Housekeeper / Nanny

Houston TX

Description

Looking for household help starting within the next 1-3 weeks. 15-20hrs (3-4 days) per week to start and move to full-time after 4-6 weeks. We are expecting our first baby within the next 2 weeks and will move to full time as the baby is awake more frequently and requires more child-care than feeding/changing/bathing. Immediate Responsibilities: • Help with all baby things as necessary and care for the baby when I have to be on the occasional work call or be at my computer. • Daily laundry/dishes, picking up around the house and putting things away, keeping all surfaces clean throughout, including vacuuming and mopping floors, wiping cabinets/counters, bathrooms, etc. Occasionally taking our dog for a 15min walk. MUST be super detail-oriented, have a strong work ethic, and a positive get-it-done attitude. Streaks, sloppiness, dust, dog hair, and dishes in the sink should annoy you 🙂 As we move to full-time, more child-care responsibilities will be necessary. However, we are NOT looking for someone who wants to solely be a full-time Nanny that we would hand our child over to for the day. We are looking for someone who WANTS to roll up their sleeves and takes pride in becoming an integral asset to our young and growing family by helping us keep our home in order and supporting us as first-time parents so that we can keep our focus on our baby and our demanding careers. NICE TO HAVES: • Someone who can run an easy errand or pick up groceries and prepare a simple/easy meal (salads, sandwiches, pastas, nothing fancy). • CPR Certification • Someone who can travel with us occasionally – work trips, extended family visits, occasional vacation or weekend away. WE WILL NEED TO PERFORM A BACKGROUND CHECK and CALL REFERENCES !!! PAY IS DEPENDENT UPON EXPERIENCE (and we are happy to train the right person or pay more for experience) !!!
