The Short Version
A warm, energetic Beverly Hills family (and our repeat client) is looking for a full-time Family Assistant who is equal parts trusted right hand and favorite camp counselor. This role has two sides that matter equally. On one hand, you are mom's go-to: the person she can delegate to and trust to get things done, from errands and groceries to organizing a closet. On the other hand, you are an active, hands-on presence for the kids, the kind of person who jumps out of the car to shoot hoops or grabs an after-school matcha and a laugh. They want a Tigger, not an Eeyore. If you love staying busy, being resourceful, and being genuinely involved, keep reading.

The Family
This is a kind, fun, close-knit family with two great kids, ages 11 and 15. There is a lot of love and humor in this house, and they treat the people who work with them with real warmth and respect. There is also a low-maintenance family dog who is happy with a yard, the occasional vet run, and being fed on time.

What You'll Do
Your days will be a genuine mix, which is part of the fun. Mornings start with a quick sync with mom to map out the plan, followed by school drop-off and getting the kids on their way.

A meaningful part of this role is being the person mom can hand things off to with confidence. You'll run errands like groceries and dry cleaning, manage shipments and returns, help with gifting and projects, keep things organized around the house (think closets and clearing out expired items in the medicine cabinet), and generally keep the day-to-day running smoothly. You'll partner closely with mom, sometimes taking her lead and sometimes simply asking, "What do you need today?" A curious, proactive mindset is everything here.

The other half of the role is active engagement with the kids. You'll be a true mentor and willing accomplice: playing basketball, getting outside, feeding snacks, and being a reliable, fun presence they look forward to seeing. There will be some weeknight or weekend babysitting, and occasional overnight coverage when the parents travel, with plenty of local family support on hand during those stretches.
