Good cleaners, reliable cleaners are really hard to come by!!!!
I pay my cleaner £10 per hour / £20 per week (well i bet she does more than 2 hours but that is all i ask her to do)
It is well worth it !!
I paid her £16 a week last year but we wanted to pay her more, even though she didnt complain when we moved to a bigger house, in fact she was concerned that i might not want her anymore if i was tight for money.
I have had loads of cleaners at home and at work and they are so so hard to come by (a good one that is!!!)
Before anyone says £20 a week is peanuts - she is a family friend but i paid a professional cleaner £16 a week before and they were rubbish!
