About Me
We're a busy, friendly family in Balham, SW London, with two daughters aged 10 and 8 who attend local school. Both parents work full time with flexible office/home arrangements. We're looking for an exceptionally organised, proactive, kind and supportive Family / Household Manager to help keep our household and family life running smoothly.
The role combines household management, family administration and after-school care. You'd be responsible for managing household and family admin (appointments, deliveries, bookings, general organisation), coordinating household maintenance and services, managing the children's busy schedules and school commitments, collecting them from school and taking them to activities, supervising homework, planning and preparing healthy family meals, and keeping on top of household supplies and logistics. Above all, we need someone who can take initiative and anticipate what needs doing.
We're looking for someone exceptionally organised, reliable, practical and proactive, with a genuine enjoyment of family life and working with school-aged children. Experience in family management, household management, personal assistant or nanny roles is ideal. We value excellent communication, good judgement, a positive attitude, kindness and the confidence to work independently. We also have a dog, so comfort around pets would be helpful. Start date: November 2026.
My Requirements
Monday–Friday, approximately 1pm–8pm (flexible — happy to accommodate later starts at 2pm or 3pm if preferred). Key responsibilities include after-school collection, homework supervision, taking the girls to and from after-school activities, meal planning and preparation, and general household and family organisation. We're looking for someone kind, friendly and supportive with the children, who enjoys problem-solving and taking ownership of the day-to-day logistics of a busy family home.
