We are a warm and thoughtful family with one child, currently 9 months old, who will be starting daycare in mid-August when maternity leave ends. One parent works long hours outside the home and travels frequently, while the other will transition to a hybrid work schedule after returning in August.

As our family grows and changes, we're seeking support to help manage the day-to-day responsibilities of the householdespecially as our child transitions to daycare. We want to create more space for quality family time and reduce the mental load of daily tasks. Our ideal candidate will help by taking care of meal prep, laundry, household organization, and picking up our child from daycare several times a week, providing engaging care until we return home.

You take pride in maintaining a well-organized and smooth-running home while understanding the balance between being hands-on and giving space when needed.

You're flexible and able to seamlessly transition between household management and childcare, whether it's staying on top of household tasks like meal prep and laundry or picking up our child from daycare and providing engaging care until we return home. Your ability to juggle both the practical and emotional aspects of the role, while maintaining a calm and organized environment, will make you an essential part of our family.
