A little bit about me

Hi! I'm an undergraduate student majoring in kinesiology (exercise science) hoping to go into pediatric sports medicine eventually! I love working with kids and have around 8 years experience, including work with infants and children with special needs. I'd love to set up a time to meet with you and the kids before hand to make sure everything is a good match :) I'm currently looking for a full-time or part-time nanny position over the summer (June-August)!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Emily Pfeiffer and I am currently a fifth-year senior at Purdue University. I got married this past August to my amazing husband, whose name is Luke (my maiden name is Bretscher). We are both graduating in May and will be moving to Charlotte, NC in August, but I will be in West Lafayette until then. I recently finished up with my diving career at Purdue, so I have a lot more time on my hands and I am looking to find work for the rest of the school year and the summer! I am currently only in one class and my schedule is pretty flexible.

A little bit about me: I grew up in Knoxville, TN and I am 1 of 5 kids. I love working with kiddos! I have done babysitting every so often since I was in high school and I have worked at the nursery in my church the past few years. I am planning to get CPR/First Aid certified as soon as I can! I am vaccinated but have not gotten the booster yet, but I am more than happy to do so!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Kristin, I am 23 years old and currently living and working in Indiana as a dental hygienist. I love children- throughout the last 10+ years I've worked as a babysitter for kids ages 18 months to 12 years old. I have also been a violin teacher for the last 8 years, teaching kids ages 5 to 13. Recently, I got diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome, and need to take a break from my career to rest my hand. I absolutely love children, and it would be a dream to nanny for a short period before I move on to hopefully become a wife and mother of my own someday. I was homeschooled in elementary school so I know the basics of meal prepping, picking up around the house etc and would be more than willing to help out as needed. I’m fun loving and adventurous- I love animals, playing violin and piano, baking, staying active, and reading my Bible. I would love to find a family that’s a good fit for me and vice versa, to help them raise happy, healthy kiddos!

How to Hire a Short-Term Nanny in West Lafayette, IN

Nanny Lane helps you find a short-term nanny in West Lafayette, IN 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 West Lafayette, IN

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.
