Position Overview
We are seeking a responsible, caring individual to provide daily household support and care for our family. The role is designed to assist the family’s mom in managing household responsibilities and caring primarily for our two youngest children (ages 4 and 6).

We also have an entrepreneurial spirit and enjoy being engaged in community and family-centered work.
