We are a professional couple based in Menlo Park with a friendly one-year-old mini Bernedoodle and a beautiful cat. Both of us work full-time, one in a hybrid office schedule, the other primarily from home. We are seeking a proactive, trustworthy, and detail-oriented House Manager to help keep our home running smoothly.

We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys creating order, loves to cook, and finds satisfaction in supporting a busy household with calm, consistent care. This is a wonderful opportunity for someone who takes pride in their work, values clear communication, and thrives in a supportive and respectful environment.

You're calm, organized, and quietly confident. You take initiative, anticipate needs, and love creating systems that make daily life easier. You're also a strong cook-comfortable preparing paleo-inspired, gluten-free, and dairy-free meals, and able to plan, shop for, and prepare 2-3 healthy dinners each week with extra portions for later.

You're the kind of person who notices when supplies are low, enjoys managing household logistics, and communicates clearly when something needs attention. You appreciate a tidy, well-run home and take pride in bringing structure and ease to others' lives.
