What we need is someone who can help make the household run smoothly through **excellent cooking, full housekeeping, laundry, groceries, organization, errands and family support**.### Cooking is the #1 priorityWe want a genuinely excellent, experienced **home cook**. No culinary training required — just the ability to make outstanding family meals from fresh ingredients.We enjoy Mexican, Italian, meat-and-potatoes-style meals, fresh produce and healthy, hearty food made mostly from scratch.You'll grocery shop regularly, prepare dinner for 5:00 PM, prep school lunches, easy breakfasts, fresh fruit/veg and healthy snacks, introduce new meals, learn the tastes of four growing boys, and keep the fridge/pantry clean, organized and stocked.Cooking is usually for 6, but often 8–10 when friends or family are around. Baking is a bonus.Housekeeping & LaundryThis is a **full-housekeeping role**: daily general cleaning plus rotating deep-clean tasks.Responsibilities include kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, finished basement, floors, vacuuming, mopping, dusting, tidying, weekly bedding changes, towels and household linens.Laundry includes washing, drying, folding and putting away household laundry and the boys' clothing.Household SupportWe want someone who notices what the household needs before we have to ask.That includes keeping supplies stocked, organizing closets/pantry/fridge, monitoring kids' clothing and shoe sizes,
