Job Description

Our client in Cow Hollow, San Francisco is looking to hire a Full-Time Nanny / Light Housekeeper (Live-In or Live-Out).  They have a 22 month old and another child on the way.

Start Date: May (flexible)

Compensation: $45 – $50/hour Depending on experience

Job Details / Schedule :

• 40 hrs/week guaranteed…Monday – Friday with flexibility for weekend work when needed

• Flexibility for 50+ hrs depending on candidate and responsibilities

• Some evening/weekend shifts — e.g., occasional date nights, family dinners, or a few hours on a weekend day (can decide jointly)

• Some travel required (mostly domestic weekend trips; we do ~1 international trip/year, which isn’t required)

Family:

• Toddler Girl (22 months) + newborn Boy arriving in June

• Baby nurse June–August; newborn support begins in September

• Toddler starts preschool 2x/week (mornings) in September, expanding to 5x/week (mornings) next year

What This Role Looks Like

This is a dynamic, evolving position that supports our home and family wherever it’s needed most — whether that’s focused time with our daughter, helping with the baby (starting in September), or assisting around the house during quieter moments.

We’ll build a clear weekly structure together, and that routine will evolve as the kids’ needs change. The goal isn’t to do everything every day — it’s to be adaptable, helpful, and comfortable teaming up depending on what the day looks like.

For example: one morning, mom might be with the toddler and need support with the baby — or vice versa, she might be with baby and need help picking up toddler from school or taking her to a park. Other times, if both kids are with the parents or grandparents, we’d value help around the house like tidying, prepping meals, or resetting the space.

We’re also looking for someone who’s open to occasional schedule shifts — like covering an evening if we have a work dinner, or helping on a weekend morning if we agree that’s the best time to reset the house or get outside with the toddler.

We value structure, collaboration, and dependability — and are looking for someone who can also go with the flow when needed, without stress or fuss.

Examples of Day-to-Day Tasks (Varies by Day):

• Take toddler to classes (e.g. gymnastics), the park, or neighborhood outings (we typically go out AM and PM)
• Engage toddler at home — reading books, creative play, arts & crafts, etc.
• Feed toddler meals (e.g. lunch); prepare simple, healthy food if needed
• Help with newborn care starting in September (~3 months old: naps, bottles, diapering, soothing)
• Light housekeeping: dishes, tidying, organizing, baby laundry, vacuuming
• Keep common areas clean and organized (weekly cleaners handle deep cleaning)
• Be an extension of mom — collaborative, helpful, tuned in to what’s needed
• Occasional travel with family for weekend trips; evening or weekend help as needed

Ideal Candidate:

• Warm, energetic, and genuinely loves working with kids

• Smart, organized, and quick to learn new routines

• Humble, proactive, and takes initiative naturally

• Strong work ethic — happy to pitch in wherever needed and grow with the role

• Clean and tidy by nature, with an eye for keeping things in order

• Comfortable working independently or alongside parents

• Can drive (preferred; car can be provided) or confidently use public transit

• Flexible with scheduling — and open to adjusting hours when needed
