Let’s Get Started

A personal assistant supports both your personal and professional life as a busy individual—juggling errands, scheduling, travel, and more—whereas a traditional office assistant typically works onsite at a company to support business-specific tasks. At The Middle, our assistants are part‑time, freelance, and flexible—no full‑time or on‑call commitment.

We want you to feel confident in your hire, which is why we allow unlimited free interviews before you make a decision.

Our replacement period provides time for 1 week of training and 1 week of evaluation to make sure your hire is the right fit.

If you’re exploring this option, the answer is yes! Even just a few hours of help per week can make a big difference. We offer flexible options with no minimums or rigid plans—ideal for people in Los Angeles, New York City, and Chicago.

At The Middle, your assistant isn’t just a one-time helper or a full-time hire. We aim to pair you with someone for the long haul—an independent contractor who adapts to your changing needs week to week.

Not at all! While the term might evoke images of CEOs or movie stars, The Middle’s personal assistants are here for anyone who's busy and wants more time for what matters—whether that’s business, family, or personal pursuits.
