A little bit about me

Hello! I am a recent graduate from the University of Kansas and am looking for a summer gig before moving to Chicago for nursing school! I have worked at a childcare center/preschool for a total of 3 years and spent the majority of my time there in the infant (0-walking) and toddler/twos classrooms. This job has provided me with great hands-on learning experience and extensive training on how to care for young infants through preschool-age children. I also have experience in babysitting all kinds of ages of children since I was about age 15. As you can probably tell, I have a passion for caring for children! I also worked as a swim lesson instructor, lifeguard, and pool manager for 6 years, and therefore have my CPR and First aid training and am very confident in these skills. You can trust that your children will be well taken care of and safe when in my care :)

A little bit about me

I’m a recent college graduate with a degree in chemistry. I was a lifeguard for many years, so though I’m not first aid or CPR certified currently, I still have those skills. I have taught highschool through college age students academically and 3-15 in swimming lessons, and grew up helping in the church nursery so I have plenty of experience around children. I’m looking for seasonal work before I start my PhD and would love to help you with your kiddos!

How to Hire a Short-Term Nanny in Lawrence, KS

Nanny Lane helps you find a short-term nanny in Lawrence, KS for a temporary need, from a few weeks to a few months.

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 Short-Term Nanny?

A short-term nanny works for a set period rather than as an ongoing hire. Families look for short-term help when a parent is on leave, when they are between nannies, for a new baby, or while they are relocating or traveling. The end date is agreed at the start.

Common Responsibilities of Short-Term Nannies in Lawrence, KS

A short-term nanny takes on the same duties as any nanny, including caring for children, preparing meals, and keeping to routines, and often starts quickly. Because the role is temporary, they need a clear handover covering schedules, allergies, and house rules on day one.

What to Consider Before You Hire

Be upfront about the start date, the end date, and the chance of an extension. Fixed-term roles still benefit from clear pay terms, and a written agreement helps both sides. Short-term nannies who can start quickly are in demand, so message early.

Short-Term 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 for our dates, and could you extend if we need it?
  • How quickly could you start?
  • Have you worked short-term or fill-in roles before?
  • How would you get to know our routines quickly?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?

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.
