(Option to use family car for work related driving) About Our Family We are a family with two parents in demanding but fulfilling careers, requiring them to commute to the city Monday through Thursday. When we are home, we are eager to be fully present with our two boys, ages 14 and 10—whether that's cheering on the sidelines at sports events or embarking on new adventures together. Despite our busy schedules, we place a high value on making the most of our time as a family, and we strive to balance our work and home life in a way that fosters connection and enjoyment. Our Australian Labradoodle adds an extra level of energy and joy to the household. We love having an organized, calm home environment so that when the workday is over, we can truly unwind and recharge. For us, the little things—like ensuring the compost is emptied before dinner or the kitchen is tidy—make a huge difference in how we can relax and enjoy the evening together. We want to come home to a space that feels calm and welcoming, where we can enjoy our time as a family without distractions. We have a weekly house cleaner and meal prep service, but we need someone to manage the household day-to-day, including keeping things organized and assisting with the boys' routines. We're looking for someone who shares these values and can help create a home environment where we can truly relax and be present with one another, allowing us to focus on what really matters when we're together. Who You Are / What We're Looking For You are a nurturing and attentive individual who values building long-term, trusting relationships with children. You have a unique ability to connect with both our 10‑year‑old and 14‑year‑old, understanding their personalities and adjusting your approach to each of their needs. You'll be a positive and steady presence in their lives, developing a warm, respectful bond with each of them. A key quality we're looking for is someone who speaks the language of teenage boys—understanding their moods, interests, and energy levels. Whether it's engaging with our 10-year-old in his more affectionate moments or keeping our 14-year-old on track while maintaining his independence, you can connect in a way that feels natural and genuine. You're not just there to supervise but to participate, listen, and build a rapport that allows for open communication, respect, and collaboration. In addition to your ability to bond with the boys, you possess the critical thinking skills to anticipate their needs and adjust daily routines accordingly. You'll know that a long practice means extra food for a hungry athlete or they may need some extra patience after a tough day at school. You'll be proactive in ensuring that each child gets what they need, whether that's support with homework, ensuring their sports gear is ready, or simply understanding when they need a little space or encouragement. You bring a proactive mindset to household tasks—thinking ahead to what needs to be done, from preparing for the next day's events to organizing and tidying up the home. However, you're also comfortable collaborating with the family and taking feedback on what's most important each day. You're adaptable and can shift your focus based on the family's needs, whether it's a last‑minute change in plans or prioritizing specific tasks. This balance of initiative and flexibility is key to thriving in this role.
