Taking on a Domestic Cleaner privately
The ‘Triple-A’ Domestic Cleaner is rarer than you might think!
You are about to take on a cleaner privately to clean your home on a regular weekly basis. You have obtained their name and phone number from a neighbour, or a local notice board, or even a simple flyer through your letterbox, or you may have advertised in your local paper. If you are a past employer of domestic staff you will know what to expect. If this is your first time, you may be in for a
surprise!
Things may not work out. Cleaners, like all other human beings, can let you down. For instance, when you phone them, they may agree to an interview and change their mind - and NOT tell you. They may attend and then turn the job down (and you might not be told either). They may start but give up after a few weeks. The stronger the economy, the more this sort of thing happens. It can be frustrating for you.
Despite all your best efforts in finding a cleaner privately and getting them started, things may still not work out. Be prepared to be let down! If you are very unlucky, you may have two in a row not work out. Sometimes you could have interviewed three cleaners in a row - and none get started. On average you can expect to be let down 1:3 cleaners before one settles into a regular routine.
Some cleaning staff may start with great promise and then turn out to be unreliable. Difficulties in attracting the right domestic staff increase in periods of low unemployement. A domestic cleaner will let you down and this WILL happen more often than you might expect.
So how do you source the right domestic cleaner?
