the Southeast
Before
Two full-time working parents in the Southeast with three children — elementary school, preschool and a baby — and an activity calendar spanning softball, tutoring, music, scouts, martial arts and soccer. The brief arrived with its own schedule, mapped to the quarter hour.
Why they chose Sage Haus
They knew exactly what the afternoons needed; what they did not have was the person. The precision of the ask was the tell: this family had been running the role themselves for years and could describe it to the minute.
Sage Haus found their house manager
The schedule, staffed: the mid-afternoon household block, the bus pickup, the transitions, then activities and dinner prep — every weekday. Matched in six weeks from the kickoff call.
