Q: Do I have to be at home while the housekeeper is working?
A: No, you do not have to be at home, as long as there is a way for our housekeeper to enter your house/apartment. However, we recommend you at least meet your6 housekeeper on the first day of service, so that you see who is cleaning your home – and to give instructions first-hand.
Q: Can I write notes to let the housekeeper know what I want?
A: Yes, please feel free to do so. You may also feel free to contact your coordinator by phone / email in advance, so that they can pass the message to the housekeeper
Q: How can the housekeeper enter my apartment to provide the service?
A: There are some options:
1) You are at home at the beginning and end of service.
2) Your building concierge/management desk holds the key on the day of service or ongoing please ask your concierge if this is possible
3) The key is left in a secured box in your building entrance area, or locked mail box.
Q: Can I leave my key(s) with the housekeeper?
A: Yes – many of our housekeepers are holding the keys of our clients since this is often the only way they can enter the home.
Q: Can I have the service on weekends and Public Holidays?
A: Yes, we can provide the service on weekends and Public Holidays. There is no additional charge for the services.
Q: What if the housekeeper is not meeting my expectations?
A: Should you not be satisfied with the housekeeper, your coordinator will work to align the housekeeper’s work with your requests, and improve the level of the service. If this coaching does not produce the desired results, we will re-match a housekeeper to better serve your needs.
Q: If I want a service more than once a week, will that be the same housekeeper?
A: Yes – assuming this is your original request. If you wish to increase the frequency of service later on, there may be a chance that the schedule of your regular housekeeper cannot accommodate your request. In which case, we would arrange a different housekeeper to provide additional services.
