If toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, cleaning products, laundry products, or other regularly used supplies are running low, please make a simple shopping list so I know what needs to be purchased. You will not be expected to purchase these items yourself. Initially, it would be helpful if you can bring some of your preferred basic cleaning supplies or tools. I will also provide supplies at the house and can purchase additional products or tools you prefer for ongoing work.

Having a driver's licence and your own vehicle is preferred, but not required as long as transportation is reliable. Privacy & Professionalism Privacy is very important in this household. The housekeeper should be discreet and respectful of personal belongings and information. Photos or videos should not be taken inside the home without permission, and no other person should be brought into the home without prior approval. Personal phone calls are fine when necessary, and listening to music while working is completely fine. I only ask that long or frequent personal calls do not interfere with the work. If you need to cancel or reschedule a visit, please provide at least 24 hours' notice whenever possible, except in emergencies. Schedule & Long-Term Arrangement The regular schedule will normally be once per week for approximately 4–5 hours. The exact day and time are flexible and can be arranged together. Additional visits or hours may occasionally be offered when more help is needed. A paid trial can be arranged before establishing the regular schedule. I am looking for someone who would be interested in a long-term arrangement if we are a good mutual fit.
