What is a Household Manager Services?

 A Household Manager is like the COO of your home — keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes so you can focus on work, family, and enjoying your time together. While they usually don’t provide direct childcare, they bring structure, organization, and consistency to the household, which benefits everyone. 

Household managers oversee the operations of the home and often act as the point person for staff and vendors. 

Typical duties may include:

• Managing daily household operations
• Supervising staff (nannies, housekeepers, gardeners, vendors, etc.)
• Scheduling maintenance, repairs, and services
• Organizing household inventory and restocking supplies
• Managing family calendars and coordinating logistics
• Planning and overseeing events, gatherings, or celebrations
• Handling bills, budgets, or light bookkeeping
• Ensuring clear communication between family members and household staff

Most household managers work full-time, with hours tailored to the family’s needs and the size of the household.

Typical Hours: 35–50 hours per week, usually during standard business hours (e.g., 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM).

Flexibility: Some roles may include evenings, weekends, or travel — especially for events, projects, or family schedules that need extra support.

Daily Flow: Their day often begins with reviewing calendars and priorities, then managing vendors, errands, or staff, and wrapping up by ensuring the household is prepped for the next day.
