Regular laundry housekeeper SW11, 6 hours a week over 3 visits

£90

Wandsworth Common, Greater London, SW11

6th Nov 2026

Looking for a reliable, organised person to manage the laundry for our family of six at home in Battersea SW11. Initially around two hours per visit, three times a week, with days and times to agree. We have two washing machines and two tumble dryers. The role includes: * Collecting and sorting laundry. * Washing and drying, following garment care instructions. * Ironing as needed. * Folding, hanging and putting everything away in the correct wardrobes and drawers. * Keeping the laundry area tidy and staying on top of the washing. We’d like the same person regularly, who can get to know the household and take responsibility for the whole process without needing supervision. This is a dedicated laundry role, with no general house cleaning required. Previous housekeeping or laundry experience and references preferred. We’d start with a paid trial, with a view to an ongoing arrangement, and review the hours once we’ve established a routine. Please reply with your experience, availability and hourly rate.

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.Â
