A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Makayla McMillan, I’m 18 years old and I’ve been working with young children, specifically those with disabilities, since 2017. I have been a daycare teacher assistant, managing customer service operations with a focus on empathy and efficiency, and I have collaborated in multidisciplinary teams to deliver personalized care plans. Even before that I would babysit my neighbors’ children as young as one year old. I’m looking for a challenge; I want to be a bridge between parents and their children. During development stages in childhood, children struggle with their emotions and may not know the right way to communicate effectively. My goal is to put those actions into words and help children learn to express themselves in a positive way. I will be going to college in the fall, specifically a week before August 21, but I will be available until then.

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Highland, IL

Nanny Lane helps you find a summer nanny in Highland, IL to take care of your children while school is out.

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 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 Highland, IL

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.
