A Private Household Staffing Agency Built for How Miami Actually Lives

Miami draws a particular kind of principal — founders, executives, entrepreneurs, and high-profile families who have built something significant and want the home to match. A Brickell penthouse that entertains. A Coral Gables estate that runs quietly and well. A Miami Beach residence that needs to be ready at a moment's notice. The households we serve here are not always large, but they are always exacting.

What that requires is not a general staffing agency applying standard recruitment to a specialized field — it requires private service professionals who understand discretion, anticipate needs, and operate at the level the household demands. That is what we place, and that is the standard we hold every candidate to before they ever meet a client.

Bilingual placements

Spanish-English bilingual private service professionals for Miami households where language fluency and cultural understanding are as important as professional experience.

Miami Households

Miami's bilingual households require more than proficiency.

Placing Spanish-English bilingual private service professionals for Miami families — nannies, housekeepers, estate managers, and personal assistants where language fluency and cultural fluency go hand in hand. If bilingual capability is a requirement for your household, we factor it into the search from the beginning.

"The professionals we place in Miami's bilingual households understand that language is only part of it. They understand the cultural expectations of a home where both worlds are present — and they move between them naturally."

Common Questions

Miami Private Household
Staffing FAQs

Miami draws a particular kind of principal — founders, entrepreneurs, executives, and high-profile families who have built something significant and want the home to reflect that. Some have one exceptional address. Others manage multiple residences across South Florida or beyond. What they share is an expectation of service that matches the standard of everything else in their life, and a preference for a household that runs well without requiring their direct involvement. We work exclusively with private households — not commercial properties, not businesses, not staffing platforms. If you are ready to employ your own team and want it done correctly, that is exactly what we do.
Yes. Given Miami's bilingual household culture, we regularly place Spanish-English bilingual private service professionals — from nannies and housekeepers to estate managers and personal assistants. If bilingual capability is a requirement for your household, we factor it into the search criteria from the beginning and verify it directly during the vetting process. Bilingual proficiency in a private household context requires more than conversational fluency — it requires the ability to operate professionally, take direction, and communicate with precision in both languages.
The first step is understanding what the role actually needs to be — and that is often less obvious than it seems. Many first-time household employers come to us with a job title in mind but without a clear picture of the schedule, the scope, or the compensation structure required to attract the right person. Getting that wrong at the start is the most common reason an early placement doesn't hold. We begin every engagement with a consultation designed to define the role correctly before we ever begin recruiting — and we advise on compensation benchmarks, employment structure, and what the Miami market currently looks like for the role you need.
Yes, and this is a common situation among the principals we work with. Many of our Miami clients maintain one or more additional residences — in Palm Beach, Chicago, New York, or abroad — and need staffing that accounts for how the household actually operates across all of them. We advise on role structure for multi-residence households and can place staff who are experienced traveling with a principal or working within a coordinated operation across multiple properties. If your Miami home is one address among several, we will design the search around that reality from the start.
Our clients typically come to us when they are looking for long-term private household staff — or when they have found that service-based solutions like cleaning companies, property management services, or staffing platforms are not providing the level of consistency, discretion, or customization their household requires. They are ready to employ their own team so they can control the quality and standards of work inside their home, and many are looking for staff who can move across multiple properties or travel with them. Whether you have a full team already in place, you are making your first hire, or you are replacing an existing team member, we work with families, principals, and family offices at every stage of that process.
We place the full range of private service roles for Miami households — estate managers, house managers, executive housekeepers, private chefs, personal chauffeurs, personal assistants, nannies, newborn care specialists, butlers, housemen, laundresses, and domestic couples. Bilingual candidates are available across most roles. If the position exists within a private home or estate, we place it.
A house manager focuses on the day-to-day operations of a single residence — coordinating staff, vendors, and the daily logistics of a well-run home. An estate manager typically oversees a more complex household operation: multiple properties, larger staff teams, financial oversight, and the administrative infrastructure of a principal's full residential portfolio. In Miami, where many households include both a primary city residence and a secondary South Florida property, an estate manager is often the right hire for principals whose needs span more than one address. We advise on the correct role structure during your consultation.
A well-structured search typically takes four to six weeks from initiation to placement. Specialized roles — bilingual professionals, senior estate managers, or candidates with very specific experience — may require additional time depending on the depth of the candidate pool required. We always advise beginning your search with adequate lead time and will give you an honest assessment of what is achievable at the start of every engagement.
Privacy, access, and precision. For families hiring directly, posting a role publicly raises visibility and confidentiality concerns most Miami households prefer to avoid. For family offices managing the process on a principal's behalf, privacy may be less of a concern — but access and expertise often are. Family offices are skilled at managing wealth and complex financial structures, but private household staffing is a specialist discipline with its own talent networks, compensation benchmarks, and vetting standards that sit entirely outside that area of practice. A specialized agency provides access to passive, off-market candidates not found on job boards — alongside rigorous vetting, direct reference verification, and compensation guidance that a generalist process cannot replicate.
We serve private households across Miami Beach, Star Island, Venetian Islands, Indian Creek, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Brickell, Bal Harbour, Surfside, Aventura, Fisher Island, Key Biscayne, Pinecrest, and South Miami. Many of the families we work with also maintain residences in Palm Beach, Chicago, New York, or internationally — and we are experienced in coordinating staffing across multiple properties. If your primary or secondary residence falls outside these areas, we are happy to advise on whether your search falls within our network.
