About the Role

I’m looking for a reliable, detail-oriented VA with US house manager experience to take ownership of recurring household logistics, research, and scheduling for a busy family. This is not admin/data-entry work — it requires good judgment, initiative, and the ability to function like a live to-do list: proactively reminding me what needs attention rather than waiting to be asked.

What You’ll Do
•Order items from Amazon and manage household purchasing
•Clean up and fully manage my Gmail inbox (sorting, flagging, responding on my behalf where appropriate)
•Check registration/enrollment status on sports and school websites
•Manage a shared family calendar and keep a running task list up to date
•Research and compare options (camps, programs, services) and present a clean shortlist
•Research travel, book hotels/flights, and make reservations
•Schedule appointments via phone/email on my behalf
•Send scheduling or reminder texts for tasks that can’t be handled online
•Proactively flag deadlines and upcoming to-dos — act as my ongoing reminder system
•Ad hoc research and errands as they come up

What I’m Looking For
•House manager or household/family assistant experience with a US-based family (required)
•Specific experience with Amazon ordering/account management, Google Calendar, and full Gmail inbox management (required)
•Strong written English and comfortable making phone calls to US-based businesses/offices
•Proactive — brings me options and reminders, not just raw information
•Must have a phone able to make/receive calls and texts from a US number
•Reliable and responsive, even with flexible hours

How to Apply
Please send:
1. A short intro about your VA experience
2. Your availability and preferred hours
3. One example of a time you had to research/compare options and make a recommendation
