Who you are:
Youre a planner. You think ahead and pride yourself on ensuring everything runs as smoothly as possible for your family and loved ones. You effortlessly plan birthday parties, family gatherings, and playdates so everyone can have fun.
Youre responsive. Youre quick to respond to friends, family, and life admin tasks as they come up. Youre also responsive to reality: you can adjust quickly when things dont go as planned, and new challenges are exciting, even if theyre sometimes a little daunting.
You like being helpful. You pride yourself on helping your friends out with a recommendation for a doctor, helping them think through what on earth theyre going to feed their kids this week, and helping that mom at pickup remember when that camp registration deadline is. Youre tuned into your local community, and you know all the best spots and recommendations (and if you dont, you know exactly where to look). It brings you joy when you can help another mom feel less frazzled.
Other people ask you how you do it. You have meals, grocery shopping, and birthday party planning down to a science. And you make it look easy (even though we know its a lot of work).
Youre excited about a flexible, part-time work schedule. Maybe your kids are in school or maybe youd love to squeeze in some work while theyre napping or after bedtime. Either way, you have some time and youd like to use your know-how and get paid for it.
What will you do?
Complete tasks for Peppermint customers: You might end up making a dentist appointment, figuring out the right venue for a 6-year-olds birthday (with their whole class!), or booking dinner reservations (and a sitter) for a night out!
Be solution-focused: You’re ready to jump in with proactive and creative solutions to each family’s needs while prioritizing what needs to get done and when. You like fast-paced work and are excited to face new challenges and learn something new everyday!
Engage with positive communication: You naturally engage with people in a concise, friendly, and helpful manner. Confident in your written and verbal communication, you can easily respond to real-time texts, messages, emails, and phone calls. Youre also comfortable responding quickly, even to just let someone know youre on it!
Provide empathetic support: You recognize that each interaction is an opportunity to show care and build trust. Like us, you have a genuine passion for making each parents life easier, and it shows!
Be tech savvy: You’ll depend on a host of tools to get your work done. If you aren’t yet familiar with it, you’re ready to jump in and learn.
