I am a provider from CA and what everyone here is telling you is VERY helpful.

Your situation would work if it was YOU that was watching only one child, but it is not. As others have stated, the situation that you are trying to create is actual illegal, private or not.

I know that everyone on here means well to tell you these things to be of help and make certain you avoid a huge problem later.

If money is tight, maybe look into a small home daycare. Daycare is much cheaper than hiring a nanny. Although I do understand the expectation differences.

best of luck to you, I am not too far from you, I am also in the bay area....
