About Our Family

We are a family on the cusp of the empty nest stage, with our three daughters heading off to various colleges and beginning exciting new chapters of their lives. Our home is a blend of warmth, activity, travel, and transition, as both of us periodically work from home and enjoy occasional travel throughout the year.

We live in a historic home on Indianapolis’ north side that is full of character, charm, and the thoughtful upkeep that naturally comes with an older property. Day-to-day life involves coordinating with trusted vendors, staying ahead of household maintenance and projects, and ensuring everything runs smoothly and calmly behind the scenes.

Our household also includes a friendly golden retriever and two cats, who are very much part of the family. Above all, we value privacy, discretion, positivity, and a peaceful home environment that feels organized, welcoming, and well cared for. We’re hoping to find someone who is not only professional and detail-oriented, but also fun, friendly, upbeat, and genuinely enjoys becoming a positive presence within a family’s daily rhythm.

Who You Are / What We're Looking For

Proactive problem-solver: You anticipate needs and resolve issues before they become urgent.

Independent and assertive: Comfortable taking initiative and managing tasks with minimal supervision.

Positive and lighthearted: Bring a sense of humor to your work while staying focused and professional.

Warm and personable: Friendly and kind, while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries.

Clear communicator: Keep us informed, especially when we’re traveling, so we always know things are on track.

Detail-oriented and thoughtful: Help free up our mental bandwidth by anticipating details and thinking through solutions on our behalf.

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.
