THE SAFETY OF OUR PROVIDERS AND THE FAMILIES THEY SERVE IS OUR TOP PRIORITY. LEARN HOW.
Today’s parents are busier than ever, taking care of their families, running businesses, and building their careers, all while dealing with an ongoing pandemic that feels like it’ll never end.
If your family is starting to feel overwhelmed by it all, it could be time to hire a nanny housekeeper.
As the name suggests, a nanny housekeeper is a household staff member who takes care of both nanny and housekeeping duties.
Typically, a nanny housekeeper is responsible for older children who do not need a full-time nanny. So, the nanny housekeeper can spend part of their time attending to nanny duties and the rest of the time doing household chores.
Also called a hybrid nanny, a nanny housekeeper is an ideal person to hire if your family needs both childcare and housekeeping. That way, you can end the workday in a clean home with children who have been looked after by a professional nanny.
Could your family benefit from hiring a nanny housekeeper? See if you recognize any of these signs.
1. You can’t keep up with housework
“I’ll take care of that this weekend,” you tell yourself. Then the weekend comes and goes in a flurry of activities. Soon, your housework has piled up to the point that you don’t even know where to start.
Relax. A nanny housekeeper can help you stay on top of housework so you don’t get overwhelmed by the end of the week. By tackling chores daily, a nanny housekeeper will keep your home organized and clean so you can enjoy the weekend instead of worrying about fitting cleaning into your already packed schedule.
2. You can feel your quality family time slipping away
Who wants to spend all their free time doing chores? Nobody! You should be spending your valuable free time building memories with your family instead of nagging your kids about homework or vacuuming after dinner.
In addition to taking care of daily household chores, a nanny housekeeper can get your kids to and from school and activities as well as help them with homework. That way, you can finish your workday and spend the rest of the evening relaxing and enjoying time with your family.
3. You want to hire staff without bringing too many people into your home
In today’s world, families understandably don’t want to let more people into their homes than necessary. A nanny housekeeper can fill two important staffing roles while only bringing one additional person into your home.
4. Your family is on edge
We’re living in stressful times. Trying to keep up with housework, virtual schooling, kids’ activities, work, and your personal life can feel overwhelming and lead to a family that’s constantly on edge. You might feel additional stress when you leave your home office only to enter a messy house if you’re working from home.
Once you hire a nanny housekeeper, your family will instantly feel that stress slip away. Turning household tasks over to a professional will help you get more time back into the day that you can spend working, bonding with your family, or indulging in much-needed self-care.
5. You miss spending time with your partner
It’s 9:00 at night, and the kids are finally asleep. What do you do? For many busy parents, the answer is “laundry” or “clean the kitchen.” Imagine if, instead, the answer was “spend quality time with my partner.”
When you hire a nanny housekeeper, you'll have more time in your day so you can wind down at night and spend the evening reconnecting with your partner instead of cleaning.
