About The Position

We are a warm, busy family with two young children (ages 3 and 3 months) and a friendly golden retriever, looking for a part-time house manager who can help lighten the load at home. One parent has a demanding career running a medical practice, while the other manages most of the day-to-day childcare and household flow, making consistency and reliability essential.
