Super cool & kind NY family is moving to Brentwood and would like to hire a devoted live IN Housekeeper who is willing to NOT see friends/family and will ONLY go from home to work. They have three children, one dog and two cats. They want to hire someone who is great with laundry — likes to cook and is willing to do errands once it’s safe to be out in the world. They are concerned about safety during the pandemic and want to ensure your health and their own. To that end, they will RENT you a separate apartment near their home that you can stay 100% quarantined when not working. They will keep to a regular schedule, but would like to hire someone who is willing to be flexible when necessary. They pay hourly on the books, give paid time off (for vacation, sick days & holidays) and will give a stipend for health benefits. This is an INCREDIBLE opportunity! Please respond if interested. Thank you!

Coolest laid back Topanga Canyon family with six children ranging in age from 1 to 16 is looking for help Saturdays and Sundays from 7:30am to 3:30pm. Mom and Dad are super hands on with the children, many of whom are old enough to be self sufficient. They would like to have help getting the days going — making coffee, putting together a nice family breakfast (nothing fancy — they aren’t looking for a Chef, just someone who is comfortable in the kitchen) and light housekeeping. There’s a Housekeeper during the week, so this is not a job that involves deep cleaning. It’s more about being an extra set of hands and helping to cook and pick-up around the house so that parents can enjoy their children and not wind up with a huge mess at the end of the day. If you are a Housekeeper who lives far away from Topanga, you are welcome to spend the night in the private guest house. Applicants must be pet friendly because the family has four dogs (one big, one medium & two small) and a cat. Some help with the children would be welcome, but duties are primarily tidying, helping with meals & doing laundry. Hourly pay is on the books. This house has a laid back chill FAMILY vibe!!! Staff stays with the family FOREVER! If you are looking to pick up weekend hours — look no further!!!

This is an AWESOME job!!! Please reach out if interested. Thank you!
