Why a Family Assistant through TFA makes the difference for your family

The role of a Family Assistant is becoming ever better known, especially among busy families who need calm, structure and overview in their daily lives. But what does this role really involve? Is it a Nanny, a Personal Assistant, domestic help or perhaps a combination of all of these? At heart, a Family Assistant is an all round support for the family: someone who, with overview, dedication and discretion, makes daily life run more smoothly so that parents find more balance between work, family and relaxation.

Tasks and responsibilities

A Family Assistant takes on a wide range of tasks, depending on the needs of the family. These can vary from managing the calendar, doing the shopping and coordinating appointments to light administrative support or preparing healthy meals. A Family Assistant also takes care of practical matters such as organising children’s parties, booking travel, keeping in touch with external service providers or handling parcels. In many cases this role is indispensable in families where both parents work full time or travel a lot.

Involvement with the children

Although it is not necessarily a caring role like that of a Nanny, a Family Assistant is often in regular contact with the children. She may collect the children from school, accompany them to sports activities or help create a structured daily routine. There is also great attention to a safe, stable and positive atmosphere at home. The combination of caring nature and organisational talent makes this role unique: you are supportive and responsible, with an eye for detail and for the dynamics of family life.

Core values of a Family Assistant

A good Family Assistant is flexible, independent, reliable and above all proactive. You think ahead, deal with matters before they become a problem and know exactly when to step forward and when to stay in the background. At a time when families have to keep more and more balls in the air, a Family Assistant is the quiet force that holds everything together: professional, warm and indispensable.
