A warm and active family of three in Roslyn Heights is looking for a dependable and proactive Family Assistant to join their household. The family has a 3-year-old son who attends school until 4 pm each day. This role will focus on family support, light housekeeping, and after-school childcare.

Responsibilities:

Household Support (Before 4 pm):

• Perform light housekeeping tasks to keep the home tidy and organized (e.g., tidying up common areas, wiping surfaces, loading/unloading the dishwasher, and organizing toys or closets).
• Handle laundry for the family, including washing, folding, and putting away clothing and linens.
• Run occasional errands such as picking up small items or handling returns, though the family uses a grocery delivery service for main shopping.
• Assist in meal prep or chopping ingredients for simple dinners (family meals will follow a Kosher diet, so experience is a plus but willingness to learn is welcomed).

Childcare (After 4 pm):

• Pick up the family’s 3-year-old from school and bring him to any scheduled activities or back home for dinner.
• Spend quality time engaging him in fun activities, either at home or around town (e.g., park trips, library visits, or picking up a snack).
• Help prepare and serve simple meals for the child and family, adhering to their Kosher dietary guidelines.

Additional Details:
A dedicated housekeeper will visit the home 1-2 days per week to handle deep cleaning and larger tasks, so your focus will be on maintaining day-to-day order and helping the household run smoothly.

Ideal Candidate:
The family is looking for someone organized, reliable, and able to take initiative. The right person will enjoy balancing childcare with household duties, and bring a positive, proactive attitude to the role.
