My cleaning lady is at my house 8-9 hours usually. She cleans my whole house, washes floors, fridge, freezer, stoves. Washes and folds all laundry. It takes a lot of time. My house is 5 bedrooms/4 full bathrooms.

I give her different deep cleaning stuff most weeks.

I like when they do my whole house and I feel it was done as opposed to less time more days where they do the same stuff over and over.

What deep cleaning jobs do you rotate? I’m not good with that!

20 hours a week and I pay $250 for the week. So about 12.50/hr. Some of the time she is “nannying” but like 3/4 of the time is actual cleaning and laundry.

I pay a set price of $80 for one morning a week. It's usually somewhere between 4 and 5 hours.

This isn't hard, especially if the house is big. My question is, what do they do 6h/day, 5 days/week?

Like someone answered me many years ago: "you know on your dish rack, there's dishes drying , there she dries it and put it back in the closet! "
I totally could use so many hours!!!
My kids know that if we ever win big at the lottery the first thing I'll do is get daily cleaning help!! LOL

Just got a cleaning lady for the first time. Amazing price - about $13.50/hour - but she isn't great with deep cleaning. I'm just happy I found anyone altogether though, so hard to find. She's really sweet and trustworthy. What kinds of jobs besides deep cleaning do you give your cleaning lady?

I let her organize my pantry every other week, cut up my vegetables for dinner and Shabbos, grate my cheese and potatoes for kugel, organize my toys and clothing drawers, clean outside etc.

17/ hour, 8 hrs a week.
She's here twice a week, 4 hours each. It's always basic cleaning and folding laundry plus some extra like inside fridge, linen, oven.... before pesach I could really use more

$70 a weekly visit, Lakewood. She cleans my house (4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, 2 rooms of linen changing each week. but not laundry. It’s not hourly so whenever it gets done she leaves. I always bad experience with hourly. I felt like I was paying tons and hardly anything got done cuz they had no drive to complete the job.
