A little bit about me
I didn't always know that I would want to work with kids. For me, it really started about three years ago when I began tutoring online, working with everyone from adults to small children. I realized nothing brought me more joy than seeing a child's face light up when they learned something new. Helping young ones grow and succeed became my passion, which eventually led me to become an ESL Instructional Assistant at an elementary school.
I'm looking for a summer position that allows me to work during the school break. With my background in teaching, I'll be able to help children stay engaged and ready for the next school year while also having fun. I am also certified in First Aid and CPR.

How to Hire a Short-Term Nanny in Columbus, OH
Nanny Lane helps you find a short-term nanny in Columbus, OH 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 Columbus, OH
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.
