Our household includes two high school students and a college student who visits from time to time. Each day brings its own rhythm and responsibilities, from coordinating sports schedules and carpools to preparing meals, running errands, managing household projects, and keeping up with the many details that help a busy home function well. Our friendly yellow lab adds to the energy and warmth of the household.\nWith a full-time work schedule outside the home, we are looking for someone who can provide a steady, capable, and caring presence during the afternoons and evenings. This is often the busiest part of the day, when schedules overlap and several priorities may need attention at once. The children are becoming increasingly independent and are capable of managing many responsibilities on their own, but they still benefit from encouragement, organization, and gentle accountability, to help them stay on track.\nWe value someone who is proactive, thoughtful, organized, and comfortable taking ownership. The right person will notice what needs to be done, think ahead, communicate clearly, and follow through reliably. You should enjoy creating order, solving practical problems, and helping a busy family feel more supported and less overwhelmed.\nIn return, we offer a friendly, appreciative, and respectful environment where your contributions will be noticed and valued. This is an opportunity to become a meaningful part of a household that is looking for more than an extra set of hands. - we hope to find someone who will genuinely invest in our family, take pride in their work, and help make everyday life feel more organized, manageable, and enjoyable.\nWho You Are / What We're Looking For\nYou are an experienced household manager who takes genuine pride in caring for a home and helping everything run smoothly. You naturally notice what’s running low, what’s out of place, what maintenance needs attention, and what the week ahead may require, then take the initiative to handle it. You’re highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing many moving pieces at once. From maintaining household systems and inventory to coordinating errands, vendors, repairs, and family logistics, you enjoy staying informed, thinking ahead, and making life easier for the family.\nYou have an operations-minded approach and enjoy creating practical systems that keep the household organized and efficient. You’re comfortable taking responsibility for the day-to-day management of the home, including meal planning and preparation, grocery and supply management, home organization, laundry and linens, calendar coordination, vehicle upkeep, and special projects. You use good judgment, know how to prioritize, and can move comfortably between routine responsibilities and unexpected needs while keeping a calm, capable presence.\nYou also bring warmth, patience, and grounded energy to the family. You’re comfortable around teenagers and can build genuine rapport while offering structure, encouragement, and accountability when needed. You communicate clearly and proactively, whether through a quick text or a direct phone call when something would be better discussed. Most importantly, you see yourself as a true partner to the family: someone who anticipates needs, solves problems, follows through, and helps reduce the household’s mental load. You are someone the family can trust to keep the home organized, the logistics moving, and the details thoughtfully handled.\nKey Responsibilities\nFamily Support\nAfternoon school pickup and neighborhood carpool, including adapting to seasonal sports schedules\nProvide light supervision, helping teens stay on task and focused after school while encouraging independence, responsibility, and good decision-making\nAssist with errand support (school supplies, birthday gifts, etc.)\nHousehold Organization & Maintenance\nCreate and maintain household organization systems, with special focus given to the kitchen\nDaily household resets, including light tidying and making beds\nPrep home for weekly cleaners\nManage seasonal clothing swaps and holiday decorating\nAssist with event/holiday/guest prep as needed (including gift wrapping)\nMeal Planning & Prep\nFull meal planning and preparation for dinner 3-4 times per week\nGrocery shopping\nMaintaining a well-stocked kitchen without over-purchasing or duplicating items\nFollow dietary needs and preferences: healthy, family friendly meals\nKitchen clean-up and maintenance\nLaundry & Linen Care\nWash, fold, and organize household laundry\nLinen rotation and regular towel refreshing\nIroning and steaming as needed\nMaintain tidy land well stocked laundry areas\nInventory & Errands\nManage household supply lists and restocking (pantry, fridge, cleaning supplies, household essentials)\nHandle returns, dry cleaning drop-off and pickup, and occasional gift shopping\nManage household orders and subscriptions (Amazon/Costco/Target)\nPackage handling and management, including breakdown of boxes\nPet Care\nDog feeding and walks on days the dog is home (3 days per week)\nDaycare pickup twice per week (approximately 10 minutes away)\nAssist with vet and grooming scheduling\nTrack monthly heartworm medication via Skylight\nMaintain pet supplies\nAdministrative & Personal Assistant Support\nCalendar management via Skylight, including inputting seasonal sports schedules and school events\nAssist with event and appointment coordination\nMail sorting on a daily basis\nDeep Cleaning & Special Projects\nPeriodic deep cleans: clean out fridge, oven, baseboards\nRefresh and organize drop zones including garage, mudroom, and entry areas\nClean humidifiers and air purifiers as needed\nLead major organizational projects: basement (top priority), home office, and sitting room\nVehicle Management\nCoordinate family vehicle maintenance and schedule repairs as needed\nKeep vehicles organized, tidy, and fueled\nTrack registration and insurance renewals\nVendor & Property Oversight\nBe present for repair and service appointments\nOversee and manage existing service contracts (cleaners, contractors, landscapers)\nResearch and coordinate repairs and quotes\nSeasonal property and outdoor space maintenance as needed\nHow to Apply\nPlease submit the following:\nA brief cover letter explaining why you’d be a good fit for this role\nYour updated resume\nAt least 3 professional references with their contact information\nPlease Note: This role requires a background check.\n Disclaimer:\nWhen you apply with Sage Haus, you'll also be added to our candidate community email list so we can share hiring updates, resources, and opportunities.
