A reliable and responsible individual who can prioritize tasks effectively and maintain open communication with the family.

A long-term mindset, as we hope for our nanny to grow with our family and transition between childcare and family assistant duties as our children mature.
To ensure the success of our nanny position, we have established the following requirements:
Strong English communication skills: Effective communication is essential for maintaining a clear and open dialogue with our family and children.
Strong references from past employers: We value the insights and feedback from previous employers to assess a candidate's reliability, professionalism, and ability to provide exceptional care.
Local candidates in the SF Bay Area only: As this is not a live-in position and we do not offer relocation assistance, we are specifically seeking candidates who are already residing in the SF Bay Area.
Willingness to pass two background checks: The safety and security of our children are paramount. Therefore, candidates must be willing to undergo both Trustline and Nanny Verify background checks.
U.S. Citizen / Work Authorization: Candidates must possess valid U.S. citizenship or work authorization to ensure compliance with legal requirements.
