About the Family: We are a close, thoughtful family of five living in Lake Oswego, Oregon, in a 2700 SF home with three young children (ages 5, 3, and 1.5) and two working parents. One parent is an entrepreneur running a nearby brick-and-mortar business. The other parent supercommutes to the Bay Area Tuesday morning through Thursday night, and works from home on Monday and Friday. Our three children attend a nearby Montessori school and bring diverse energy, ages, and developmental needs into our home.

We manage two dietary restrictions in our home: one child has a peanut allergy (we keep peanuts away from her and are mindful during food preparation), and one parent is gluten intolerant. We also regularly host a visiting grandparent who comes for 6-week stretches at a time, adding another loving layer to our family dynamic.

We value order, systems, and thoughtful rhythms that create a calm, organized home where everyone can thrive. Tuesday through Thursday are our most demanding days, and we appreciate support that helps our home feel grounded and well cared for during that time.

Who You Are: We are looking for someone who is organized, proactive, and detail-oriented-someone who takes pride in creating systems that make household life flow smoothly. You notice what needs to be done before being asked, take ownership of responsibilities, and follow through independently. You thrive in an environment where you are empowered to make decisions and suggest improvements. You have a growth mindset, good judgment, and genuinely enjoy working within established systems while also contributing fresh ideas.

Most importantly, you understand that your role plays a meaningful part in helping our family thrive by keeping our home running smoothly, our children well-fed and clothed, and our daily operations organized and calm.

• Track and restock pantry, fridge, toiletries, household supplies
• Create and manage running household supply lists
• Coordinate and manage household orders (Amazon, Costco, Target, etc.)
