Household Manager vs. Nanny vs. Family Assistant

April 22, 2026 · The Audelle Team · 6 min read

A household manager runs the operations of the home. A nanny is focused on the children. A family assistant supports the parents.

Understanding the distinction is often the difference between a placement that thrives and one that quietly falters within a year.

Audelle helps families define which role — or which blend — actually fits their household.
