A little bit about us

My need is unique, yet flexible. I am a nurse working 12hr shifts and my 2 year-old is in daycare (nearby) during hours that do not coincide with my work schedule.

Only 1 day per week, I need a.m. care arriving at my home by 6:15a until 8:30a. Care would include feeding him, getting him dressed then dropoff at daycare as early as 7:30a but no later than 8:30a. Evening care consists of pickup from daycare by 4:45p, with care in my home until I arrive by 8:30p. Evening care includes feeding, bathing, entertaining as necessary, and putting him down for sleep.

I occasionally need only the evening care if I'm working as a break nurse for a shift.

There is an opportunity to work more hours if I stay over to help the PM shift (only if my sitter is open to staying later than 8:30p), and I also sometimes work weekend shifts in which the care is 8 to 12 hours depending on the type of shift that I work but will be 8hr shifts majority of the time.

Again, my schedule is unique, yet flexible, and made out 1 month in advance. I am looking for consistent, long-term care.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in San Francisco, CA

Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.

The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.

There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in San Francisco. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
