About Our Family
We're a creative, busy household in Palmetto Bay with a lot of heart and a lot going on. Our family includes two parents who both work from home in demanding fields, a school-age child, a newborn, and a 13-year-old pup who rounds out the crew. The energy here is warm, forward-moving, and collaborative — we love a beautiful, organized home and believe the people who help run it are a true part of the team.
We have great systems in place: regular cleaners, landscaping, pool service, and other vendors are already dialed in. What we need now is someone to help carry the daily mental and physical load — to help our household run smoothly so we can pour our energy into the work and people we love most. We’re always dreaming up ideas and projects, and we’re excited to partner with someone who’ll help bring them to life.
We're looking for a long-term fit — someone who grows with us and feels invested in how well this home runs.
Who You Are
- Experienced, proactive household manager: You keep the home running, anticipate needs, plan ahead, offer solutions, and see projects through independently while adapting as priorities shift.
- Warm, family-friendly, and adaptable: You’re welcoming and comfortable around young children, including a newborn, and take pride in your work while rolling with changing plans.
- Discreet and professional: You’re comfortable in a creative, high-profile household, treat privacy as non-negotiable, and build a respectful, approachable working relationship where feedback goes both ways.
- Collaborative communicator and team leader: You understand Mom sets the priorities, communicate openly to keep everyone aligned, and confidently manage household staff by setting clear expectations and fostering teamwork.
