About the Company
- We’re a busy, warm household of four in Brooklyn with two working parents and two boys, ages 6 and 2. We both work from home, so home life is active throughout the day, but we’ve put systems in place to keep things organized. We’re looking for someone who can step into that rhythm, take ownership of the details, and help make the day-to-day feel a little lighter.
- Our boys are easygoing, curious, and welcoming. Our older son is active and enjoys his after-school activities, while our younger son is in full-time daycare. With two working parents and no nearby family support, we’re looking for help with the things that tend to pile up: laundry, groceries, meal prep, daily resets, errands, assisting with getting our older son to and from afternoon activities and weekly evening childcare support. One of the biggest ways this support would make a difference is helping us create more time for family life and regular date nights.
- We’re vegetarian and enjoy simple, healthy meals and would welcome someone contributing on this front a few times a week. More than anything, we’re looking for someone who can become a trusted part of our routine, notice what needs attention, and help keep the household running smoothly.
