Part-Time Household Assistant

Overview:

StaffBuffalo is working with a private executive household to hire a Part-Time Household Assistant for a flexible, high-impact support role. This opportunity is ideal for someone who understands that maintaining a home is not just about completing tasks, but about creating a sense of ease, rhythm, and consistency in daily life. This role is centered around thoughtful support, helping the home feel calm, organized, and consistently cared for.

The Household Assistant will play a key role in supporting a busy family by handling meal preparation, grocery shopping, light cleaning, laundry, organization, and household errands. This position is best suited for someone who is naturally proactive, takes pride in being helpful, and can step in with minimal direction once routines are established. Personality and mindset are critical. This individual should genuinely enjoy being a supportive presence who lifts burdens and creates flow within the home.

This is a part-time, weekday position of approximately 4 hours per day, Monday through Friday, with occasional flexibility for additional time during heavier meal prep days or when household needs shift. A reliable vehicle will be needed for errands. The right person will bring a calm, easygoing presence, strong attention to detail, and the ability to anticipate needs while maintaining discretion and professionalism.

Responsibilities:

• Prepare simple, healthy meals and assist with light meal planning, including portioning and basic food prep 
  
• Complete grocery shopping, maintain kitchen organization, and ensure the home stays stocked with essentials 
  
• Reset and maintain common living areas so the home feels organized, calm, and ready for the next day 
  
• Manage laundry tasks including washing, folding, and putting away clothing and linens 
  
• Run household errands such as dry cleaning, package handling, and quick store trips 
  
• Monitor and proactively restock household items such as pantry goods, toiletries, and daily-use supplies 
  
• Support general household upkeep such as dishes, trash removal, and maintaining a clean, functional environment
  

Qualifications:

• Previous experience in a household assistant, family assistant, personal assistant, or similar role preferred 
• High school diploma or GED required; hospitality or service-based experience is a plus 
  
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to create and maintain simple systems within a home 
  
• Self-starter who can work independently and take initiative without constant direction 
  
• Easygoing, adaptable personality with a genuine desire to be helpful and supportive 
  
• High level of discretion, professionalism, and trustworthiness in a private household setting 
  
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation required for errands
  

Benefits:

• Target compensation range of $35–$55 per hour, with flexibility for the right long-term fit 
• Consistent weekday schedule, approximately 20 hours per week 
• Opportunity to grow in hours, compensation, and responsibility over time 
• Supportive, respectful household environment with clear expectations and communication 
• Meaningful, hands-on work where your contributions are immediately felt 
• Flexible structure that allows for autonomy once routines are established
