A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Taylor and I LOVE kids! I am 22 and I have lots of experience with all age groups and love to provide help whenever I can with things such as laundry, errands, cleaning up, cooking, baking, etc. I live a pretty active lifestyle and love spending time outside when it is nice doing various activities! I love pets as well! I previously worked as a PCA worker for a family who had three children, one of which has Down Syndrome and enjoy working with the special needs population. I have been with the family for 10 years In which my job consisted of pick ups/ drop offs, overnights, day trip help, vacation help, errands, laundry, holiday help (wrapping, baking, writing letters from Santa, being the Easter bunny, etc) meal prep (very familiar with gluten and lactose free diets and allergies) homework help, appointment scheduling, bedtime help. I am just in Maine until the end of August when I move back to VT. My availability is Sunday-Wednesday anytime of the day!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Laci!
I am a full-time student at SMCC in South Portland Maine earning my degree in Radiology.
I'm looking to nanny part time, as of right now I have class until 11. But when summer comes, I would love a full-time position.
I love to go outside and be active. I am also a member of the women's college basketball team at SMCC, so I understand just how important it is to be active and have fun!
I am 19 years old, I'm also from Vermont. I have been babysitting and nannying for a while now as I use to nanny 4-year-old twin boys all summer, they are now 6! Also, before that I watched two families together. There were two sets of siblings, twin 9 years old boys and an 8-year-old girl with a 9-year-old brother! I watched all four of them every day in summer!
I love kids and enjoy watching them learn and experience new things as their mind grows. I would love to bring the kids to the beach and have lots of time outdoors. Also able to do house day to day chores.

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Portland, ME

Nanny Lane helps you find a summer nanny in Portland, ME 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 Portland, ME

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.
