A little bit about me
My name is Kamryn and I am 18 years old! I just graduated from Johnston High school and will be attending DMACC this fall. I played basketball for 13 years, and this will be my first summer without summer ball so I will be available a lot. I love kids, and used to say I wanted to be a mom when I grew up. I am very responsible, caring, and fun!! I lifeguarded the past 2 summers so I am first aid certified, CPR certified, and trained in the heimlich maneuver. I got my pro start certification in school this year (which is a culinary certification) and am able to make some pretty good meals. I graduated with a 3.96 GPA and honors, so I could always help with work! I love music and dancing (I danced for 11 years) and did show choir in school. I am very honest reliable and friendly, and would love to get to know your kids and make lasting connections with them!

A little bit about me
Hi my name is Emily and I'm an experienced nanny in the Des Moines area with several years of experience. I'm looking for a long term part time position, but would be open to full time in the summers. I have experience with infants through middle school age and can provide my resume upon request. In previous roles I have supported children with online learning, planning engaging activities, and helping with daily routines and schedules. I also have experience working with children in foster care.
I am currently at Grand View University studying social work, and working with children and families is something I truly care about and love to do. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where kids can play, learn, and feel safe and confident. I enjoy being creative and planning arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, and helping make families lives easier.

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 Des Moines, IA
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.
