About Our Family

We're a dynamic household of six in the Mount Baker neighborhood near the lake. Both parents work full-time in demanding roles, and our four children (ages 11, 9, 5 & 4) keep life energetic, fun, and wonderfully active. We also share our home with three beloved pets: an elderly dog and two cats. Family is incredibly important to us and we truly value our quality time together in the evenings and on the weekends.

Our home runs on a blend of established systems and flexibility. We have an au pair who manages morning and afternoon child-related responsibilities, as well as a housekeeping service that comes twice a month to handle deeper cleaning tasks. We've recently taken on more professional responsibilities, which means we need someone who can truly own the household side of things. We're looking for someone who can take the weight of daily household management off our plates so we can be fully present with our kids.

Our household is warm and respectful, and we appreciate kindness and a calm presence. We're looking for someone who enjoys creating order behind the scenes and takes pride in making everyday life easier for others. The right person is interested in building a long-term relationship with our family and will help ensure that the countless small tasks that keep a home running don't fall through the cracks. Our goal is to spend less time managing logistics and more time being present for our family. We're seeking a trusted partner who can provide that support by helping our household operate smoothly, efficiently and proactively.

Who You Are / What We're Looking For

You're proactive, professional, and pleasant. You're the kind of person who sees what needs to be done and does it without needing much direction. You're comfortable working independently in a home and are excited to own household systems, maintaining what's working and creating new solutions where needed.

We value clear, direct communication and appreciate someone who isn't afraid to ask questions, provide updates, or bring ideas to our attention. You're organized, flexible, and find satisfaction in keeping a home running smoothly. You understand how to maintain a friendly presence while maintaining professional boundaries. You're comfortable working in a busy family home and are flexible with shifting needs or priorities.

Most importantly, you genuinely enjoy helping busy families thrive. You take pride in anticipating needs, creating calm, and handling details before they become problems. Whether you're managing household inventory, organizing spaces, or tackling an ever-evolving to-do list, you find satisfaction in knowing your work makes a meaningful difference in the daily lives of the people you support.
