Family Assistants & Household Managers | Organized, Professional Home Support for Busy Families
Simplify Your Home with a Trusted Family Assistant or House Manager
The Value of Household Support — Why Expert Guidance Matters
Running a busy household requires consistent structure and reliable support. Between careers, school schedules, meals, activities, errands, and home maintenance, even highly organized families can feel stretched thin.
Hello Nanny!® connects families with a nationwide network of career family assistants and professional house managers—household experts skilled in organization, logistics, family coordination, and operational management. Our consultative approach guides you through every step, including sourcing candidates, vetting backgrounds, defining responsibilities, and establishing clear boundaries for long‑term success.
We also help you determine whether your family benefits most from:
- a dedicated on‑site family assistant,
- a nanny/assistant or nanny/house manager hybrid role, or
- a virtual household assistant who supports you remotely.
Understanding Household Support Roles
Family Assistant
A Family Assistant blends childcare support with household organization. Their responsibilities often include:
- managing schedules and family calendars
- running errands and coordinating logistics
- helping with communication, reminders, and follow‑ups
- supporting school, activities, and daily routines
- completing light organizational or administrative tasks
Family Assistants act as the family’s reliable, go‑to support person—keeping day‑to‑day life running smoothly.
House Manager
A House Manager oversees broader household operations and long‑term planning. Their responsibilities can include:
- managing home maintenance and repairs
- coordinating vendors and service providers
- planning calendars, events, and appointments
- organizing household systems and improvements
- overseeing household projects and seasonal needs
- House Managers help create efficient, stress‑free systems that keep the home operating at its best.
Blended & Hybrid Roles
Some families benefit from hybrid positions such as a:
- Nanny + Family Assistant
- Nanny + House Manager
- Family Assistant + Household Manager
These integrated roles provide childcare support combined with household administration and organization. Our team helps you determine whether a blended position fits your needs—or whether certain responsibilities are better handled by a dedicated Virtual Assistant. We also guide you in defining boundaries, setting expectations, and structuring the role sustainably.
