About Our Family

We’re a warm, active family of five with three children and two dogs, living in a welcoming home in West Newton. With both parents working full-time and a busy household schedule, our days are often full and plans can occasionally shift. We appreciate someone who can comfortably adapt in real time, bring a sense of calm and organization to the day, and keep the important details moving forward.

We’re fortunate to have a wonderful, long-standing team of trusted support already in place, including a housekeeper who has been part of our household for more than 13 years, along with established partners who help with various family and home needs. Our household includes a child with physical care needs, supported by Personal Care Attendants (PCAs). The House Manager will help coordinate PCA schedules, staffing and related logistics, while the PCAs remain responsible for providing direct personal care.

We’re looking for someone who can help bring all of these moving pieces together—coordinating schedules, anticipating needs, creating practical systems, and helping the household run smoothly behind the scenes. The right person will be warm, thoughtful, proactive, and highly organized, with strong communication skills and good judgment. We value someone who understands the importance of discretion and privacy and who can confidently take ownership while also enjoying being part of a collaborative household.

Above all, we’re hoping to build a long-term relationship with someone who genuinely enjoys supporting a busy family and takes pride in creating a home that feels organized, prepared, and well cared for. We see this person as a trusted partner who can bring consistency and breathing room to our day-to-day lives.
