    A private family, consisting of a couple and their delightful 4.5-year-old daughter. is seeking an experienced and detail-oriented housekeeper to join their team in maintaining their high-end home.

    The husband has a terminal condition that impacts his speech and movement, so someone comfortable being around someone who is sick, is crucial.


    The Ideal Candidate:
    A housekeeper with extensive experience working in larger, more formal private residences.

    who possesses a keen eye for detail and expertise in caring for finer materials, including marble, fine artwork, frames, and exquisite furniture.

    Must know how to dust and clean these items appropriately and care for them meticulously. Beyond mere cleaning prowess, the family values traits such as compassion, discretion, and adaptability. Someone easygoing and service-oriented.

    What Works Best for the Family:

    They have a four-and-a-half-year-old daughter who will want to interact and play with the housekeeper so someone who enjoys children is key.

    Cleaning is the primary role of the housekeeper but other daily responsibilities might include:

    Small Footprint Mentality:

    The family values a candidate who understands the importance of being present yet discreet, adapting seamlessly to the needs of their household ensuring that the rhythm of our household remains undisturbed.

    Someone adept at "reading the room." Child-friendly: Their daughter loves engaging with those in the home, so a candidate who enjoys children and can pivot tasks appropriately is crucial.

    A candidate who cherishes moments with children and can adjust tasks accordingly is the best fit.


    Flexibility and Proactivity:
    From understanding rotational cleaning schedules to preempting evolving needs, adaptability to changing needs is key. Someone savvy and seasoned in their approach to cleaning will be highly valued.


    Responsibilities:

    Exquisite Cleaning:
    Full, detailed cleaning of the home (dusting, vacuuming, etc.) including kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, playrooms, offices, etc.


    Rotational Work Philosophy:
    Understanding and implementing rotational work principles to prioritize cleaning tasks effectively. A nuanced understanding of prioritizing tasks ensures that our home remains in optimal condition.


    Laundry Expertise:
    The family has a Laundress who comes a few days/week but this candidate must also know how to handle laundry duties and care for fine fabrics when necessary


    Culinary Support:
    Assisting with meal preparation, table setting, and kitchen cleanup


    Hospitality Assistance:
    Greeting guests, serving beverages, and providing support during occasional gatherings


    Additional Duties:
