Default knock on the doors of the establishments...

Almost all of the service businesses in the area hire summer help. 3 years ago, when my daughter wanted to have a summer job at the lake, she put on a nice outfit and went door-to-door with her resume to all of the restaurants she was interested in working at. She did this in late April/early May, before most of the college kids were looking, and way before the HS kids were looking. She did get rejected at a number of places because she had no waitress experience, but she ultimately landed a job. She worked hard, was great with customers, and the place has had her back each summer since.

So, if your friend is interested in waitressing for the summer, start the search early, (April), and simply go to each place in person. As far as nannying or being a yoga instructor for the summer, I wouldn't know.

Good luck!
