortable driving children to activities?
  • How would you handle homework and screen time?
  • What would you do if a child was sick or hurt?
  • Do you have experience with school-age children?

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.
