Occasional Babysitter

Helpr • San Francisco, CA

3d • Onsite

About The Position

A lovely family in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood is seeking an occasional babysitter for their two children, ages 10 months and 4 years, for an immediate start. Backup Care is primarily for the baby while the older child is in preschool on weekday mornings (7am–11am), with optional afternoon shifts (2pm–8pm) and occasional date nights (6pm–10pm). The family can typically provide 1–2 weeks’ notice before care is needed. Dad will usually be home during care hours. The family also has a small friendly dog in the home who will bark at new people; no pet care is required. Candidates should be comfortable carrying the baby up and down stairs, as the family lives on the third floor. Those applying do not need to be available for all of the family’s requests, but should understand there are no guaranteed hours for this position. There may be an opportunity for a more consistent schedule in the future for the right fit.
