Urban
the Southeast
Before
Two full-time working parents in the Southeast with a newborn and a toddler at home — and an older child whose shared-custody schedule lives in another state, which puts the airport on the family calendar every month.
Why they chose Sage Haus
The brief was continuity with travel built in: a household that keeps running through the fly-out weeks, and hands-on help getting everyone to and from the airport.
Sage Haus found their house manager
A continuity scope: the home reset and restocked around the custody rhythm, laundry and meals held steady, airport runs covered, and the baseline kept so every return is to a running house. Matched in five weeks from the kickoff call.
