Seriously, I only have my cleaner coming in once a month, but it makes such a difference. I’d have her in more often if I could afford it.

She takes care of all the every-so-often cores that I never get around to (like scrubbing the tub, vacuuming under furniture, doing the windows). It’s nice to know that I can just do a little bit of cleaning every week, and the more intensive stuff will be done for me.

If you’re thinking about doing this, I seriously recommend finding a locally-owned company. Independant maids or cleaners are often not insured, and if someone is good and responsible, he or she can build up a company fast. Mine has been in business for 20 years, and has four people working for her but still cleans herself. She’ll use only green products if you request it. She is amazing, I love coming home after she’s been here.
