We need a cleaner. This place is filthy and gross.
I need a cleaner who I know I can trust not to steal anything, and not to move important things (at least without asking first).
My mother would be ideal for the job - except for the part where any work done would come with a heaping side of criticism and judgment and I absolutely do not need that.
The first few cleans would be intensive cleans - the floors, the dusty shelves, the nooks and crannies full of breadcrumbs and cat hair, the appliances, the oven, the windows, the icky build-up in the bathroom. After that it would be just a quick once over every week or fortnight and our home would be CLEAN and NICE.
Someone who could help with the clutter and with organising would be great. Someone I could work with if I wanted, or just supervise, or leave completely alone if I felt that was what I needed/wanted to do.
If I have someone else around doing this stuff, I'd probably be more motivated to do it myself. While they were deep cleaning, I could tidy the kitchen table, or organise the endlessly chaotic plastics cupboard.
At the moment it's a case of "when we finally get around to replacing/renovating things, then they'll be clean again." But they will get DIRTY again and I need goddamn help.
Where do I find someone like this? And god can I afford the cost?
