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 vacuuming, mopping, dusting, and bathroom cleaning. Or it might include detail cleaning tasks like couch, curtain, floor, fridge, 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.

Cleaner needed for cleaning and organising at 9am in Mount Waverley. Please do not make an offer unless you can make it at the date and time requested. Thank you. 1 hour payment through airtasker but 💸 payment for other hours. About 5 hours total.

Nice enough person but not punctual—arrived 1 hour and 15 minutes late. Missed several areas, which I had to redo myself. He also brought someone he was training, making the job very slow. There was a lot of back-and-forth between them getting products and equipment. They need better coordination or duplicate equipment to work efficiently.

Do all my washing, sorting and putting away

$300

Berwick VIC 3806, Australia

12th Oct 2025

Okay so I’ve got like 9 massive garbage bags full of clothes, blankets, sheets, towels that I need washed, dried, sorted and folded (into sizes/genders ect 3 kids 1 adult plus some that are too small and/or too big so need to be separated) Am also wanting to then have it all put away in their right spots - wardrobes, cupboards ect this is basically close to all of our clothes so you will be pretty much starting from scratch with empty wardrobes, drawers to organize them into

Yvonne is amazing! such an easy going person and gives off the vibe that she actually cares. I never felt like she was judging me, she just came with solutions, advice if I asked for it and most importantly she made a task that just felt impossibly enormous to m seem as easy as pie for her!?))$ Plus her turnaround time was insane and it’s clear she doesn’t cut corners and really puts in the hard work. 100% recommended! Thanks Yvonne :) :)

Clean, sort and tidy kids playroom

$120

Berwick VIC, Australia

7th Oct 2025

I need my kids play/toy room cleaned and organized. Right now there is stuff everywhere and no organization whatsoever. I’ve got 3 kids (ages 3, 4 and 9) and I’d like for them to be able to easily see what they’ve got and be able to play with it! Looking for someone up for the task of sorting through what’s there, grouping items into ‘like’ categories and setting it all up so it’s inviting and easy for them to play and also put away after! Fairly sure I’ve got all the storage stuff you’ll need for the job… hopefully you can work with what Ive got? Also some stuff in the room will need to go like baby items no longer needed - will donate myself just need them compiled and taken out of the room.

Nadine is amazing! Really easy to get along with and doesn’t need constant supervision or a million instructions to be able to get the job done, she just got straight in there and did everything needed plus the little extras. Highly recommend. Will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Nadine :)
