Job Description

This opportunity is with a small, caring family based in Manhattan, New York City, seeking a professional housekeeper to join their household. The family values kindness and respect, ensuring a supportive work environment. This role is ideal for a highly experienced and energetic individual who takes pride in maintaining a clean, organized, and comfortable living space. The position offers a competitive hourly wage ranging from $42 to $45 and guarantees 30 to 33 hours of work per week. Workdays are Monday through Friday, providing a stable and predictable schedule. Typical work hours are from 10:00 or 10:30 am until 4:00 pm most days, with one day per week requiring a later shift from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm.

The housekeeper's primary responsibilities focus on deep cleaning tasks throughout the home, including meticulous attention to areas that may often be overlooked. This includes sweeping the terrace, cleaning inside the microwave, and cleaning behind furniture, ensuring every corner of the home is spotless. Additionally, the role involves organizing cabinets, closets, and drawers to keep the household orderly and efficient. The position also requires doing laundry and ironing clothing and bed sheets, emphasizing the importance of precision and care. Occasionally, when the family hosts dinner guests, the housekeeper will iron tablecloths and assist in setting an impeccable presentation for special occasions.

This is a non-cooking role in a household without pets, making it an excellent fit for professionals who prefer to focus solely on cleaning and household maintenance. While Tagalog-speaking candidates are welcome and considered a plus, it is not a requirement for the position. The family values a dependable and professional demeanor with a strong work ethic, and they provide a harmonious and respectful environment. Communication for application is directed via email, indicating a direct and personal hiring process. This role is perfectly suited for someone who thrives in a structured schedule and takes pride in delivering high-quality housekeeping services. Overall, this opportunity offers a blend of competitive pay, a respectful family atmosphere, and a work schedule that supports work-life balance within the vibrant city of New York.
