This easy-going family is full of happy, silly, and friendly humans! They are a very close-knit family with four kids, B6, G5, G3 and G1. This super-mom does it all including homeschooling her two oldest and needs a do-it-all type person to tag-team the day with her. Dad travels a lot for work, but does work from home when he’s in town. As a family they love music, hiking, riding bikes, playing in their pool, and being active in general. They are looking for a detail-oriented person who takes initiative, but also has a great balance of co-working with mom. They work hard but also don’t take life too seriously and aim to have fun along the way, if you have a good sense of humor, you’ll feel right at home here.
