A little bit about me

I have more life experience in caring for others than anything else. I have been caring for babies to adults, including those with special needs for over 12 years. With over 5 years of ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) experience and well over 20 years of working with children, I have always had a passion for working with children. Currently, I work with 18-22 year olds who are transitioning from high school to adulthood. We go out into the community to learn routes and attend worksites that give them a platform to use their skills and abilities so that in the future, they could potentially get employment. Additionally, they learn how to make purchases independently and browse places and areas they want to go. I am able to do basic cooking, cleaning, and caring for pets. I also do respite care. The transition program I work at ends on June 3rd. I will be open to other employment opportunities until it reopens in August. I look forward to caring for your loved one/s, how can I help?

"Helga Pangilinan was a wonderful nanny to my two children with special needs. When I was active duty in the Navy, she was flexible with my schedule and catered to my children as if they were her own. She was great about communicating any challenges my children were having (i.e. working through potty training) and did well to address their needs in my absence. I love that she made my children feel safe and comfortable like family. I would highly recommend her, especially if you’re seeking someone you can truly trust."

"Michelle was wonderful with my children, who started with her at 12 weeks old and 3 years old. She is kind, nurturing, responsible, emotionally mature, and educated in child development and attachment. Both of my children thrived in her care. She have them lots of creative play time, outside time, helped my little one learn to sleep independently, and helped my toddler learn to identify, communicate and regulate her big toddler emotions better. They were happy and safe. Michelle is warm and attentive."

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in California

Nanny Lane helps you find a summer nanny in California to take care of your children while school is out.

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 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 California

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.
