Odd Jobs in Mountain View, CA

Hello! We live in Mountain View and we just had our second child one month ago. We are looking for a mother's helper while I'll be home on maternity leave, ideally for 3 hours a day, 5 days a week (Mon-Fri), in the mornings, but we are flexible with the schedule. Our 4-year-old goes to preschool, so I will need help just with the baby and house chores, such as laundry, dishes, tidying up, organizing, and occasionally watching the baby while I run short errands. Big plus if you can occasionally cook too! We can potentially extend the hours as the baby grows and maybe turn it into a full time position once I go back to work, if both parties are interested.
