Family Assistant / House Manager

Sage Haus•Dublin, CA

71d•Onsite

About The Position

We’re an active, social family of four with a full and ever-changing rhythm of work, school, activities, travel, and everyday life. Both parents work demanding full-time roles, so we’re looking for someone who can help create more ease and breathing room in our home. Our goal is simple: to spend less time managing the details of daily life and more time enjoying the moments that matter. We want our home to feel like a place where everyone can recharge, reconnect, and feel cared for. Our two teenage daughters are independent, curious, and finding their own paths, and we value someone who understands that this stage of life is about connection, trust, and respect. We’re looking for a reliable partner who can help maintain the systems that keep our home running smoothly and anticipate needs before they become stressors so our family can be more present with one another.
