Family and Lifestyle Focused Content Writer

Objective

Support clients in scaling high-quality, on-brand content that reduces the mental load for modern families. The writer will help translate existing ideas into clear, empathetic, and actionable content across email, guides, and social channels.

Profile Overview

Client is an AI-powered family organization app designed to function as a “chief of staff for families.” As a growing startup, the team needs a writer who can seamlessly adopt an established brand voice and create content that resonates with busy parents, especially moms, without sounding condescending, pandering, or overly generic.

The ideal candidate has experience in consumer-focused content, strong brand voice adaptation skills, and an understanding of family dynamics and mental load topics.

Scope

• Starting at ~5 hours/week (22 hours/month minimum), with flexibility to scale
• Potential to increase hours during peak seasons (e.g., back-to-school, holidays)
• Ongoing monthly retainer with a 6-month initial commitment
• Direct collaboration with the founding team

Responsibilities

• Write and edit lifecycle and engagement emails (via OneSignal)
• Develop long-form guides (e.g., seasonal or partner-driven content)
• Draft social media captions (primarily Instagram, with potential LinkedIn expansion)
• Support blog content (both SEO-driven and brand-forward pieces)
• Translate internal ideas into polished, publish-ready content
• Maintain and replicate client’s established tone and voice
• Collaborate on content planning and iterate based on feedback

Skills and Qualifications

• Proven experience in content writing, preferably in consumer, parenting, or lifestyle spaces
• Strong grasp of brand voice and tone replication
• Ability to write about sensitive topics (e.g., mental load, family roles) with nuance
• Experience with email marketing and conversion-focused writing
• Familiarity with SEO content best practices (without sacrificing readability)
• Comfort using AI tools as a support (not a replacement) for writing
• Parent (especially a current mom) or deep familiarity with the target audience
• Ability to work collaboratively and adapt quickly in a startup environment
