About Our Family

We're a busy, warm, and deeply connected household in Canton, Michigan. Both parents work remotely in high-demand professional roles with regular meetings throughout the day, and are also building side ventures in real estate and content creation. Travel is occasional for both parents, ranging from a few times a year to once a quarter.

Our home is full of life - two young children, two cats, and a rhythm that moves fast. Our older child has high support needs and currently has a dedicated nanny who cares for him during the day. Our younger child attends daycare and brings her own wonderful energy home each evening. A possible third child is on the horizon, so this household is growing and we want someone who can grow with us.

We've put a lot of thought and love into our home, and we're committed to building a strong, well-run household. A professional organizer is doing a one-time whole-home setup, and we need someone to own and maintain those systems going forward. We also have a rental property nearby that may occasionally require support during regular working hours.

We're looking for someone who can be a trusted, consistent presence in our home - someone who feels like family while maintaining the professionalism that keeps things running smoothly. Reliability, timing, and genuine warmth matter deeply to the.

Who You Are / What We're Looking For

You are someone who walks into a home and instinctively knows what needs to happen next. You don't wait to be asked - you notice, you act, and you take pride in the details. You're physically capable and energetic, comfortable navigating a multi-level home and engaging with a household that has a lot of moving parts. You communicate openly and honestly and comfortable with us doing the same. You genuinely enjoy being around children, including those with complex needs, and you approach every member of our household with patience, care, and warmth. You're consistent, punctual, and the kind of person who makes a household feel calm just by showing up.
