A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Lauren, I am 19 years old, and I live in Portland, Maine. I have been babysitting for 4 years throughout high school and am looking for a summer nanny position. I have always loved volunteering and mentoring kids. In high school, I was involved in after-school sports clubs and an in-school reading club, where a few of my peers and I would go and read for 30 minutes to elementary school kids. I have experience in house cleaning as well as meal prepping.

A little bit about me
My name is Alison, and I am a senior at Cape High School. I will graduate in June and attend University this fall. In the meantime, however, I am hoping to connect with a few families to pick up some babysitting hours this spring and summer, whether that is consistent help after school or for a spontaneous night out. I am also open to full time nannying gig.
I've been babysitting for over five years now, and I love kids! I have experience working with up to four children, including infants and toddlers. Additionally, I am Red Cross certified and trained in CPR. I have my license and a reliable car. I would be happy to provide references as well if that would be helpful.
When I'm not babysitting, I enjoy playing sports, hanging out with my friends and listening to music. I also work with a number of community organizations and non-profits. I love spending time outdoors, whether it's hiking or being at the beach.

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.
