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.

Help my mum clean her house

$70

Wanniassa ACT 2903, Australia

9th Dec 2024

My mum is in her 70s. She is having a gathering later this week and intends to tidy and clean her house. She's a bit tired at the moment, and I'm worried that this will be a bit much for her. Therefore I would like to organise someone to come and clean with her. My mum is delightful, friendly and chatty. It will be useful if you are okay with some socialising while helping her to stay on task (eg. asking her what needs doing next) 😄. The house is four bedrooms, but I think she'll want to focus on the two living areas, kitchen and bathroom. I believe this will take 1.5 hours max.

We are moving house and need help with a few things for a few hours starting from 9am on Tuesday 12 November: * Move small items from a small storage unit in Philip to our home in Lyons (my husband will be there to help you). You will need to have a ute or a van. It will likely be 2 trips.

We will need you to take the dirt with you as we have nowhere in our garden it can be disposed. Video of the items in the storage unit available on request. It's mostly bulk grocery items (boxes of nappies, olive oil, pasta sauce etc), as well as items like kids bikes and small items of kids furniture.
