Moms living in San Francisco come in all shapes and sizes but raising kids here does give us a few things in common. Here are 11 signs you’re a San Francisco Mom.
- You’ve been asked 7,000 times if your kid is in swim class yet.
- You’ve considered buying a tether to connect yourself to your stroller when walking down steep hills.
- You put your name on daycare waiting lists when your baby was still a fetus.
- You’ve attended workshops just to figure out how to get your kids into school.
- You are aware that feeder schools to elite colleges start with preschool.
- You know that farmers’ markets and food trucks are a way of life.
- You couldn’t live without same-day delivery services.
- You’re a pro at putting car seats into Ubers.
- You get frustrated watching House Hunters because these families buy McMansions for less than a down payment on a fixer upper here.
- Your pantry is stocked from the following sources: 40% Trader Joes, 25% Local markets, 25% Amazon Fresh and/or Instacart, 9% Safeway and 1% your urban garden.
- You feel justified in wearing yoga pants because you actually do yoga (at least sometimes).
