A little bit about us
Hi! We're the Poteats — a busy, blended family of eight living in Candler, NC. We're looking for someone who wants to become a real partner to our family long-term, not just fill a role. If you're the kind of person who likes being needed, thrives in a little chaos, and wants to feel like part of our family - keep reading!
The Role:
I'm a full-time working mom of six kids (ages 5 to 16) and I need a right-hand person to help me manage our household. This is part household assistant, part childcare, part "help me keep all the plates spinning." The role is up to 30 hours/week at $25/hour to start, with room to grow.
Proposed Schedule:
Monday through Friday, [phone number hidden] PM. Mondays and Tuesdays are the most important days for after-school coverage. The midday hours (12–3) are for staying ahead of the house — and then when kids start getting home, it shifts to pickups, homework help, snacks, and keeping the afternoon on track.
Household Side (12 – 3ish):
-Light housekeeping — keeping common areas picked up, dishes, wiping down kitchens and bathrooms
-Laundry — washing, folding, putting away (with 8 people, the laundry never ends)
-Organizing — kids' rooms, pantry, mudroom, closets, the random pile that appears on the counter every 48 hours
-Meal prep — prepping ingredients, getting a crockpot going, packing lunch supplies
-Errands — grocery pickup, returns, dropping things off at school (we have a family minivan you're welcome to use)
After-School Side (3:30 – 5:30):
-School pickups and drop-offs
-Homework supervision and help
-Snacks, activities, and keeping the after-school tornado contained
-Driving kids to practices or activities as needed
About Us:
Both parents work full-time — one in-office, one from home with occasional travel. Our house is lively, two labradoodles, and there's always something going on. We're easygoing and not looking for perfection — just someone dependable who takes initiative and genuinely wants to be part of how our family runs.

A little bit about us
We are searching for a part time nanny (two days a week or a nanny share for three days a week) for our two-year-old daughter Violet. Dates are currently listed as Monday and Tuesday but can be flexible to accommodate a nanny’s schedule or additional family’s schedule.
Violet is a curious, loving, and active little girl. She loves to be outside, listen to music, pretend play, and arts and crafts.
We are looking for someone that enjoys fostering a child’s interests and will be engaging with her throughout the day. We would prefer for this person to be CPR and First Aid certified and COVID vaccinated.
We do cloth diaper, so must be comfortable with that – we are working on potty training! We also have a very friendly, medium sized dog at home. She requires very little but will just need to be let outside from time to time.
In full disclosure, we are on a daycare waitlist and will enroll her as soon as a spot is available. Though we have been told that at this time, that will most likely be not until winter.
If you feel you might be a good fit, please reach out. We would love to hear from you and talk more!

A little bit about us
Nanny needed for our sweet 11-month-old in the West Asheville/Candler area.
Ideally, we're looking for Monday-Wednesday from 9-5. If you are looking for different weekdays or more hours, let's talk. We will try to make it work for the right person!
A little about our son: He is about as easygoing as a baby can get. He loves snuggles, playing, being read to, and going for walks around the neighborhood. We also have a playscape out back that he is obsessed with. He's still taking two naps a day, about an hour each. In the time you're with us, he'll likely take 2 bottles, eat lunch, and a snack.
About us (the parents): I work from home and largely keep to myself in my office (my job keeps me very busy!). It's also important to me that I respect your space while you're here and not distract my son/y'all's time together. My husband travels to different hospitals around the area for his work. He's sometimes off early and when that happens, we often will let you leave early (paid)! Lastly, we have a large, sweet dog named Jax! So must be dog-friendly 🙂
Start date as early as Monday, March 31.
Happy to answer any additional questions you might have!
