A little bit about me
I have experience with newborns-18 years and love them all just the same! I just finished up an excellent summer camp season as head counselor/program director for Hart-to-Hart Farm and Education Center in Albion, Maine where I worked with children ages 4-16 . I have 2 months of fun summer camp programing fresh in my mind that I’d be happy share with your children! I’m back home with my parents now until the end of September.
I am looking for a family (or multiple families) to fill 30+ hours per week. I am flexible with times and I have my own transportation. Please let me know if you think we could be a good match! I am happy to work with children of any age, to help with light housework and cooking, and will be even happier if you have pets.

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