The Secret to Securing a Summer Nanny Job for Next Year

The best way to make sure you’re called back to work as a summer nanny next year is to fully impress the kids. Treats and bribery might work for a little while, but by planning a big “event” during the summer months, the kids will never forget you. For example, why not plan a “Christmas in the Summer” theme? Summer camps do things like that all the time. Something like that can cost as much or as little as you want it to. Spend some time doing arts and crafts with the kids and decorate an outdoor tree with paper decorations. Have the kids spend weeks secretively making presents to give the other members of their families. That theme alone could take the entire summer to pull off. In the meantime, the kids will have memories they’ll never forget, the summer will pass by in a flash, and the kids will be begging their parents to hire you back next year! Summer nannies are like the “fun police”. It’s up to the summer nanny to come up with really cool, fun ideas that the kids will never forget. It could be lots of little things (like fun outdoor games) or one big themed event to take place sometime during the summer. Whatever you decide to do, make sure to clear it with the parents first.
