I'm looking for tips. When you have cleaning help, what are your top priorities? I want to know what you have her clean and with what products? Please be as specific as possible. My house is very clean but would love to get it just a couple of notches cleaner so that it squeaks and sparkles =) Thank you so much!

I think you have to divide question by room.
(Also your title need to be fixed)
Any room - remove clutter then when cleaned will feel much cleaner.

Bathroom - clean around drain and faucet with cleanser and toothbrush or toothpick to clean well. Shower/bathtub clean grout, edges, drain & faucet - I'm a big believer in cleanser (Ajax) but maybe other things are good too.

Bedrooms - vaccum under beds and cribs, edges near wall with hose of vacuum or have her sweep edge of wall and then vaccum. Vacuum in closets and edges with hose. Dust baseboards. Organize drawers and streamline closets, refold things that are messy.

Playroom - organize all in neat storage containers, vacuum well everywhere, dust.

(all rooms clean windows well and dust)

Kitchen - all cabinets and drawers can be cleaned periodically on a schedule. Clean counters, sinks, table and chairs - legs too, table legs too.

Enjoy!

You forgot the walls! You don't realize how dirty they are till they washed! It makes a HUGE difference!

I'm far from obsessively clean (my house is a roaring wreck at the moment) but I've still got a great imagination so:

Remove and polish inside and outside of light fixtures
Clean radiators and a/c vents (or wall vents if central)
Dust picture frames
Scrub sink strainers
Remove hair from all hairbrushes, soak in hot soapy water
Wipe down all door knobs and light switches
Beat dust out of comforters and rugs
Remove curtains and wash, or wipe down blinds
