| Just talked to a family who wants me to be their nanny 3 days a week, and home manager 2 days a week. I've only ever been a nanny. What responsibilities does a home manager have? I know it's not cleaning, as they have a housekeeper. |

it depends on the employer.
Ask for a job description. They may need to think about it and create one. |

Here's an example of things I need from a house manager:
- greet window guy and get estimate from him - pick up medication at CVS - wrap gift for this weekends birthday party - put away dog food that arrived by mail - arrange for the storage guys to come pick up boxes - return library books due Monday - find out when DD's dr appt is - lost the appt card before inputting it - order wine to be delivered for party - ask nanny to take younger DD to ballet class to try it again |

| I am a nanny who also manages the house. That does NOT include any kind of housework. |

| Make sure they don't mean housekeeper |

What's wrong with being housekeeper? |

Nothing if that is what you are. OP is a nanny and a house manager and that does not entail any housekeeping. |
