Hire household staff in Miami Beach

HomeHire is a self-service marketplace, not an agency: families in Miami Beach describe the work, review profiles and make their own hiring decisions. Free for families until January 2027, and candidates never pay.

South Beach apartments, Mid-Beach towers and North Beach homes create different household routines. In a high-rise, a cleaner or chef may need a booked service lift, loading access and a place to leave supplies; in a house, the brief may center on rooms, outdoor transitions and family laundry instead.

For workers coming from the mainland, the relevant causeway and arrival window belong in the practical discussion. Seasonal occupancy and visiting guests can also change the workload. Explain whether the role continues while the owners travel and whether guest preparation is regular work or an occasional, separately agreed addition.

What household work involves in Miami Beach

Keep household employment distinct from running a short-term rental or building service. Define linen changes, shopping, childcare or meal preparation around your own household, and state who authorizes visitors and deliveries rather than expecting the worker to negotiate access on every shift.

Typical hourly pay in Miami Beach

Annual full-time equivalents use hourly pay × 2,080, rounded to the nearest $1,000, before tax; these are guidance, not a promise of local wages or a replacement for applicable minimum-wage and overtime rules.

US typical range; local pay varies with local wages and minimum-wage rules.

Based on Care.com and US Bureau of Labor Statistics pay data and published household-staff salary surveys, Oct 2026. Actual pay depends on duties, hours and experience.

How to hire directly in Miami Beach

Start with a household brief that names the role, general location, duties, hours and pay. Keep exact addresses, entry codes and children's personal details private; a public listing requires the family's choice to publish.

Review candidate-stated experience, availability and preferences, then request an introduction where the workflow permits it. Interview, discuss references and agree lawful working terms directly; a profile or introduction is not an endorsement.

Families hire directly and do their own checks, including references, identity and right to work. Payroll support is through our partner, subject to confirmed availability.

The hiring family is the employer. HomeHire does not employ household workers, run payroll or hold wages. Worker pay is agreed separately and is never reduced by a HomeHire candidate fee.

Free for families until January 2027, and candidates never pay.
