Comfortable around indoor/outdoor family cat. About Our Family We are a warm, busy single parent family with three school-aged children (all in elementary grades) who split time between parents. Our family values inclusivity, empathy, and respect. We seek someone who naturally embodies these principles and creates an environment where everyone feels welcome. We value professionalism, clear boundaries, and a calm, capable presence who helps our home run smoothly so we can focus on quality time with the kids. A friendly indoor/outdoor cat is part of the family. We’re transitioning from a live-in child care centric model to a professional, live-out house manager arrangement.

You bring strong executive-function skills, take initiative, communicate clearly, and follow through without needing constant direction. You’re comfortable with household systems, can coordinate moving pieces across two homes, and maintain healthy boundaries while still being friendly and supportive with the children. You’re solution-oriented, detail-minded, and energized by creating order. You are adaptable, respectful, and comfortable working with individuals and families who may have diverse backgrounds and lifestyles. We’re looking for someone who can keep the trains running on time — ensuring schedules, logistics, and daily routines flow smoothly without a hitch.
