Overview / About the Family
A warm and busy family in Lakeville, CT is seeking a dependable, detail-oriented live-in Housekeeper/House Manager to keep their 4,000-square-foot home running smoothly and support the daily rhythm of the household. This is primarily a home-focused role, with one full day each week set aside for a thorough deep clean and lighter upkeep throughout the rest of the week, paired with warm, attentive care for the family's three school-age children (ages 10, 8, and 8). The ideal candidate is someone who takes initiative, anticipates what the household needs before being asked, and is genuinely excited to become a lasting, trusted part of family life. Given the rural setting, on-site housing in a separate rental property is provided, and a reliable personal vehicle is required.

Responsibilities:

• Clean and maintain the entire 4,000 sq ft home, with one full day each week dedicated to deep cleaning
• Handle daily kitchen tidying, wipe-downs, and general household upkeep
• Manage and coordinate household logistics, including the children's schedules
• Run household errands and drive the children to activities and appointments
• Provide attentive, nurturing care for three school-age children (ages 10, 8, and 8)
• Prepare simple, kid-friendly meals (e.g., chicken nuggets, mac and cheese)
• Provide occasional overnight care (approximately twice per month) when the parents travel

Requirements:

• Prior professional experience in both housekeeping and childcare
• Highly organized, dependable, and able to work independently with minimal direction
• Warm, loving, and flexible, with a genuine enjoyment of working with school-age children
• Valid driver's license, clean driving record, and a reliable personal vehicle
• Able to provide 3–5 professional references

Upon submitting this form, you will be considered for any suitable positions, so there is no need to complete multiple applications.
