Dream family to join as their Housemanager in the beautiful East Bay
Posted : 01/24/26
This lovely family in Lafayette is looking for a proactive, hands-on household helper to support the day-to-day flow of their home. They already have housekeepers and laundry help, but missing someone who is truly focused on home maintenance, organization, and overall upkeep — the person who notices what needs to be done and just takes care of it. They moved into their home about three months ago and have had quite a few issues, so this role would include coordinating with plumbers and other vendors, meeting them at the house, helping manage repairs, and eventually assisting with remodel-related tasks.
Day to day, this person would help with things like pantry inventory, ordering and stocking household items, breaking down boxes, light tidying, trash management, and supporting on laundry days. It’s very much an A-to-Z role — helping wherever needed, keeping things organized, and making sure the house runs smoothly. Kids will often be around in the afternoons, so comfort working in a family environment is important.
There’s also potential for some household admin support (travel planning, scheduling, setting up summer camps), but that’s a bonus — not a requirement. They are looking for someone who is naturally proactive, takes ownership, and doesn’t need to be asked for every task. Ideally, this is someone who treats the home like their own, enjoys jumping in.
This role would start part-time, around 20–32 hours per week, ideally 3 full weekdays, with flexibility. Weekday hours are preferred, with occasional evening or event help if available. Compensation is competitive and based on experience. They are looking for a long-term fit — someone who wants to grow with the household and truly be a steady, reliable presence. East Bay resident preferred:) Look forward to hearing from you if you are a fit!
