Overview

A lovely single father on the Upper East Side is seeking an experienced, tech-savvy, detail-oriented full-time housekeeper to join his busy and dynamic household. This is a highly collaborative environment with multiple staff, including two nannies, an assistant, and a part-time cook. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator, child-friendly, flexible, and comfortable working in a home with frequent movement, shifting schedules, and multiple residences within the same building.

Although this is primarily a housekeeping role, the family values having a second adult present in the home who can offer backup coverage when a nanny is unavailable. The children are 7 & 11, so its just being a watchful presence in the home. The home is warm, fast-paced, busy, and joyful—an excellent long-term fit for someone who enjoys being part of a team.
