A professional housekeeper is someone who takes care of the running of your household, and this goes way beyond just cleaning.

At LNK Janitorial Services, we  look for dedicated Housekeepers, and therefore generally only take on candidates who have demonstrated longevity in previous roles, this being a minimum of 2 years in one employment.

Generally we look for candidates with a minimum of 4 years experience in large, demanding households, often working for employers who are very particular about their households. We select only candidates who understand the importance of perfectionism, initiative and ability to take and remember the instructions.

The difference between a housekeeper and a cleaner is that the housekeeper works usually only for a single employer, taking care of all the different tasks needed for running the household, from general cleaning, shopping and polishing the silver to helping out at dinner parties..
