The Kenin Family

& Camelia Herrera

Mission District, San Francisco$40/hr | 1 kid

Hi there!

We are very sadly losing our nanny share family and need to find a new family on or before [phone number hidden]

Create an account to contact Alexandra!

. We are looking for a family to share with full time (M-F, 8-6).

Came is a fantastic nanny and we've been working with her for >1 year. She takes the kids on trips every day to the park, storytime, museums, music class, and more. She makes food for the kiddos, does light housework, and bathes the babes too. She will pick up the baby from the non-hosting home and drive him/her to the hosting home.

Her rate is for 2 people, so it would be $20 each.

We live in Mission Dolores and can host or are happy to be hosted at your place. Happy to share more!

The Bach-Miller Family

& Yessica Avila Oliveros

South Beach, San Francisco$14/hr | 1 kid

Hi! We have a very active and loving 14 mo son named Bo who is looking for a new share buddy! Our nanny Yessica has been caring for him since he was 4.5 mo. She is incredible! Full of love and energy. Truly treats our son as if he were her own. She models a healthy lifestyle and helped Bo transition seamlessly to solid foods. He has moved through crawling, walking and now running under her care. She has lots of ideas for indoor and outdoor activities during COVID that have kept him happy and learning throughout. And in normal times, loves taking him to story time, the Children’s museum, parks and playgrounds.

Yessica speaks primarily Spanish and is CPR certified. She is currently hosting at her apartment in SoMa. We are looking for our new family to host full-time or for Yessica to continue hosting. Hours are currently M-F 8:15-5:30. We are open to a baby or a toddler up to 18 months. Looking to start in September but can potentially be flexible to start earlier. We are located in South Beach, so are open to anything in the SoMa, South Beach, Mission Bay, FiDi or nearby areas.

The Wurman Family

& Gloria Araricio

Potrero Hill, San Francisco$17.50/hr | 2 kids

Greetings! We are seeking a new family to join our Mon-Thrus nanny-share in Potrero Hill. Our nanny Gloria has been caring for children for over a decade, is throughly engaged in the Mission Bay and Potrero Hill communities and has a well established reputation as a loving nanny. She puts an incredible amount of effort into ensuring the kids get lots of fresh air and engaging activities every day. She cooks nutritious food and bathes them daily (if you desire).

In response to Covid, Gloria spends much of the day taking the children on outdoor activities like exploring local neighborhoods and playing in our driveway and garden. She takes Lyft to and from her home and exercises all the best practices to maintain the heath of her family and ours (wears a mask outdoors, uses hand sanitizer hourly, maintains social distance etc.)

Gloria is mostly Spanish speaking but understands English and has two wonderful daughters who can help translate for her (they also come and help when not in school). We are also happy to help moderate.

Our daughter Noa is 2.5 years old and is very kind and easygoing (thanks in part to Gloria!). We are expecting another baby in late Sept, so we will be working with Gloria for several more years. We are open to hosting a child of any age as Gloria is skilled enough to manage all their needs and milestones. The best fit would be a family who values engaging playtime and community exploration for their child. If you are interested please get in touch!

The Gunderson Family

& Stefany Leui

San Francisco$18/hr | 1 kid

Hey there! We have an amazing little boy (8 months) and an equally awesome nanny (Stefany) and we are looking for a local family that wants to join a nanny share with us. Our baby boy, Brady, is sweet, active and loves to go outside - we would like to find him a friend who he can learn and play with. We would be happy to host at our apartment as it is already set up for a share with a big indoor play area, an awesome outdoor play area, and bedroom for each baby! Right now our hours are Monday through Friday 8-5:30 but the hours are flexible and so is Stefany. Stefany has done shares for the last 10 years and is a pro juggling two little ones, even making time to clean and cook while the babies nap. Hope we can connect!

Sarah was AMAZING with my little guy. He was about 1 month old when she started helping with babysitting, and she knew how to soothe him, and care for him with whatever he needed. I never worried once when he was with her! She was kind, gentle, and so sweet with both our son, and us! - Jasmine

Leslye A.

Any family would be lucky to have Leslye. She is caring, responsible and just fantastic with kids. Her kind and warm nature meant my daughter immediately connected with her.
