Job Description

An energetic family in Palos Verdes Estates is seeking an experienced Personal & Family Assistant to become a trusted extension of their household. This is an excellent opportunity for an organized, service-minded professional who enjoys helping busy families stay on track while building meaningful, long-term relationships.


The household includes three active children (ages 11, 13, and 14).. With busy extracurricular schedules, multiple pets, two long-term housekeepers, and many moving pieces throughout the day, the family is looking for someone who can bring structure, organization, and proactive support to their lives.


The ideal candidate is highly organized, adaptable, discreet, and naturally helpful. They enjoy anticipating needs, managing logistics, and creating order behind the scenes so the family can focus on what matters most. This person will serve as a trusted right hand to the principal, helping ensure schedules, appointments, vendors, household operations, and family commitments run smoothly.


The home is lively, energetic, and relationship-focused. The family values loyalty, consistency, and genuine connections, and they hope to find someone who will become an integral part of their household for years to come. In return, they offer a warm, welcoming environment where the right person can make a meaningful impact while helping create greater organization, efficiency, and peace of mind for the entire family.

  • Help maintain organization across household operations

Pet Support

  • Coordinate veterinary appointments and pet-related scheduling

  • Assist with transportation to appointments as needed

Meal Assistance
  • Assist with light meal preparation when needed

  • Pick up meals for children during activity-heavy days

IDEAL CANDIDATE

  • Warm, positive, and relationship-oriented, with a genuine passion for supporting families

  • Flexible and adaptable, with the ability to anticipate needs and thrive in a dynamic household environment

  • Professional, discreet, and collaborative, with excellent communication skills and the ability to work alongside household staff, vendors, children, and pets

  • Strong driver's record required

  • Native Spanish-speaking strongly preferred, with the ability and willingness to converse with the children in Spanish

  • Seeking a long-term role and excited to become a trusted, valued member of the household

SCHEDULE

  • Monday-Friday || 1:00-9:00/10:00pm (guaranteed 40 hours per week)

  • Flexibility to work morning and split shifts

  • Advance notice about schedule changes given whenever possible but willingness to pivot on short notice is important


COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

  • $40–$45/hour DOE

  • 2 Weeks PTO

  • Medical Stipend/Reimbursement TBD

  • Housing Available: Small private studio/one-bedroom apartment available for the right candidate, if desired
THE RIGHT FIT

More than anything, this family is hoping to find the right person—not just to help manage the day-to-day, but to become a trusted and valued part of their lives. They deeply appreciate loyalty, kindness, and genuine connection, and look forward to welcoming someone who is excited to build a long-term relationship with their family while making a meaningful impact each day.
