My current nanny family will not need my services over the summer so I am in search of a full-time nannying position from July-September. I am available to work M-F from 7am-5pm. I am open to helping with light housekeeping, laundry, meal prep, pets, and driving around. My starting rate is $25/hr (rate may go up slightly depending on level of additional needs).
My references, experience, certifications, and personal skills prove that I am a reliable candidate who you can trust with your kids, pets, and household! :)

A little bit about me
My approach with kids is very Reggio-Emilia inspired. I'm here to support and nurture their autonomy and teach them to feel empowered in their relationships with other people and themselves. I had the honor and privilege of having many kids at the preschool call me their favorite teacher over the years, and one singular moment of glory where a child fully accidentally called me Ms. Frizzle, a peak experience I don't think I'll ever surpass. :) I'm free right now on Thursday afternoons and all Friday, and have some flexibility earlier in the week as well.

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