Job Description
About the Job
Detailed cleaning of our 3 bedroom, 2. 5 bath home + finished basement. Laundry, Organization & Errands.
Our beloved Household Assistant/Cleaner has decided to retire after more than a decade together, and so our family of 3 is searching for someone to help our home stay fresh and organized. This is more than a cleaning job and requires at least 1 full day per week.
Our home is modest in size, but filled with belongings we treasure, and so it is important to find someone who will seek ways to maintain our home and our furnishings so they last. For example: flipping the couch cushions each week, vacuuming the valances and blinds, polishing the wood furniture, and using the high-quality vacuum and cleaning products we provide.
Detailed instructions available.
I look forward to meeting you,
Jen
