Family and Household Dynamics

A peek behind the front door...

About the Children:

This lovely family has two school-aged children, ages 12 and 10, who both attend school full-time and have busy activity schedules. Their youngest walks to and from school, and family request occasional support with transport to/from for their oldest.
While the children are an important part of the household, childcare is only a small portion of this Household Assistant role. The family is looking for someone who is naturally comfortable around and enjoys children, and who is happy to provide occasional support a few times per month, including an occasional date night.

About the Family:

This is a busy two-parent household where both parents work and prioritize spending their available time with their children. They are looking for a capable Household Assistant who can take ownership of the many behind-the-scenes tasks that keep their home organized and family life running smoothly.
The family maintains a very tidy, organized home and values attention to detail. Everything has a place, and they appreciate someone who will learn their preferences, ask questions when unsure, clean up after themselves and consistently follow through.
This same-sex couple is looking for someone who will be a warm, respectful and supportive presence in their family. Both parents may work from home as needed, so the right candidate will also be comfortable working independently if/when parents are in the home.

About the Pets:

The family has two friendly dogs, including a 90-pound Bernese Mountain Dog and a 45-pound mixed-breed do. The Household Assistant should like dogs and willing to assist with pet-related coordination/care as needed.

Additional Notes:

They are looking for a long-term partner who genuinely wants to do the job well. A good sense of humor, positive energy and the ability to be playful while staying focused will fit well in their home.

Key Responsibilities

A day in the life...

Standard Duties:

A trusted housekeeper comes every other Friday and has worked with the family for 15 years. No heavy housekeeping is expected. The Household Assistant will instead focus on maintaining the home between visits, organization, household logistics and the everyday tasks that make life easier for the family.
All standard Household Assistant duties are required, including but not limited to online grocery shopping and putting groceries away, meal prep, errands and returns, family laundry and linens, household inventory and restocking, vehicle-related errands, pet care coordination, and travel preparation and packing.
The Household Assistant will also help keep the home organized and running smoothly by maintaining closets, the refrigerator and common areas, handling light household tidying, coordinating vendors and services, managing appointments and calendars, completing research and scheduling projects, watering plants as needed, and assisting with seasonal and holiday decor.

College degree is not required. The family is open to candidates with a variety of educational backgrounds and will prioritize relevant experience, professionalism and overall fit.
Candidates must be highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to learn and maintain the family’s household systems. They should notice what needs attention, take initiative, follow through consistently and ask questions when something is unclear rather than making assumptions.
The ideal candidate will be dependable, proactive and comfortable managing a varied household task list while working around children, pets and parents who may be working from home.

Rated 5 out of 5

As a self-represented nanny for the last 8 years, I can say that I will never look for a new family without ABC again! I recently moved across the country and was very worried about finding the right family long distance…ABC was there every step of the way and made the whole process hassle free. I would recommend them to any career nanny looking for a great family, or for any family looking for a great nanny.

I have had the privilege of working with the first-rate staff at ABC Nannies in my job search and placement, as a Nanny and House Manager. Personal experience in this field, for over forty years, led me to seek the services of a placement agency with parallel experience and exceptional reputation. I have not been disappointed! ...I highly recommend working with them.

This company is worth their weight in GOLD! ABC is the most valuable asset to my housekeeping career, truly. Without them I would not be the success I am today. The families they represent are tip of the top, cream of the crop. They have matched me with families that I will keep in touch with for the rest of my life…and they just connected me with another super awesome family! I will be forever grateful.

It has been a true blessing to work for ABC Nannies. I know they have my best interest at heart and I could not be happier with my current position as a nanny and personal assistant to a wonderful family! I have worked for both their temporary service and full time placement service and have always had a great experience with the staff. Their customer service is top-notch and they are the best in Colorado!

My experience as a nanny with ABC Nannies has been nothing short of amazing! They are communicative, supportive, kind, and so helpful with finding amazing placements for both the nanny and the family. They are there to answer any questions, check in with how you’re feeling and if you’re happy with your placement, showing genuine care for everyone involved.

Working with ABC Nannies & Domestics has been a dream! ...I was recruited out of state and did quite a bit of research before choosing an agency I knew I could trust. I wanted to be represented by an agency with an exemplary reputation and ABC Nannies and Domestics has that in spades. I’m looking forward to working with them for many years.
