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.

​We are looking for a proactive, friendly woman to help keep our home tidy!

Lucille, is excellent. She helped us out so much today and I'll definitely be asking her for more help. Her attention to detail and kind manner made working with her so easy. Thank you

Please include your detailed experience for this position in your response. I will consider all applications that match my needs. am seeking a reliable, confident and highly experienced person who truly enjoys cleaning to take over the cleaning, tidying, organisation and maintenance of cleanliness of my home while I work. This is an ongoing and secure position for the right person, but it will not suit everyone as it MUST be every weekday (Monday - Friday) from 1pm - 4pm. The goal is to completely hand over the cleaning, organisation and maintenance of the home to you. You would run it as if it was your own, keeping tabs on what days linen is changed, when to mop instead of sweep, when to just tidy up and when to deeply clean etc. This is a position for someone with experience and initiative. You’ve done this before hundreds of times so you won’t need lists from me of what needs doing and when. You will just know because it’s second nature and it’s just what you do! I am open to applications or expressions of interest from anyone but you MUST: Be very experienced. Be confident in your abilities. Be punctual. Be able to work without supervision or direction. Be available at the specific times and days requested. EXTRA TASKS: Occasionally errands (post office, supermarket etc) If the arrangement works for both of us initially, employment would be ongoing. Type of clean: Regular Number of bedrooms: 4+ Number of bathrooms: 3 Equipment and supplies: I can provide
