Description: We are a dual-career family in Los Altos with three school-aged children (15, 12, and 10), seeking a proactive and trustworthy House Manager to assist with household organization, meal preparation, errands, and light family support. Our ideal candidate is independent, dependable, and takes initiative- someone who can anticipate needs, follow through on details, and keep things running smoothly without requiring close supervision. You’ll work primarily in partnership with Mom, and coordinate tasks to help the household stay organized and efficient. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys planning and prepping family meals, creating order, managing projects, and being a reliable, behind-the-scenes support for a busy household. Key Responsibilities: Meal Planning & Preparation Plan and prepare 3–4 healthy family dinners per week (focus on balanced meals with a protein, vegetable, and carb). Shop for groceries and household staples, including Costco runs for bulk items. Adapt meals for dietary needs (one child is lactose intolerant). Keep the kitchen clean and organized after meal prep. Family Support & Driving Assistance Provide occasional pickup/drop-off support for school and activities (all within a 5–10 mile radius). Use a family car or personal vehicle (mileage reimbursed) for driving assistance. Provide light supervision when kids have friends over. Household & Administrative Support Schedule and manage household appointments (dentist, orthodontist, etc.). Add reminders and appointments to the family’s Skylight calendar. Coordinate and research home maintenance projects as needed (e.g., gutter cleaning, deck repair, exterior painting). Handle online shopping and vendor communication as needed. Run local errands such as returns, post office, and store drop-offs. Household Maintenance & Projects Support with family laundry including washing, drying, folding and putting away (e.g., clothing, bedding, towels). Rotate and restock household essentials (e.g., paper goods, laundry supplies, cleaning supplies, etc). Manage occasional deep-clean or organization projects (e.g., pantry, garage, storage shed). Oversee or liaise with service providers (cleaners, landscapers, etc.). Occasionally help keep family vehicles clean, fueled, and organized. What We’re Looking For: Independent and proactive—can see what needs doing and take ownership. Reliable and trustworthy with strong follow-through. Warm and personable, but comfortable working autonomously. Tech-savvy (comfortable using shared apps and the Skylight calendar system). Strong communicator—clear, respectful, and organized. Additional Details: Hours may fluctuate slightly week-to-week depending on projects or needs. Family prefers to maintain flexibility around holidays and travel schedules.
