A family of four, on the Upper East Side, needs to hire a part-time Housekeeper/Cook to help maintain their apartment and prepare simple, healthy family meals. This is a true 50/50 position. Housekeeping responsibilities include: the daily upkeep and organization of the home, deep cleaning, family laundry, and helping to ensure the apartment remains tidy. For the first few months, cooking responsibilities will include preparing a simple lunch for one teenager as well as dinner for the family; longer term, the cooking portion of the role will primarily focus on family dinners. Meals should be straightforward, balanced, fresh, and nutritious. Dinners are family-style meals for four, with an emphasis on quality proteins, fresh vegetables, wholesome ingredients, and approachable dishes the entire family will enjoy. Lunch is eaten around 12:30/1pm and dinner is typically around 6pm. One child has Celiac disease so all main dishes must be strictly gluten-free. There is an immunocompromised child in the home, so the ideal candidate must be fully vaccinated and comfortable temporarily wearing a mask. Applicants must be comfortable communicating in English. The family primarily needs coverage Monday through Thursday, with occasional Fridays. The initial schedule will be approximately 11:30am to 7pm through at least October, potentially longer, and will later transition to less hours, approximately 1pm to 7pm. Salary range: $35–40/hr. Immediate start.
