Position Overview

We are a busy family in Odessa looking for a dependable, organized, proactive House Manager / Nanny to help keep our household running smoothly.

This is a combination childcare and household-management position. We are looking for someone who enjoys working with children but is also comfortable taking initiative with everyday household responsibilities, organization, errands, meal preparation, and family routines.

The ideal candidate is someone who naturally sees what needs to be done and takes ownership without needing constant direction.

Our household includes children of different ages, with the primary day-to-day childcare needs involving our 3-year-old and 11-year-old.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities may include:

• Picking children up from school, activities, or appointments
• Providing safe, attentive, and engaging childcare
• Helping maintain afternoon and evening routines
• Preparing simple meals and snacks for the children
• Assisting with family meal preparation
• Helping prepare lunches, backpacks, clothing, and other items for the following day
• Children’s laundry
• Light household organization and tidying
• Keeping the kitchen and commonly used areas organized
• Running occasional errands or grocery pickups
• Helping maintain household supplies and organization
• Assisting with transportation to activities
• Occasionally helping with weekend activities or family needs
• Anticipating household needs and helping solve problems before they become stressful

This position is not intended to be a housekeeping-only role, but we do expect the person in this position to help maintain an organized environment while caring for the children.

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for someone who is:

• Extremely reliable and punctual
• Warm, patient, and genuinely enjoys children
• Organized and detail-oriented
• Proactive and able to work independently
• Comfortable taking initiative without needing a detailed checklist throughout the day
• Able to multitask in a busy family environment
• Comfortable driving children
• Flexible when occasional family needs change
• Interested in developing a consistent, long-term working relationship with a family

Prior experience as a nanny, family assistant, household manager, childcare provider, teacher, or similar role is strongly preferred.

Requirements

• Valid driver’s license
• Reliable transportation
• Safe driving record
• Ability to pass a background check
• Prior childcare experience preferred
• Professional references preferred
• Comfortable working around children of different ages
• Reliable attendance is essential

Compensation

$22-28hr

Approximately 30–36 hours per week, depending on the family’s schedule and candidate availability.

Schedule

Typical schedule:

• Approximately 4 weekdays per week
• Approximately 12:00 PM–8:00 PM
• One half-day on the weekend

Some flexibility is appreciated.

What We’re Looking For Long-Term

We are not simply looking for someone to supervise the children for a few hours.

We are looking for a trusted person who can become an important part of our household, build a strong relationship with our children, and help create more structure and consistency for our family.

If you are someone who takes pride in being dependable, notices what needs to be done, enjoys children, and likes helping a household operate efficiently, we would love to hear from you.
