Hiya,


I am due in a week now and would like to get a temporary cleaner asap. Does anyone know of anyone trustworthy and thorough that wants a bit of extra work after Christmas? Alternatively are there any businesses out there that offer these services on a temporary basis? I can't be the only one finding it a bit too much despite not working (sounds so lazy!!!)


There is a chance this may lead to a permanent position (if it were wanted) - My previous cleaner left about November and I didn't replace her as I couldn't justify the expense given I had stopped work by then, however, I will go back to work at some stage so if someone was really good I wouldn't be adverse to keeping them on :-)


Thanks


Clare


Edited to say I would like someone asap on a weekly basis from now until the baby is at least a few weeks old - so probably around 6 weeks. I think 3 hours a week would be the right amount of time.

I got a "temporary" cleaner just before I had my son... 3 years later and I still have a "temporary" cleaner :))


We get our cleaners through Selclene Dulwich - have had 3 in the 3 years - first one not so good but wasn't a problem at all to change to a different one. The one we have now has been with us for over 18 months and I can honestly say it's the best money I spend every week. When you've got kids it's hard enough keeping on top of keeping yourself and them clean let alone the house!


I hope you find someone suitable, sorry I can't help, ours is currently fully booked up.

    • That a shocking story.  Spurs?  You appear to be lost.  Haringey is very much the other side of the river.  
    • Every year they ask for more and every year it is an exhausting process pushing back on that for local residents and councillors. What annoys me is that at the post event consultation/ feedback this year, I specifically asked them if the rumours around applying for two weekends next year were true. They told me no. So that was a lie. Anyway, we go again. 
    • Double In New or great condition  Or super comfortable air bed Any1 pls
    • Rant ahead: You're not one of them but unfortunately, there's a substrate of posters here that do very little except moan and come up with weird conspiracy theories. They're immediately highly critical of just about any change, and their initial assumption is that everyone else is a total fucking contemptible idiot. For example: don't you think that the people who run the libraries will have considered the impact of timing of reconstruction on library users? (In fact, we know they have - because they've made arrangements at other libraries to attempt to mitigate the disruption). After all, these are the people that spend their whole working week thinking about libraries and dealing with library users (and the kids especially). You don't go into the library game for the chicks and fame - so it's fair to assume that librarians are committed to public service and public access to libraries, including by kids. Likewise the built environment people (engineers, architects, construction managers, project managers, construction contractors, subcontractors or whoever is on this job) are told to minimise disruption on every job they do. The thing that occurs to us as amateurs within 30 seconds of us seeing something is probably not something a full time professional hasn't thought about! Southwark Council, the NHS, TfL, Dulwich Estate, Thames Water, Openreach - they're not SPECTRE factories filled with malevolent chaosmongers trying to persecute anyone. They're mostly filled with people who understand their job and try to do their best with what they've been given - just like all of us. Nobody is perfect or immune from challenge, and that's fair enough, but why not at least start from the assumption that there's a good reason why things have been done the way they have? Any normal person would be pleased that their busy, pretty, lively local library is getting refurbished, and will have more space and facilities for kids and teens, and will be more efficient to run and warmer in winter. But no, EDT_Forumite_752 had kids who did an exam 20 years ago, and this makes them an expert on library refurbishment who can see it's all just stuff and nonsense for the green agenda and why can't it all be put off... 😡😡😡
