Professional housekeepers referred by Cinderella's Agency generally will work with your cleaning supplies and equipment. Please make certain that you have all basic supplies and any special cleaners for extra projects.

  • Please have your priority list of your housekeeping needs prepared for your housekeeper.
  • Make sure your vacuum is in good working order and have a spare bag and belt available.
  • Keep any unfriendly pets outside.
  • Notify housekeeper of any deliveries or repair services scheduled.
  • Mark your calendar to remind yourself of your service date. We require 48 hours cancellation notice for confirmed appointments.
