About Our Family We're a busy family with two young children, two teenagers, and we both own and operate our own businesses. Our home is active, welcoming, and full of life. We value kindness, reliability, open communication, and a positive attitude. We're a creative family who loves the arts, playing games, traveling and being outdoors. About the Role Our goal is simple: to find someone who helps our home feel calm, organized, and cared for so we can spend more quality time together as a family and less time managing the endless to-do list. This isn't a traditional housekeeping or nanny position. It's a unique role that blends household management, organization, errands, meal preparation, and after-school childcare. We already have a cleaning service, so we're not looking for someone to deep clean our home. Instead, we're looking for someone who enjoys creating order, notices what needs to be done without being asked, and takes pride in keeping a household running smoothly behind the scenes. We'd LOVE someone who... notices the kids need new shoes before we do texts "We're low on milk." rotates seasonal clothes keeps pantry organized remembers teacher appreciation week waters plants coordinates repair appointments returns Amazon packages tries new meal recipes they think we'll love
