About Our Family

We are a warm, close-knit household that values kindness, humor, and a calm, grounded approach to daily life. Our home includes a school-aged child and a young puppy, and while life here is full and active, we prioritize connection, stability, and creating a sense of ease in the home wherever possible. One parent works in academia, so the family schedule naturally shifts with the academic calendar and can be demanding during the school year.

We are looking for someone who can provide meaningful day-to-day support, with a strong focus on meal preparation and consistent care for both the child and the puppy. Cooking is a major priority - healthy, creative meals that align with a pescatarian and vegetarian household, CSA produce prep, and dependable weekday dinner support. Midday puppy care is also an essential part of the role, along with helping the home stay organized, calm, and running smoothly.

The ideal person is someone who brings steadiness, initiative, and warmth into the home. They are confident in their skills, comfortable working independently, and able to balance structure with flexibility. They take pride in creating order out of daily life logistics and understand the value of being a reliable, grounding presence in a busy household environment.

Who You Are / What We're Looking For

• A warm, grounded communicator who is direct, honest, and calm in both easy and challenging moments
• Experienced working with children and genuinely comfortable around kids who may need extra patience, creativity, and consistency. Bonus points if you know your way around video games (Mario and Minecraft go a long way here).
• Culinarily confident - someone who can cook healthy, creative pescatarian and vegetarian meals.
• Conscientious and organized, with a natural instinct to notice what needs attention and take care of it.
• Reliable, and professional in approach to household management work this role calls for someone who has done this before and takes it seriously.
• Flexible and adaptable with a shifting academic calendar and evolving household needs
• Collaborative in nature - you ask questions, communicate clearly, and respect household decision-making
• Comfortable with dogs and confident handling basic pet care routines
