Hyde Closet

A warm and active family on Davis Island in Tampa is seeking a skilled and experienced Part-Time Laundress to join their household approximately 15 hours per week across two days. The household consists of two adults, a teenager, and three dogs, and the family maintains a high standard of care across their wardrobe, fine garments, and household linens.

Fridays are a set day each week to ensure the household is fully prepared and refreshed heading into the weekend, with the second day falling on either Monday or Wednesday. Hours would ideally begin at 8:00am to align with the existing housekeeper’s schedule, though the family is open to some flexibility there. The family travels frequently and will look to their laundress for support with pre-trip packing and post-travel unpacking as well.

They are currently based on Davis Island and will be transitioning to their townhome in Hyde Park once renovations are complete, with an anticipated move in September 2026. The right candidate will be comfortable making that move alongside the family.
