Title: House Manager & Family Assistant (Meal Prep Focus)

Location: Los Altos, CA 94024

Employment Type: Part-time (10–12 hours/week, with flexibility up to 15 hours)

Proposed Start Date: ASAP

Compensation: $40–50/hour, based on experience

Requirements: Maintain a smoke-free environment, pass background check, have reliable transportation, and a clean driving record.

Proposed Schedule: 2–3 days per week, Monday–Thursday, flexible daytime hours.

Description:

We are a dual-career family in Los Altos with three school-aged children (15, 12, and 10), seeking a proactive and trustworthy House Manager to assist with household organization, meal preparation, errands, and light family support.

Our ideal candidate is independent, dependable, and takes initiative- someone who can anticipate needs, follow through on details, and keep things running smoothly without requiring close supervision. You’ll work primarily in partnership with Mom, and coordinate tasks to help the household stay organized and efficient.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys planning and prepping family meals, creating order, managing projects, and being a reliable, behind-the-scenes support for a busy household.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Meal Planning & PreparationPlan and prepare 3–4 healthy family dinners per week (focus on balanced meals with a protein, vegetable, and carb). Shop for groceries and household staples, including Costco runs for bulk items. Adapt meals for dietary needs (one child is lactose intolerant). Keep the kitchen clean and organized after meal prep.
  • Family Support & Driving AssistanceProvide occasional pickup/drop-off support for school and activities (all within a 5–10 mile radius). Use a family car or personal vehicle (mileage reimbursed) for driving assistance. Provide light supervision when kids have friends over.
  • Household & Administrative SupportSchedule and manage household appointments (dentist, orthodontist, etc.). Add reminders and appointments to the family’s Skylight calendar. Coordinate and research home maintenance projects as needed (e.g., gutter cleaning, deck repair, exterior painting). Handle online shopping and vendor communication as needed. Run local errands such as returns, post office, and store drop-offs.
  • Household Maintenance & ProjectsSupport with family laundry including washing, drying, folding and putting away (e.g., clothing, bedding, towels). Rotate and restock household essentials (e.g., paper goods, laundry supplies, cleaning supplies, etc). Manage occasional deep-clean or organization projects (e.g., pantry, garage, storage shed). Oversee or liaise with service providers (cleaners, landscapers, etc.). Occasionally help keep family vehicles clean, fueled, and organized.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Independent and proactive—can see what needs doing and take ownership.
  • Reliable and trustworthy with strong follow-through.
  • Warm and personable, but comfortable working autonomously.
  • Tech-savvy (comfortable using shared apps and the Skylight calendar system).
  • Strong communicator—clear, respectful, and organized.

Additional Details:

  • Hours may fluctuate slightly week-to-week depending on projects or needs.
  • Family prefers to maintain flexibility around holidays and travel schedules.

How to Apply:

If interested, please email with the following:

  • A brief letter explaining why you believe you would be a great fit for this position.
  • Your updated resume
  • At least 3 professional references with contact information.

When you apply with Sage Haus, you’ll also be added to our candidate community email list so we can share hiring updates, resources, and opportunities. Don’t worry — you can unsubscribe at any time if it’s not for you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
