Description
DDA is searching for a long-term family assistant (FA) in Brooklyn, NY. Our clients are busy professionals who are in need of an experienced live-out FA to start by June 1, 2021 for their 1-year old little boy. The FA's schedule will be 12pm-8pm M-F with the flexibility to start earlier and help occasionally over the weekend or when the family travels to their weekend lake house. Any help outside of the FA’s regular schedule will be compensated.
The family prefers local candidates who are familiar with the city since this is a live-out position.
Other duties include but are not limited to the following:
- All childcare related duties
- Cooking for the couple
- Running errands
- Grocery shopping
- Scheduling
- Organizing
- Family's laundry
- Dog walking
- Pet care and pet sitting
We are looking for mature candidates who will not be glued to their phones or the television but who will engage with the child in many creative ways while balancing the other household duties. Ideal candidates will learn how to take initiative, use her time wisely and get things done without having to be told what to do.
In addition, the right person will also love pets and be comfortable caring for them. One of the most important qualities is someone who the family can trust and depend on. The FA should have great communication and time management skills so that she can work independently and create her own routine.
