clarebear Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hi thereCan anyone recommend a cleaner or cleaning agency in Brisbane (northside)? I'm desperate! I'm hippo-like pregnant with twins and struggling to run after a toddler and keep the house looking reasonable. The agency I've tried have sent two utterly useless people along... the house looks MUCH worse when they leave than when they arrive, I'm tearing my hair out!Clare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the agencies take whatever they can get. I know a few of them (private cleaning ladies) here in Stanthorpe - they are amazing women, drive expensive cars and are fun to have around. Of course, they're not all like that, but you just have to find the right person and look after them - that's important - they are worth gold:)Good luck with the twins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I have always found mine in the classified ads in my local paper, perhaps give that a try, if you haven't already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarebear Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Thanks for the tips, sounds like the private option might be a better bet than an agency... although some eternally optimistic part of me has agreed to try out a third cleaner from the same agency next week!Now to spend my weekend undoing the damage done today :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbhennops Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Hi clarebear.What agency are you going through. If you tell then you are very pedantic about how your house is cleaned, they will send you one of there best. They don't send untried cleaners to clients that are pedantic about there homes.

Mara Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Folks you need to look at the date at the top left of the posts, Clarebear asked for this assistance in January 2008, those twins are probably a year old already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
