Need house tidying up help and cleaning

$120

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!

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.

Weekly housekeeping - 3 visits per week in Northcote

$135

Northcote VIC, Australia

2nd Apr 2026

We are a young, energetic family of 5 looking for a trusted Housekeeper to attend our family home 3 times per week to complete the following tasks: - Laundry wash/dry/fold/put away - Wardrobe management. Keep tidy - Dishes cleaned, put away. - Put away groceries, maintain fridge, cut fruit/veg - Toy management & keeping kids rooms clean - Changing bed sheets, washing, maintaining linen cupboard. - Light cleaning (we have a weekly cleaner but would need daily light cleaning) We are flexible around the time of day, but would like you to come anytime during the work day (between 9 to 4) whilst we are at work/school/daycare. There is also an opportunity to prep meals for when we get home if you have that skill set and desire for additional hour per shift. This is an ongoing task. We'd need someone to start the week of the 20th April, and to attend our home 3 days per week. Ideally Monday, Tuesday & Thursday. Each shift would be 3 hours, or 4 hours with the addition of dinner/meal prep if the candidate is willing/able/skilled to take that on. We take a lot of pride in our home so are looking for someone with a good eye for organisation and attention to detail. The rate is $45 per hour, so $135 per visit (or $180 with meal prep)
