• Running errands and handling miscellaneous family logistics
• Tracking deadlines and ensuring follow-through

I am looking for someone who:

• Is reliable. This is a job where consistency matters, if you are sick do not come but otherwise I expect consistency and reliability.
• Notices what needs to be done before being asked
• Remembers important appointments and deadlines
• Handles school paperwork and follows through on details
• Books travel and manages logistics independently
• Ensures the kids are engaged
• Coordinates with therapists and service providers

Most importantly, I am looking for someone who helps create enough bandwidth for me to be fully present as a lawyer, business owner, and mother.
