Private family looking to hire a Full-Time Family Assistant needed in Mandeville, LA,
The ideal candidate for this role is a highly responsible, organized, and proactive individual who can seamlessly manage household duties while allowing the parents to focus on their business. They should preferably have experience working in a household with school-aged children and be comfortable handling a mix of light cleaning/organization, meal preparation, and cooking simple family dinners, laundry, and errands. A candidate with strong communication skills, trustworthiness, and the ability to maintain a well-run home without constant oversight would be the best fit. While full deep cleaning is not required, they should be detail-oriented and able to keep the home tidy between scheduled cleanings. Ideally, the candidate is mature, reliable, and capable of taking initiative in daily tasks while being flexible to adjust to the family's needs.
What Works Best for Family: The family is seeking someone who can integrate into their home long-term, becoming a trusted part of their household. Since their daughter is in school most of the time, the role is more focused on household management rather than childcare. A candidate who can prepare simple dinners would be highly beneficial. They value someone who brings a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and the ability to keep the household running smoothly without extensive supervision.
