You shouldn't even call these ppl house cleaners. These are con artists. I LOVE when a client asks me detailed questions. Gives me a chance to show off. This is a great video because it helps to keep our reputation intact. Rifling through mail, making sandwiches!! OMG I could be wrong but I think many times it's the customers looking for the cheapest deal that end up with this kind of cleaner .

@GrimR3apa1102 2 года назад

I feel like that's really a sad way of thinking, most people should not need a college degree for home cleaning and even professional cleaners don't even know anything about cleaning or mixing chemicals. Had a "professional" mix bleach and ammonia, while any basic mother knows that's a no go. Someone might be trying to dabble into a cleaning business and people like you won't give them the chance. How can they get experience without applying what they have learned. It's closed minded and very dumb to live with that way of thinking.

@yesiownfrodo 4 года назад

I was a cleaner for years while I was going through college, and I actually made better money than I did as a teacher. To be honest, I was not licensed/bonded (this was years ago) but I had many clients for years. So what I would like to add this is for this: I always left a detailed list of everything I cleaned. My most persnickety clients had a list already typed out for me. Follow the directions of the person who hired you. If they want detailed cleaning on the kitchen and bathroom and no cleaning in the bedrooms, so be it. You are a professional hired to do a service. To people who are hiring, I would say provide the cleaning products you want used in your home, insist that your own mop be used and your own cleaning cloths, leave a detailed note for your cleaner, feel free to pop in occasionally, and also leave a small snack for them. It doesn't need to be much, one of those cheap packs of peanut butter crackers works. Cleaners, you are working, get off the phone. Last, this goes for both the cleaner and the client: stay out of the way. Homeowners, try not to be home while your house is being cleaned. Cleaners: if the client is home, try to clean the rooms they are not in first. A little PS: please understand that the cleaner will need occasional breaks while cleaning. If you find them sitting down drinking some water, please know they may have just half killed themselves vacuuming for half an hour.

I like this video. Very informative for homeowners hiring house cleaners. I decided to change careers after 20 years of caregiving. One housecleaning job lead to another. Now at 8 years of cleaning I always brought my own lunch and water. Ate quickly and never sat down. Never engaged in homeowners conversations not unless I was invited to do so. Love what I do and always learning something new with up to date products. Plus it keeps this 60year old in shape!!!

I fired my house cleaner because she didn’t think I corrected my daughter properly. She also cleaned my grandmas house also. She reported the incident to my grandma, who told my mom, who told me. I don’t need someone in my home to criticize me! I was talking care of two terminal family members, and she felt I should of been much harder on my daughter. Even though I needed the help, it wasn’t worth it.

I've been cleaning for years now, I didn't even mean to get into it, I just started helping a friend, then their friend, and it went from there by word of mouth. I like it best when the homeowner is there the whole time, that way they can hear and keep an eye on what I do, there's no question. Of the eating food or crap that I can't believe people actually do!! I come in, clean, and go. I've never once shared info about a client. Not even last names.

When I lived in Mexico, I shared a 3-bedroom condo with 2 male Mexican roommates. I am a foreign white girl. They hired a Mexican housekeeper (thank God because they didn’t clean anything!). She did clean but I was the only female roommate and after a few weeks, I noticed my perfume was getting less and less, as was my deodorant and hair spray, and my deodorant was going down much faster than usual (when I lived elsewhere in the same city). I didn’t always wear perfume or hair spray (my hair was braided at the time so I didn’t need it) I told my roommates about it and they shrugged it off. I’m sure the housekeeper spritzed herself up with my expensive products before she left for the day. 😡😡. The roommates told me not to worry about it. I moved out shortly after as their dismissive attitude was just the tip of the iceberg.

@AskAngelaBrown 2 года назад

Oh no, this is a really sad story. I'm sorry to hear that your items were used without your permission. It's theft in a small form (since they still left the actual containers) but it's theft just the same. I'm sorry you had to experience this.

@ajalicea1091 Год назад

I don't care if it makes other house cleaners MAD. I do have a home that I clean and the lady says that I'm being a little on the OCD side. I have never taken a course that provides training for house cleaners. In this area where I live there is no such thing. That is one reason why I try to find people like you so that I can better myself as a house cleaner. Since I work by myself most of the time, I do not overbook myself if at all possible. That way if I come across a speed bump in the road as the old saying goes. I can spend that extra time if need be.

@AskAngelaBrown Год назад

It's great to hear that you're committed to improving your skills as a house cleaner and that you prioritize providing thorough cleaning services for your clients. Not having access to formal training courses in your area doesn't mean you can't strive for excellence. Seeking out resources like RU-vid videos and connecting with experienced individuals, like myself, can indeed help you gain valuable insights and knowledge. Additionally, your approach of not overbooking yourself and allowing extra time to handle unexpected challenges demonstrates your dedication to providing quality service. Keep up the good work and continue to pursue opportunities for growth and improvement in your cleaning business. Wishing you lots of continued success!

