A single Dad is looking for a kind, organized housekeeper to help keep their home running smoothly a few days a week. The role includes housekeeping, organizing the home (especially when the family is traveling), and helping pack simple school lunches for two sweet boys, ages 9 and 11. They would also love someone who enjoys cooking to prepare a Sunday meal for the family.
The kids split their time between two homes, so the schedule can be a little fluid, but they are hoping for someone available Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, with flexible 8-hour days. The family is really hoping to find someone reliable, discreet, and easy to have around the home. They would love someone who feels like a natural fit and could potentially grow with the family over time. They are hoping to find the right person and get started fairly soon.

If you are an OCD meticulous Executive Housekeeper with a great eye for detail who would enjoy working for a kind couple (no pets — no children) in a gorgeous Beverly Hills home — this is the job for you! The schedule is Monday through Friday from approximately 8:00am to 4:30pm. Hopefully you can stay late every once in a while to help out if there is a dinner party. Excellent hourly pay via payroll plus PTO offered. Please reach out if interested.

Candidates should have resumes that display loyalty, a clean background and glowing references.
