A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Meron Mesfin and I’m a James Madison University student studying health sciences to become a pediatric dentist and currently work as a children’s pottery teacher during the week. I have my CPR and First Aid certifications.
I’m looking for recurring babysitting or part-time nanny jobs on weekends and possibly some weekday evenings (after 5 PM). I’m calm, patient, and dependable, and I genuinely love spending time with kids, whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, or winding down with books and bedtime routines.
I’m also a huge animal lover, so if you have pets i’m happy to help out with them too. I enjoy being outdoors, doing fun activities, or just creating a joyful, safe environment where kids feel heard, happy, and at ease.
I’m especially hoping to find a family I can support regularly throughout the summer and beyond.
Feel free to message me if you’re interested, I’d be happy to share my contact info and chat more!

A little bit about me
I’m currently studying psychology with the goal of becoming a therapist one day. I have two years of experience as a nanny, caring for a bright and energetic 3-year-old. I’m passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children, and their well-being and happiness are always my top priorities. I am currently in college so my schedule may vary. I am available to be a full-time nanny from May 13th - August 22nd. However I am always open to figure out what works best for the both of us, once I have to go back to being part time again.

How to Hire a Summer Nanny in Arlington, VA
Nanny Lane helps you find a summer nanny in Arlington, VA 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 Arlington, VA
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.
