Personal Virtual Assistant
Your Time Is Valuable. Spend Less of It on Life Admin.
When you run a business, personal admin doesn't stop, it just gets pushed into evenings and weekends. A personal virtual assistant takes care of bookings, appointments, research and everyday errands that can be done online, so your free time actually feels free.
Service overview
Personal Virtual Assistant, Explained
For business owners and busy professionals, the line between work and personal life is thin. The dentist appointment that needs rescheduling, the gift you meant to order, the insurance renewal to compare, the family trip to plan: none of it is hard, but all of it takes time and headspace you don't have.
A personal virtual assistant handles the remote side of your personal life with the same care and discretion as business tasks. They research options, make bookings, keep track of renewals and important dates, and handle the back-and-forth emails and forms that come with everyday life.
Many of our clients combine personal and business support with one assistant, which makes sense: the person who manages your work calendar is ideally placed to protect your personal commitments too.

How Bravura VA supports the workflow
Structured From Day One
Personal support requires trust, so we're careful about boundaries from the start. We agree exactly which tasks your assistant handles, what they can book or buy without asking, and how sensitive information (like personal accounts or family details) is accessed and stored.
Because Bravura VA works remotely, personal support covers anything that can be done online or by phone and email. For tasks that need someone physically present, your assistant can coordinate local providers on your behalf.
Human oversight & AI
Smart Tools. Human Responsibility.
AI apps can suggest restaurants or draft a reminder, but personal admin is full of preferences that matter: the hotel you didn't like last time, the relative who needs a phone call rather than a text, the budget you'd rather not exceed. A personal assistant remembers those things and applies them with care, using approved tools only where they genuinely save time.

FAQ
Personal Virtual Assistant FAQs
No. Our assistants work remotely from Nairobi, Kenya. They can handle anything done online or by phone and email, and coordinate local providers for in-person tasks.
We recommend using a password manager with shared vaults, so your assistant can access specific accounts without seeing or storing passwords elsewhere. Access is limited to what's needed.
Yes. Many clients use one assistant for both, which works well because the same person sees your full calendar.
Not necessarily. Personal tasks are often added to a part-time business arrangement rather than being a standalone service.
