Part-Time Family Assistant & Housekeeper, Fort Worth, 76104
Reliable, enthusiastic & trustworthy family assistant & housekeeper needed for family in Fairmount, Fort Worth
About our family:
We are a loving, silly, playful family with one 6 year old daughter and one very snuggly Border Collie. We live in the Historic Fairmount neighborhood.
Dad works outside of the home 3 days a week, and mom owns a small business. Our daughter is in a university-model school program and is in school 3 days a week. Our church and neighborhood community are a big part of our lives, and we try to model being considerate and kind humans who think beyond ourselves and our own needs.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, friendly, trustworthy self-starter who can take on some of the household and occasional childcare responsibilities (optional) to help keep our home running smoothly and give us more free time to focus on our family and our work.
About our home:
~3000 sqft, 4 bdrm 4 bath in a historic neighborhood. Kitchen, living room and dining room cleaned weekly, but bedrooms on an alternating weekly schedule so you will not clean the entire home in one visit.
About our daughter:
She is a bright, funny, playful 6 year old in 1st grade who occasionally has some big feelings. She enjoys reading, doing crafts, making experiments, and playing with friends. She has a heart for animals. Because she is an only child, she tends to express her opinions as if she were one of the adults, but once boundaries are established, she tries her very best to be respectful.
