A Stable Weekday Role Where Your Work Makes a Difference
Do you enjoy keeping a home organized, preparing meals, managing daily tasks, and making life easier for a busy family? We are seeking a dependable, proactive Household Manager to support us and our three children, ages 6, 7, and 9.
This is an opportunity to take ownership of the day-to-day details that help a household run smoothly. From organizing living spaces and preparing family dinners to handling errands and caring for our family dogs, you'll have a varied role where your initiative, organization, and practical skills make a meaningful difference.

- Competitive pay based on experience: Earn $40,000-$50,000 annually, depending on your qualifications and relevant background.
- Variety in your day: Combine home organization, meal preparation, errands, laundry, and pet care rather than doing the same task every day.
- Independence and ownership: Use your judgment to prioritize responsibilities, anticipate household needs, and keep daily routines on track.
- A direct working relationship: Work closely with us in a home where reliability, communication, and trust matter.
- An opportunity to make a tangible impact: Help create an organized, comfortable home environment that allows us to focus on our work and time together.
