Housekeeper-Household Manager needed

This family-focused household in Old Town is seeking a reliable and trustworthy Housekeeper-Household Manager to provide part-time assistance keeping their home clean, orderly, and functioning smoothly. The family consists of three members and has two small Pomeranian dogs, requiring someone who not only enjoys caring for a home environment but also loves dogs. This role is perfect for an individual who is independent, motivated, and able to take initiative with minimal supervision. The position offers a long-term opportunity, allowing the successful candidate to become a valued part of the household's daily routine while maintaining a flexible schedule that accommodates the family's unique needs.

The family values maintaining a warm and inviting home, with the mom being a stay-at-home parent and a part-time nanny available to care for the child. The Housekeeper-Household Manager will primarily focus on light housekeeping duties, organization, and pet care, enabling the family to enjoy their time together without the worry of household management. This role does not require deep cleaning duties, as the family employs a professional cleaning service every two weeks for thorough cleaning tasks. Instead, the candidate’s responsibilities will center around day-to-day upkeep such as tidying, laundry, kitchen maintenance, and pet-related tasks.

The work schedule is part-time, involving two days a week with five hours each day, totaling 10 hours per week. While the family is flexible regarding which days of the week the candidate works, they prefer the days not be consecutive. Start and end times can also be adjusted, with the stipulation that work ends by 5 pm at the latest. Although no driving or transportation responsibilities are required as part of this position, parking accommodations may be arranged if the Housekeeper-Household Manager drives their own car to the job.

The family offers competitive compensation, with details to be discussed directly with the placement counselor, ensuring a fair agreement for both parties. Additionally, the position includes valuable benefits such as two weeks of paid vacation, paid national holidays that fall on a scheduled workday, and three paid sick days. This comprehensive benefits package further emphasizes the family’s commitment to supporting their household team members and fostering a positive working relationship.

Overall, this opportunity suits someone who thrives in a home environment, enjoys simple routines involving housekeeping and pet care, and appreciates the flexibility that a part-time role offers. The ideal candidate is a proactive, resourceful individual who values clear communication and reliability, ensuring that the household runs smoothly and comfortably for all family members and their beloved pets.
