Description

A growing family in Menlo Park is seeking a Family Assistant to help with a wide variety of household tasks. They have a 1-year-old boy and are planning on having a second child.

This FA will be responsible for washing bottles/pump materials, preparing family/children’s meals, family laundry, errands, organization, light tidying and keeping the kitchen area clean (wiping down high chair, loading/unloading the dishwasher, wiping down counters and light sweeping).

They are very flexible on the schedule, but can guarantee 16 hours/week and require Saturdays and Sundays. They are open to someone working 4 hours or so on each weekend day, and working additional hours during the week. They’re happy to discuss the schedule based on the FA’s preferences.
