BPN equivalent for SF?
For our last child, we found an amazing nanny share set up through BPN. We are now located in SF, and although BPN includes SF as an option in their nanny share listings, there are virtually none posted. Is there an equivalent to BPN for SF families? Does anyone have experience finding a nanny share in SF? Thanks in advance

Golden Gate Mothers Group. https://www.ggmg.org/ There's a membership fee, though it will be waived if you volunteer with them.
There is Golden Gate Mother's Group. It does charge a fee but it's relatively reasonable--there is also financial assistance if needed--plus membership does include various perks such as discounts at particular stores. Fair warning though that the discussion board can get political and heated....
We had great luck with NextDoor. There are lots of Nanny themed groups for various parts of the city.
We moved from SF to Oakland and I found out SF nanny share on Golden Gate Mother’s group. You have to pay for membership but its a great resource, they also formulate play groups and host many events.
Golden Gate Mothers Group and Main Street Mamas are the largest mothers’ groups in SF and would be great resources for nanny shares. The former has a $75 annual fee (though volunteering can waive the fee); latter is a very active Facebook group (so free). I’d recommend joining both of you can.
