Summer Nanny?

I work part-time and am looking to hire a nanny to cover the summer months.  I figure my six year old is not going to want to return to daycare and I can withdraw my younger son (who will be two) for the summer while paying a small holding fee.

I plan to enroll the six year old in a few weeks of camp so that he can have some structured, enriching experiences, but mostly, I'd like him to experience a bit of the "lazy summer" I have such fond memories -- sleeping in, riding bikes, going to the pool.

Ideally, I would love to hire part-time (three days a week).  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to hire a sitter?

  1. I've known a number of people who have emailed Sorority Presidents at OSU and asked for referrals of members who are education/child development majors and looking for local summer work. You could probably get a list of the presidents through Student Activities.

  2. That's a great idea, another that I know has worked for a couple of my friends is to run a classified ad in OSU's student newspaper just go to www.thelantern.com
