Giving you the gift of time to enjoy life again
It is lovely to come home to a clean house where attention and care to detail has been taken.Our kitchen shines like never before and the bathroom is spotless. I also chose the ironing service which Michelle takes and delivers back once done which has been of a high standard and my partner is pleased with how his shirts have been done. Have already recommended to friends.

Mr C B, East Morton
Michelle always goes above and beyond with her cleaning, she has excellent detail to attention and is always punctual and smiling. She has also started doing the family's ironing which again is to a high standard and saves me a job I hate! I also have loved the fact that during the lockdown she has kept in contact checking that we are well and if we needed anything. That kind gesture has been appreciated. Would highly recommend Michelle to anyone that wants some help.

For 26 years I was a nanny/housekeeper in London and Surrey. As the children in my care grew older I took over the housemanagement from the cleaning and laundry to the shopping and preparing guest rooms, from getting the cars serviced and fueled to preparing food for dinner parties I found a love of all things to do with housekeeping and showing homes off to their best potential. In 2019 after a move up to West Yorkshire I decided to take the leap and start out on my own. I have found amazing local clients and businesses that have helped, given advice and welcomed us to the area. I hope that I can do all the jobs that need to be done to give you some extra time for family life and fun.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Check out a few of the most common questions I have received from clients.
DO YOU CHARGE EXTRA FOR LAST-MINUTE TASKS?
If it is something that can be completed within our visit time there will be no charge. If we have to stay longer than the alloted slot due to a client request we will charge at the standard rate rounded upto the next half hour.
WHAT ARE YOUR WORKING HOURS?
We can start from as early as 7.30am as we know all clients have different working patterns. We aim to finish all cleaning jobs by 5pm and Eldercare by 6pm. We cover Monday to Saturday.
I ONLY NEED A FEW HOURS ASSISTANCE HERE AND THERE, DO YOU PROVIDE SUCH A SERVICE?
If we can accommodate your needs and requirements we will do our best to fit you in.
HOW LONG DOES IRONING TAKE TO BE RETURNED?
We aim to deliver your ironing back the next working days. Collection can sometimes be accommodated on a last minute basis on a Saturday.
DO YOU NEED TO QUOTE BEFORE I CAN HAVE A CLEAN?
Yes. This is for both your benefit so you have an accurate price and also for us so we can establish what equipment and materials to bring on the day. We don't like the surprises that sometimes await us if we side step the quotes!
HOW CAN I PAY YOU?
You are able to pay us by cash or by bank transfer on the day. We will provide details after your first clean.
CAN I VARY MY HOURS, TIMES OR DAYS FOR CLEANING OR SUPPORT?
At the moment we are unable to offer this.
WHAT DO I DO IF I GO ON HOLIDAY OR AM SICK AND NEED TO CANCEL?
These things happen!! If you can inform me as soon as possible especially holiday dates we would be grateful as we can then allocate these slots to others.
DO YOU PROVIDE PERSONAL CARE WITH YOUR ELDERCARE SUPPORT SLOTS?
I am afraid at the moment we only provide non personal care. We can ensure meds are taken each day but only from a surgery dispensed dosset box which has each daily pill(s) still sealed and untampered with.
DO YOU DO MEAL PREPARATIONS AND/OR COOKING?
We certainly can. For eldercare and house management time will be allowed for preparation and for cooking. We can leave cold lunches or dinners out for you if that's required.
IS THERE ANY CLEANING YOU WON'T DO?
We do not do oven cleaning or carpet cleaning as without the professional training and equipment we wouldn't want to cause damage. We do however work with some excellent contractors that we can recommend if you ask.We use clients own toilet brushes for hygiene reasons.
WHAT HAPPENS IF THE CLEANER BREAKS SOMETHING?
We are fully insured and will do what we can to help rectify the situation. We would assess it ourself in the 1st instance, should it need replacing and you choose to do we would reimburse on production of a receipt. If it is more serious or a large job we are insured and the insurance assessors would be involved.
CAN YOU HOLD KEYS IF WE ARE WORKING?
Yes we can. All keys are coded with no name or address details attached to them. Keys are kept in a locked safe when not in use. Again this safe has no details within.
