Family Assistant needed in Atherton $140-$160,000
Only candidates currently residing on the Peninsula, within a 10–15 mile radius of Menlo Park, will be considered for this role. A warm and private family is seeking a thoughtful, detail-oriented, and highly organized Personal Assistant to support the day-to-day flow of their busy household. The ideal candidate will be proactive, dependable, and service-minded, with a strong track record of helping families manage schedules, logistics, and daily operations. This is a hands-on role involving a variety of responsibilities. The Assistant will help coordinate calendars, appointments, school and activity schedules, and domestic and international travel. The position also includes running errands (grocery shopping, dry cleaning, returns), managing household organization, and ensuring essential supplies are always stocked. Additional duties include booking appointments and reservations, handling personal correspondence, and occasionally assisting with light administrative or tech-related tasks. While this is not a supervisory role, the Assistant will work closely with existing household staff, including a chef and housekeeper, to ensure the home runs smoothly. There is no nanny in the home, so this role also includes helping with after-school pickups, driving to sports and activities, and light homework supervision. The ideal candidate is warm, discreet, professional, and resourceful, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to anticipate needs. A calm demeanor, flexibility, and a can-do attitude are essential. Previous experience supporting a private household as a nanny and/or family assistant is strongly preferred. Candidates must have at least 5 years of recent, full-time experience in a similar role within a busy, high-net-worth household. Familiarity with smart home systems, basic budgeting or expense tracking, and excellent organizational skills are highly valued. This is a wonderful opportunity to work with a kind, down-to-earth family who values loyalty, discretion, and long-term references. Salary DOE, $140-$160,000.
