Housekeeper / Family Assistant – Private Home
Hero HQ
Posted 3 days ago
Location: Mount Martha, Mornington Peninsula
Hours: Monday to Friday, approx. 20 hours per week (ideally mornings, but we can be flexible)
Employment Type: Part-time
Start Date: ASAP
We’re a busy, fast-paced family of five living in Mount Martha, with three energetic kids aged 2, 5 and 8. Life is full, fun and always moving, and we’re searching for a warm, capable and detail-oriented housekeeper who can become a trusted helping hand and a valued part of our family.
This isn’t just a job to us — we’re looking for someone with high standards, who takes pride in their work, enjoys being around children, and brings a calm, organised presence to our home. Someone who’s proactive, dependable and wants to be with one family long-term — an extra pair of hands during the week, and over time, an extension of our family.
About the Role:
You’ll be responsible for maintaining the home, supporting with daily routines, and helping create a well-run, happy household.
Your tasks might include:
Cleaning and maintaining the home (double-storey) to a high standard
Laundry: washing, folding, ironing, linen changes
General tidying and home organisation (clothes, shoes, toys, school bags)
Light cooking and meal preparation, including school lunches
Grocery shopping, pantry organisation and occasional errands
Decluttering and maintaining organised spaces like wardrobes, cupboards and the linen press
We’re looking for someone who:
Has experience working as a housekeeper or in a similar role (minimum 2 years)
Holds high standards of cleanliness, order and presentation
Is caring, reliable, honest and trustworthy
Takes initiative and can manage tasks independently
Loves bringing calm and structure to busy family homes
Genuinely wants a stable, long-term position with one family
What you’ll need:
Police Check and Working with Children Check (or willingness to get them)
Two professional references
ABN preferred but not essential
We’re not looking for a cleaning company — this is a deeply personal role. We hope to find someone kind, committed and skilled, who wants to invest in a meaningful position and become part of our family life.

Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
