Overview
A mom and her sixteen-year-old son in Menlo Park are seeking a full-time live-out housekeeper. The schedule is Mondays through Fridays from 11 am-7 pm. It would be great if the candidate had the flexibility to do one - to two weekend days a month when needed, but it is not required. The schedule for these days would be a Saturday or Sunday from 9 am - 1 pm, but the family can be flexible. There may be days they will ask the housekeeper to stay later, but this will be communicated in advance. The family is not always at this residence, so when that is the case, there can be more flexibility with the housekeeper's schedule. During the Summer months of June and July, candidates can take their two weeks of vacation or at an alternative time when the family is not in residence.
