About Our Family:

We're a busy family of three (soon to be four) who recently relocated back to Austin after several years in San Francisco. With a 1.5-year-old son and a baby due in April, we're in an exciting (and full!) season of life as we settle into our new home and routines.

Both of us have demanding careers, so our days move quickly and require focus. At home, we value organization, efficiency, and a calm, well-run environment that allows us to be fully present with each other.

Without nearby family support, we're intentionally building our own village. We're looking for a trusted, capable partner who can help manage the day-to-day rhythm of our homeoverseeing meal prep, maintaining organization, and bringing structure and steadiness to our weekly routines. Our goal is simple: a home that feels calm, cared for, and supportive of this meaningful stage of family life.

Who We're Looking For

Our ideal candidate is proactive, detail-oriented, and highly organized. You're someone who naturally takes ownership, anticipates needs, and keeps things running smoothly without requiring constant direction.

You're calm, adaptable, and comfortable stepping into a dynamic household with young children. From planning and preparing healthy meals, to keeping shared spaces organized, to occasionally supporting with light childcare, you're confident in managing a variety of responsibilities with efficiency and care.

Professional yet warm, you integrate seamlessly into a friendly family environment while maintaining clear boundaries and discretion. Experience with toddlers is important, but equally valuable is your steady presence, sound judgment, and ability to create order in a busy home.

If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-standard household and genuinely enjoy building systems that make life easier for others, we'd love to connect.

Key Responsibilities:

This role focuses on keeping the household running smoothly day to day, with a few core priorities that anchor the work.