When I cleaned houses, my clients hired me from "word of mouth" and my dad (a small business owner) always says, "Do a good job and your work will sell itself." And I think that's a great philosophy for any job. I cleaned a day spa for two years that changed management. They stopped calling me back and I always wondered why. I found out through a former employee that I was blamed for taking $40 out of the register. It still bothers me. I wish I would've known some things to avoid about clients as well. I would've asked that money be put in a safe so I wouldn't be blamed. There are other things too, like customers who have filthy houses they haven't cleaned for ages, but expect you to get it all done in a day with little pay. It tuff out there!

Wow! I've done this for over 15 years and was professionally trained. I now clean homes, and I am turning clients away because of referrals. I never would even think of eating food, rifling through their documents, or telling their stories to other clients. That's shameful. In fact, I rarely go to the bathroom in my homes, ( unless it's big, and I can't wait) or take a break. I used to not turn on the air, and this is in the South, but now I am older and more confident- and I've had my clients for a long time- so I do. These people are not house cleaners, they are shams, and they degrade a business I love and something I make great money at while providing a valuable service to them. I still clean solo simply because other than my daughter, I could never find anyone with the same work ethic as I have.

The home health CNA twice a week for 4 hours each visit. Also, the head home health care manager once a month or so. I had absolutely no privacy in my own home. This was 10 plus people is my home each week. The number of people varied as time went on but this went on for YEARS. I hated it!

Angela, can you give tips on how to clean a house in a certain amount of time. Or how long should a cleaner stay at a house cleaning.

@denisereiland8458 4 года назад

Routine. I’ve been a house keeper and janitor for over 20 years. I find by starting in the same room, spot every time I know how long it will take, if that makes sense. It keeps me organized in my routine so if a mess arises or I have to spend extra time on something, I know where I can speed it up to take care of the extras.

To clients: do not boobytrap with unannounced unassembled items you want dusted under. Do not hide pennys to see if the runner in the hall got picked up, or under the candles are still there, or under the chair leg to see if it got moved. Expect a dish of found pennys on the counter. Make sure doors actually lock with the key. Contain pets that "never bite". They do.

Some employees have bad habits, but the employer give the rules, periodically need trainer and give education about, how to clean, good behavior, clients privacy, professionalism, etc. Employees records need be screened, I keep my 👀 nobody eats or drink client’s food, do not bring cell phone inside clients houses, talk just what is necessary for perform the clean etc… The client pay for cleaning so if the house looks clean, we cleaning everything as in check list. 4 But unfortunately, some homeowners looking just for low rates, so they house is open for bad surprises.

Wow, I wish I had seen this video before I hired a cleaner once last year. I’m a busy single parent that’s also in full time school, so I hired someone once not knowing what to expect. When I asked her for a list of what she cleaned we talked on the phone and she basically shamed me for how dirty my house was and that she wasn’t going to take every single item off a shelf to dust it. Then she proceeded to judge my parenting! It got to a point where I defended myself by saying I have adhd… and it was really just a mess. Anyways, the point of my little rant here was just to say that I appreciate the honesty and integrity and advice in this video. Thank you so much!

Angela my house is such a mess I don't even have a space to set up a table to get rid of things. I can't find things and buy more wasting lots of money. As I was working to organize my quilting projects, AKA find the ones I need to work and finish; things started to click. I was in the garage, moved a few things I could to the driveway, set up a throw away box, recycle box, and donate box. Used an empty tote as my table and was able to make a dent in the mess. As I got tired, I was able to put everything away and load the donations in the car. After sitting and having a Coke I took donations to GW I was shocked they don't take or sell Tupperware, so those items had to come back home.

@AskAngelaBrown 2 года назад

Par for the course. I've been cleaning houses, offices, etc for 20 years. For good cleaners, look for pet hair. Is pet hair still behind doors? Do the white glove test. Run your finger over a dark surface. Does dust come up? Customers need to pay attention to these things. Let neighbors know you have a cleaner coming over. There are lots of ways you can ensure your house will get done properly. I love cleaning. I tell customers up front what I intend to do. Cameras are usually going inside and outside houses. Customers need to just use a little common sense when people come into their house.

Sadly budget made the decision for me, and hired without this knowledge. (I even gave her the list I found via another company. Not sure if she ever used it.) And she would show up with some sketchy characters in her crew. Wish I'd seen this video first. I've downsized since and do my own cleaning now, but I would highly recommend anyone hiring cleaners view this video. I would've paid extra for this professionalism, expertise and pride in a job well done. Wow. Blown away.

It’s an old car, and I don’t think either of us went through stuff. He had some odd stuff there. I cringed whenever he opened the trunk. I’m the organizer here. It felt so good to clean the car that I tackled the trunk. It all took hours. Got my exercise. Can’t wait till he drives it on Monday. He is a lot more enthusiastic about cleaning and decluttering than when I started. So, if someone says that their husbands won’t help declutter, they will probably be on board at some point.

I'm not a house cleaner so I'm not as sensitive to the issue as house cleaners will be, but I've watched many of Angela's videos and have not sensed that AT ALL. Her target audience is people who take pride in their cleaning business and are generally on the lookout for ways to improve. Warning the public about what to look out for isn't an indictment of all house cleaners, and it doesn't come across that way. The things she mentions in this video would apply to any professional who comes into your house and functions unsupervised. Hourly caregivers, for instance. We had caregivers take food out of my mother's fridge. It's tricky bc if they need it, you don't want to say anything...
