MUST LIVE ON THE PENINSULA. Only candidates currently residing on the Peninsula with a 10-15 mile radius of Atherton will be considered for this role.
A warm and private family is seeking a thoughtful, detail-oriented, and highly organized Family Assistant to support the day-to-day flow of their busy household. The ideal candidate will be proactive, dependable, and naturally service-minded, with experience helping families stay on top of schedules, logistics, and daily tasks.
This role involves hands-on support across a variety of responsibilities. The Family Assistant will help coordinate personal and family calendars, appointments, school and activity schedules, and domestic and international travel. The role also includes running errands such as grocery shopping, dry cleaning, and returns, as well as helping with general household organization and ensuring the home is well-stocked with essential items. The Family Assistant will also help make reservations, book appointments, handle personal correspondence, and occasionally assist with light administrative or tech-related tasks to support the family.
This position will work closely with existing household staff, including a chef and housekeeper, to ensure the home runs smoothly, but it is not a supervisory role. There is no nanny, you will also be required to help out with after school pick ups, taking to after school sports and actives, and possibly help with HW supervision. The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys being helpful and resourceful, stays calm under pressure, and brings a warm and professional energy to their work. Discretion, trustworthiness, and attention to detail are essential, as is the ability to anticipate needs and pivot easily between tasks.
Previous experience supporting a family in a private home as a nanny and/or a Family Assistant is strongly preferred. Must have a minimum of 5 years recent full time experience working in a private, HNW busy home setting. Comfort with smart home systems, basic budgeting or expense tracking, and strong organizational instincts will all be valuable in this role. The family values loyalty, consistency, and a positive attitude, and they are looking for someone who is interested in building a long-term working relationship. They are kind, down-to-earth, and private, and they seek someone who shares those values. Salary DOE, $120-$140,00 DOE. Please send professional resumes to: hello@thesuitestaff.com
