A wonderful family known to the agency, based in Bath, is looking for a live-out Housekeeper to join their household two days per week. This is a hands-on, varied role covering cooking, small household errands, laundry, and general organisation for a busy family home -- ideal for someone who enjoys running a smooth, well-organised household without deep cleaning, since a separate cleaning team already covers that weekly.
The house is considerably larger than a typical London property, giving plenty of space to manage. The children's father works in London two nights a week, and their mother occasionally travels to London for the day, which is when school pick-up support is most likely to be needed. The family is looking for someone reliable and organised who can bring structure to meals, laundry, and day-to-day household admin, freeing up the parents' time around their own busy schedules.

Key Responsibilities:
- Cooking and batch cooking for the family, including planning and organising a weekly menu
- Food shopping and household provisioning
- Ironing and laundry
- Tidying and organising wardrobes (the house has a separate cleaning team for deep cleaning, so this role is focused on organisation rather than heavy cleaning)
- General household admin and chores
- Running errands, such as post office trips
- Occasional school pick-up (school is 5 minutes from the house; pick-up is needed particularly on days when the children's mother is in London for the day and unable to collect them -- school finishes between 4pm and 5pm)
- Preparing and giving the girls their dinner on days worked

Ideal Candidate:
- Confident, capable cook -- comfortable batch cooking and planning a family menu
- Highly organised, with strong attention to household admin and detail
- Reliable and flexible, particularly around occasional school pick-up needs
- Comfortable working independently within a larger family home
- Happy to take on some animal care responsibilities in around 6 months' time, once the family's Labrador puppy arrives
- Local to Bath strongly preferred
