The role in one picture Our family works hard, and the center of our life is a calm, connected evening together. Your job is to create the conditions for that evening: by the time we sit down to dinner at 5:30, the house is reset, tomorrow is prepped, the kids are settled and content, and nothing is hanging over the night. You're the person who makes home feel handled — organized, warm, and running on rhythm. This is a motherly, take-care-of-business role. If you light up at the idea of being the steady hands behind a well-run home — and kids genuinely love being around you — keep reading. A typical day

• Arrive at our house at 1pm and work through the household list at the house
• 2:45pm — pick the kids up from school
• Bring them home for a snack and an activity you lead
• By 5:00 — activity finished and fully put away; kids settled into quiet play or drawing, calm music on, home reset
• ~5:15
• — hand off a peaceful house and head out What you'll own
• Kids' afternoons: pickup, snacks, an engaging activity, warm and structured time. You hold clear boundaries, you're attuned to their feelings, and you keep the afternoon fun without chaos. (You are not responsible for their education or development — just great, grounded care.)

• Meals:

  dinner prepped for the evening; next-day breakfasts and lunches made and in the fridge

• Laundry:

  washed, folded, put away

• House:

  rotating cleaning schedule (different zones on different days); dishes and kitchen stayed on top of; fridge kept organized and cleared of old food

• Vendors:

  fully closed-loop — you book them, meet them at the house, verify the work (with photos)
• The car: weekly clean-out and restock

• Family Calendar:

  you manage the family calendar including birthday party RSVPs, school events, extracurricular activities enrollment etc — making sure nothing falls through the cracks and everyone is in the right place at the right time

• Projects:

  you notice what needs attention (the linen closet, the garage shelf) and propose it — "I noticed X and Y; what matters most to you?" — then make it happen Who you are
• Organized as a way of caring, not coping. You find genuine satisfaction in order, rhythm, and a followed process — structure is your happy place, not your stress response.
• Proactive. You see what needs doing before it's asked, close loops completely, and never leave things 90% done.
• Emotionally attuned. You read a room and read a child. You bring warmth and steadiness in the same moment.
• Great with kids — and kids are great with you. They'll adore you, and they'll also know where the lines are. Requirements
• Extensive childcare experience (professional, or deep family experience raising/caring for children)
• Some education or training in child development, emotional attunement, or attachment (formal or self-driven — tell us about it)
• Excellent driver with a clean record and reliable vehicle
• References we can call
• Comfortable with a family that values a coherent, intentional home Schedule & pay
• Monday-Friday, approximately 1:00-5:30pm (~20-22 hours/week)
• Competitive hourly rate, in line with professional household-management market rates $25
• 30 / hr
• Growth hours available for the right person: occasional evening coverage for date nights, morning school-run coverage during travel weeks, and school-break coverage — we'd love someone interested in growing into more over time, and we'll design this together To apply Send a short note about yourself — who you are, your experience with kids and households, and what a well-run home means to you — along with references to [CONTACT].
