NEW MEMBER PROFILE: My Household Managed

My Household Managed is a domestic staffing agency providing long-term placements for household and estate staffing throughout Chicagoland.

Our placement services include but are not limited to: nannies, household managers, family assistants, personal assistants, private chefs, housekeepers, chauffeurs, executive assistants, estate managers, and more.

My Household Managed's mission is to not only place the highest quality employees, but to close the information gap for families and household staff during the job placement process and beyond. We believe that employee happiness and job satisfaction will ensure career longevity to best benefit our clients. 

As an experienced house manager, nanny, and former recruiter, I founded My Household Managed with over 13 years of experience in private households and a goal to fill an unmet need in the market. 

My Household Managed is passionate about providing professional, white-glove quality service to families to create ease and simplicity in their lives and connecting them to the right domestic staff that will allow them to live the lifestyle they deserve.

What makes your business unique?

It is a true passion of mine to connect the right people together for the right reasons. We often work with family offices, high net worth (HNW) families, and ultra-high net worth individuals (UHNWI) in Chicago and many of our candidates have experience working for celebrities in large estates. We also work with traditional households and help families hire their first nanny or housekeeper. No two days are the same!

What’s your favorite part of the West Loop?

As a former nanny, my favorite part of West Loop is of course the amazing parks that they have to offer. As a resident my favorite part is the endless array of restaurants and shops that keep appearing  - I can never seem to try them all!
