About Us

We are a busy family of three living centrally in Edmonton (T6G 1A4), near the university and across the river from downtown. We have one daughter (age 9) and a senior cat (16 years old) who requires regular vet visits every 3 months. Both parents are physicians with demanding work hours. We love our neighborhood, which is walkable and close to our daughter's school and before/after school care program. Without extended family nearby, we are looking for a reliable and proactive House Manager to provide household support and help our home run smoothly.

  • Handle package pickup, mail sorting, and deliveries.
  • Mileage reimbursed for errands.

Meal Preparation

  • Prep foods (wash/chop vegetables and ingredients for meals, batch cook basics like hard boiled eggs, freezer meals).
  • Grocery shop for fresh ingredients and pantry restock.
  • Follow dietary needs: gluten-free meals are essential.
  • Maintain a clean, organized kitchen.
  • One family member is gluten free but it is not a gluten free household.

Laundry & Linen Care

  • Wash, dry, fold, and organize family laundry.
  • Iron and steam clothing; prepare outfits as needed.
  • Rotate and refresh linens and towels.
  • Keep laundry area tidy and stocked.

  • Ensure pet supplies are stocked and organized.

Vendor & Property Oversight

  • Schedule/supervise service providers (cleaners, contractors, landscapers).
  • Research, coordinate, and oversee maintenance and repairs.
  • Manage seasonal resets (e.g., garage organization).

Family Support & Child Assistance

  • Provide occasional backup childcare (e.g., school pick-up, playdates).
  • Support date nights with evening babysitting.
  • Assist with school-related prep (clothing, gear, lunch coordination if needed).

Deep Cleaning & Special Projects

  • Tackle deep-cleaning projects (fridge, oven, cupboards, baseboards).
  • Clean humidifiers, washing machines, air purifiers monthly.
  • Manage seasonal organizing (holiday décor, sports gear, storage).

Who We're Looking For
