A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Kaitlyn and I am 19. I am looking for a nanny job over the summer because I loved working as a nanny last summer. I currently attend University of Iowa and I am studying psychology. I love spedning time outdoors whether that means going to the pool, riding bikes, or even something as simple as a walk. During high school I was on dance team and I was also involved in Best Buddies, CORE Club, and worked with kids with special needs during pe. I make a great nanny because I am very patient with kids, I love playing and fueling their creative side, and my number one priority is the kids safety. I am also willing to do some house work if you are busy with work and need some things to be cleaned up!

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 Urbandale, IA
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.
