A little bit about us…

We're a growing family in the Outer Sunset with an 11-year-old boy who's with us half the time and a baby on the way.

We're getting an early start interviewing for a nanny to help us out once our baby's born around Jan. 10.

I'll have a 20-week leave from work, but this is my first child and my partner travels a lot for work, so we could use help from someone who can work with a first-time mom as well as providing an occasional ride for an 11-year-old boy to get to things like football practice if his dad's out of town or otherwise unavailable.

We're thinking a part-time nanny would suffice, but we might not know until the baby's here what days / times work best.

It would be great to start meeting people sooner, rather than later, though, just to see if they can ease into the role / acquaint themselves with our family by helping out with our 11-year-old's transportation needs.

She also takes him to music class and art class. Additionally, she sleep trained and potty trained my son. She will be available in July. Please dm me if interested.
