Housekeeper in West Chicago, Illinois

Do you need a stay at home mom/housewife but lack the time, energy, knowledge or desire to do it yourself? I can do everything to ensure your household runs efficiently with the least amount of effort on your part, leaving you with the time to do the things you love rather than the things you have to do. Now that my youngest is in school I would like to help others, either by doing your cleaning so you have more time and energy or by sharing tips and tricks about running a household and helping implement new systems that I have learned through a tedious trial and error process. I have 10 years of experience cleaning and managing an 8 person household. Our kids (boys and girls) ages have ranged from newborn to 17 years old so I have seen and managed just about everything! There isn’t a mess or a project that scares me or that I can’t handle! I am a Jane of all trades. I specialize in organizing, cleaning and shopping. I can organize anything; from your closet to your pantry to your filing system. I have a great and well tested system in place for just about every aspect of running a busy chaotic household. I can create schedules or reward charts to help motivate kids(or adults!). I can help make a personalized family binder. I can do general cleaning and deep cleaning. I do prefer to charge by the job/project rather than charge an hourly rate. My husband tells me I sometimes get too though in my deep cleaning and I don’t believe it is fair to charge you more because my OCD/perfectionism cause me to take a little bit longer than normal! I can do all types of deep cleaning and tend to clean in places no one ever thinks needs cleaning. I like to use homemade natural cleaning products as much as I can but have no objection to using regular cleaners as well. I can teach or make homemade cleaning products(homemade laundry detergent is my favorite thing to make!) for you to keep at your house to use. I can meal plan, calorie count, grocery shop, food prep and cook meals that just need to be heated up. I make great freezer meals and can divide and portion out to freeze for busy nights. I am very thrifty and can share ways and implement systems that help save money. I can clip and organize coupons. I can help implement or maintain a recycling and compost system. I am very adament on upcycling and reusing as much as I can. I can do most yard work including helping plan or start a garden. I am flexible with my availability and have my own transportation. I will use my own cleaning supplies or yours. Send me an email at [email protected] and I will get back with you as soon as possible! Thank you.
