Description
Executive single mother is in need of an experienced and energetic Family Assistant who is skilled in cooking to help with her three young children ages 3-6 to start ASAP. The ideal candidate can speak both Spanish and English fluently (not a requirement) and has the flexibility to either live-in or stay overnights as needed. Over time the right FA for this family will be able to take charge without being told what to do and can work as a team with the mother.
The FA's schedule is M-F 6:30am-8:30pm. The three children will be in pre-school/public school during the day. During the weekends the mother will need help occasionally with advanced notice. Flexibility is essential as there are 4 months out of the year (January-April) that the FA will be needed more than usual during the work week and should be flexible with the mother's schedule. The FA will not be required to work every day during the week, whether live-in or live-out unless she wants as many hours as possible. If the mother ends up needing continual weekend help and the FA prefers to have weekends off after working all week, the FA can help the mother find a weekend nanny.
Other duties include, but are not limited to the following:
Driving the children to and from school, activities and appointments etc.
Running errands
Grocery shopping
Overnight care
Cooking for family
Scheduling
Organizing
Family laundry
Managing the home
For this position it's crucial that the FA doesn't have other work-related commitments that could interfere with her position and availability for this family. This family needs someone who is incredibly organized, patient, has high energy and the flexibility to work with the mother's schedule. The most important thing the mother wants is an FA who loves children, who she can depend on and trust who will be with her family for many years.
