A little bit about me

Hi everyone! My name is Grace and I’m a rising senior at Miami University. I’ll be home from mid-May through August 20th, and I’m looking for a full-time nanny position for the summer!
I have a lot of experience working with children, especially infants and young kids. I’ve been a full-time nanny for a family with a baby and a toddler, so I’m very comfortable with feeding, naps, routines, playtime, and keeping everything organized and running smoothly. I also help out with things like laundry, meals for the kids, and anything else to make your life easier!
I’m very reliable, patient, and genuinely love working with kids. I also have very strong references from families I’ve worked with who would be happy to speak about my experience and work ethic.

Please feel free to message me if you or someone you know is looking 😊

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in New Canaan, CT

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 New Canaan, CT

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.
