Recent Housekeepers reviews in Melbourne

Thanks to Melissa our bedrooms and study are now looking organised for the first time since we moved in six months ago! Melissa is efficient, makes great recommendations and knows how to make clever use of small spaces, and where before I felt like we didn’t have enough storage, we now have a whole empty cupboard. We will definitely be having her back for “round 2” to work on the rest of the house!

Decluttering and organising

$350

What a wonderful gift Melissa has for helping people! I asked for help in reorganising, decluttering and reimagining my working-from-home space as well as makeshift art studio. Melissa had loads of wonderful ideas backed up by links of where to buy exactly what I need. I couldn’t be happier snd am so grateful. Melissa, hope to see you soon for part 2 once I’ve hit the next milestone. Thank you again!

Carla was very prompt in her communications and an absolute lifesaver while things got away on me as a result of the post-lockdown work rush. Things really got away on me and Carla was able to help me clean the slate - and my home - so I can feel great at home heading into the tail end of the year. Thanks Carla!

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.

I’ve already packed up most of my home, but I need an extra pair of hands to help me finalise the last bits before moving out. The job involves wrapping some smaller, fragile items in bubble wrap, re-organising a few boxes, and helping me tidy and pack the remaining odds and ends. Nothing too heavy — just a few hours of light, detailed work with care and attention. I’d love someone who’s friendly, easy to chat with, and brings a positive, calm energy to the space. I’m flexible with timing, do not mind after hours in fact would prefer the longer you can stay the better and we will adjust the price according to how long you stay. There will be some light cleaning wiping potentially vacuuming involved however it is not an end of lease clean it is just a tidy up. It’s been a bit stressful, so please let me know a little bit about you so I can determine if you’re the right fit for the role

All I can say is you need to book Her she is amazing. Fast efficient , did everything on her own did not need much direction at all … brought all her own equipment .. legitimate professional organiser …great energy. Highly recommend.
