About Our Family

We’re a busy, loving family who truly values the time we spend together. With both parents working in the medical field, our days can sometimes feel quite busy and demanding. Our home is our haven, and we’re looking for someone who can help bring more organization, rhythm, and support to our day-to-day routine. A key part of this role will be ownership of all laundry, tidying up, and kitchen management, including ensuring the kitchen is always ready for meal prep and kept clean. In addition, we’re looking for someone who can provide “ready-to-cook” meal prep, making sure all ingredients are prepped and ready for us to cook fresh dinners efficiently.

Our blended family includes a 5-year-old, two older kids (ages 10 & 14) who are with us part-time, and a college-aged niece who is a cherished part of our family. We’re seeking someone who feels like a natural fit—someone we can count on to keep everything running smoothly, from laundry and meal prep to managing household tasks. Our goal is to spend less time on logistics and more time enjoying each other’s company, and we’re excited to find a partner who can help us achieve just that.

Who You Are / What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who is kind, proactive, and reliable, and enjoys being hands-on and taking the initiative. You’re the type of person who can see what needs to be done and does it without needing to be asked, always staying one step ahead in keeping things organized and running smoothly. You take pride in creating a calm, welcoming home environment, whether it’s through consistent and detail-oriented meal prep, light tidying, laundry, or managing household tasks. Your meal prep ensures everything is organized, fresh, and ready to go, removing the stress and decision-making from our busy days. You value privacy, efficiency, and clear communication, and you know how to balance a keen eye for detail with the bigger picture. Most importantly, we’re excited to find someone who wants to make our lives a little easier, so we can spend more time doing what we love—being together as a family.
