Host Family Pumpkin Patch – Oct 2015

We were blessed with a beautiful fall evening at the pumpkin patch and plenty of activities from hay rides to hay bale mazes. I have to say there’s nothing cuter than our little ones picking out pumpkins that are twice their size! Thanks to everyone that came out and shared in the fun!Oct HF 2Oct HF 3Oct HF 4OCt HF 5Oct HF 1OCt HF 6

Red Cross Pediatric Training – August 2015

After a full day of training, all the Au Pairs walked away informed and ready to handle any emergency situation! Our Red Cross Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED was well received as we had Au Pairs travel in from North and South of the city to join in the fun. It was really impressive watching the young ladies in action, we should feel confident that our kiddos are in good hands! Aug Training Aug Training2 Aug Training3 Aug Training4

SF Scavenger Hunt – July 2015

What we did not know was that it was going to be 90 degrees outside, but that did not slow down these girls! We had a wonderful time scouting out local landmarks and San Francisco favorites as we raced against the clock to complete as many challenges as possible on our scavenger hunt. From pics of sourdough bread to hiking to the top of Buena Vista Park, there was never a dull moment. July EventJuly Pic 2July Pic 3

Twilight Picnic – May 2015

We gathered together on a beautiful, chilly evening to enjoy Off the Grid Twilight in the Presidio. It was easy to stay warm with good company, good food, and live music! The location provides amazing views of the bay and plenty of food trucks to peruse. It’s always such a joy to connect with each other and welcome the new Au Pair arrivals into our cluster.picnic

Visiting Alcatraz – April 2015

On a beautiful Sunday afternoon in April our San Francisco Au Pair Cluster was delighted to join other Clusters from north and south of the city for a trip to Alcatraz. We were able to catch the last day of the Ai Weiwei exhibit, which was very inspiring! I think all the girls and counselors enjoyed the ferry trip across the bay and learning some of the history of the island.
