A Personal Assistant focuses on an individual’s lifestyle, appointments, travel, errands and personal administration. A Family Assistant coordinates family schedules, school communication, household errands and routines, while an Executive Assistant supports business calendars, correspondence, meetings, travel and professional priorities.

Yes. When a principal’s personal and professional lives overlap, an experienced assistant may successfully coordinate both. We define priorities, boundaries, availability and reporting expectations clearly so the combined role remains focused and manageable.

No. Family assistance and childcare are distinct responsibilities. If caregiving, transportation or supervision is required, those expectations are defined explicitly during the search so candidates understand the complete scope of the position.

Yes. The appropriate arrangement depends on the responsibilities, schedule, level of availability and needs of the household or principal. We help define a structure that is practical for both the client and the professional.

We look for relevant experience, sound judgment, discretion, organization, communication and consistent follow-through. The strongest candidate is not simply the most polished on paper, but the person whose capabilities and working style align with your needs.

Timelines vary according to the scope of the position, compensation, schedule, location and specificity of the household’s requirements. Our priority is to identify a genuinely aligned long-term fit rather than rush the household into a placement. Following the initial consultation and completed intake, we establish the search criteria and provide a clearer expectation for the search based on the individual role.

We begin by understanding where support is currently needed, what is consuming the most time and how the principal or family prefers to communicate. From there, we develop a clear role profile addressing responsibilities, schedule, reporting structure, boundaries and priorities.
