Aisha did a wonderful job organising my wardrobe, she’s very thorough and what makes her great to work with is that she genuinely enjoys decluttering and has a knack for making spaces look more organised. So if you’re looking for someone to do detailed organising of your things - Aisha is your girl.

What does a housekeeping service include?

Housekeeping services can include one-off services or regular domestic tasks (daily, weekly, or fortnightly), from cleaning and cooking to even home maintenance. Your housekeeper will bring along all the products and equipment they need to clean and maintain your home - all you need to do is tell them what you need done. Here’s how they can help:


Cleaning 

The most common housekeeping service involves cleaning. This could include general cleaning, like vacuumingmoppingdusting, and bathroom cleaning. Or it might include detail cleaning tasks like couchcurtainfloorfridge, and rug cleaning. Depending on the number of tasks you’d like your housekeeper to complete, they may clean for just an hour, or up to the entire day. Your housekeeper will discuss a time that’s convenient for you, the tasks you need done, and the timeframe it should take to complete these tasks. If needed, they can bring their own cleaning supplies, like a vacuum cleaner and feather duster. 


Organising and tidying 

Many housekeepers offer professional organising services, where they help organise and tidy all areas of your home. This includes desks, filing cabinets, stationery, linen, wardrobes, toys, kitchen cupboards, garage interiors, and more. They’ll pull out all the items, organise them by category, and help you choose what you should keep, donate, or bin. They’ll also help by recommending suitable storage solutions to help you keep your home tidy for longer.


Cooking 

Some housekeepers are available to help with cooking in your home. They might prepare a few snacks, or help prep several meals ahead of time so you don’t have to worry about cooking. Your housekeeper will present menu and recipe options for you to choose from and use your ingredient and kitchen supplies to cook everything in your kitchen. Once they’re done, they’ll store the freshly cooked food (with heating instructions) and clean up any mess.


Laundry

Washing and ironing starting to pile up? Housekeepers can help by putting on loads of washing, hanging clothes, loading the dryer, folding washing, ironing, and even putting it away. They’ll check the care labels to ensure appropriate washing/drying methods are used before they start the process. With some extra help, you’ll be all caught up on the laundry in no time.


Home maintenance

Many housekeepers are skilled in basic household maintenance tasks. But if they’re unable to do the job themselves, they’ll help organise and oversee skilled contractors who can help do repairs and maintenance in and around your home.

My wife and I have 2 kids (two and one year old) so taking care of the house is a challenge. Basically we need a maid once a fortnight to help with the house chores. The tasks will include the following: - Washing and change of bedding - Cleaning kitchen and bathroom - Mop and vacuum - Toy cleanup Ultimately we dont need a professional cleaning team, just one person who can help make our house more organised and liveable. We provide free lunch and infinite supply of barista made coffee :) We are looking to pay around 30 per hour Also I will add photos soon

First off all Adrienne was lovely and a pleasure to deal with In terms of the cleaning she did a very good job, perhaps not to the same level as professional cleaners. In terms of tidying and making things neat and yet easily findable she dis an exceptional job and this is where most professional cleaners are lacking
