Fragrance-free About Our Family We're a calm, laid-back family navigating a full and exciting season of life. With a curious, energetic toddler and a new baby on the way, our days are full of movement. We both work asynchronous schedules, often from home, which means things can easily pile up or get pushed off. We're looking for steady support to help our household run smoothly. We're flexible and appreciate someone who can meet us where we are - we will do the same for you. What matters most to us is finding someone who's proactive, kind, and comfortable rolling with our rhythm. We want our evenings to feel calmer and more connected, and that starts with having the right support in the first part of our day. We don't have family nearby, so the right person will truly add to our village. We're looking for someone who genuinely loves children and brings reliability and care to every shift. We value a steady environment, and we're looking for someone who brings that same energy through the door. Who You Are / What We're Looking For You have a grounded presence, but also take initiative. You're warm and kind, especially with little ones, but you understand the professional nature of this role. You're self-directed, flexible, and detail-oriented. You communicate clearly, manage your time well, and approach each day with a proactive mindset. You take pride in leaving things better than you found them. You are comfortable with each day looking different: some days, you'll be focused more on childcare, while other days you'll be meal prepping, helping with laundry, or tackling an organizational project. You believe no task is too big or too small and are creative, organized, and dependable. As time passes, you may even preempt some needs, suggest new systems, or pave a better way forward in our home. Most of all, we are looking for someone we can genuinely trust and rely on for the long term — someone who becomes a consistent, valued part of how our household runs and who takes pride in the role they play in our family's day-to-day life. We are hoping to find someone who is highly adaptable and will grow with our family as our needs evolve.
