About The Position

We are a warm and caring family of four with days that are filled with school schedules, activities, work commitments, and the everyday rhythm of family life. With both parents working demanding jobs and traveling regularly, we are looking for a trusted House Manager who can bring calm, consistency, and thoughtful support to our home. The ideal person will help make afternoons feel more organized, keep the household running smoothly, and bring a steady presence to the family’s busy routine. Our family values intention in the way we live: our home is organized, welcoming, and eco-conscious. We believe in doing things thoughtfully and well, and appreciate someone who shares that mindset. We also believe in raising our children to contribute to the household, take responsibility for their belongings, and develop the confidence to do things for themselves. Beyond the daily household routines, our family appreciates a person we can truly trust. Someone who notices what needs to be done, takes initiative, and brings an extra level of care to the home. Whether helping with after-school transportation, preparing snacks, managing errands, or taking care of the details that keep our busy household organized, the right person will become an important part of our daily rhythm. We are looking for someone who takes pride in creating a home that feels cared for, comfortable, and thoughtfully managed.
