I have the most experience with preschool aged kids though I also have babysitting experience with kids of all ages as well as after school program experience with kids of all ages. Looking forward to finding the perfect fit for this summer!

A little bit about me
Hi! I'm Clementine and I go to Montana State University, but have family in Seattle and come home often. I love kids and have been working with them for 4+ years, through nannying agencies, babysitting, and daycare programs. I love the outdoors and spend much of my time outside. I believe children should experience the outdoors often and am always eager to go on a walk to look at flowers! I aim to provide your child with the guidance, safety, and support they need to grow.
I am only looking for a temporary position for the summer, preferably from mid-May to early-August. I would love to work Monday-Thursday.

Nanny Amy
"Amy made a natural connection quickly with our 4 year old son and has been our go-to babysitter for 1 year and a half now. She engages with him and keeps him well entertained. He is not quick to trust new people, so we were ready for her to be challenged. She handled him very well. She is trustworthy and takes her job seriously. We recommend her to everyone!"
- Sonya
Nanny Amy
"I am still working with Amy but I wanted to let everyone know how highly I would recommend her. She has done overnights with my 3 year old special needs son, and then took care of my one week old baby over multiple overnights when I had to unexpectedly go back to the hospital - she handled everything perfectly and is the only one I trust with kids now!"

Nanny Alexis

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