Between school, activities, meals, running two small businesses, and managing a household — we’re looking for someone who can bring calm, capable support and help simplify the day-to-day. Our schedule can shift, and we need consistent help to keep things running smoothly. One parent travels extensively for work and may be away for extended periods at a time. The second parent operates a locally based non-profit that requires irregular hours. Having reliable support on the home front is especially valuable. Nearby family are actively involved in our lives and help bring a sense of community to our home.

Being attentive to household routines, details, and food-related safety is an important part of supporting our family well.
