About Our Family

Our family consists of two children: a 7-year-old boy and a 4-year-old boy. Our 7 year old is deeply thoughtful and intellectually curious which can lead to moments of big emotions. This can require a delicate balance of calm, firm boundaries and emotional support. We are looking for someone who can connect with him in a way that allows him to express his emotions while still holding those boundaries, creating a safe and nurturing environment for him to thrive. Our 4-year-old is full of energy and joy, and currently attends half-day preschool. Both boys enjoy activities such as piano, swimming and karate.

Both parents work from home. Dad has occasional travel for work, and Mom is in the process of growing her business, which involves hosting workshops both virtually and in person. Our home is lively and full of activity, and while we love the energy, we are still in the process of settling in after moving a few years ago. As the house continues to evolve, we're looking for someone to help with meal prep, laundry, and to bring overall organization and support to our daily lives.

Who You Are:

We are looking for an organized, detail-oriented, and proactive individual to assist with household management and provide occasional backup childcare support. You will have the opportunity to grow with our family over time, playing a key role in ensuring the household runs smoothly, while adapting to evolving needs. The ideal candidate will have a calm demeanor, be comfortable setting boundaries with the children when needed, and be able to manage emotional situations with patience and understanding. Experience working with neurodivergent children is a plus!

You are tech-savvy, efficient with your time, and confident in handling meal planning and prep. The kids enjoy a variety of flavors, particularly Korean, Thai and Indian , so familiarity with these types of meals would be great. We value someone who is independent, communicates clearly, and can serve as Mom's right hand as she navigates growing her business, all while helping maintain balance and structure in the home.
