FAQs for finding live-in housekeepers near you in Philadelphia, PA

A live-in housekeeper near you in Philadelphia, PA is a person who helps with household tasks, such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, gardening and organizing. They live in the house they're taking care of and are expected to perform regular duties that are typically associated with housekeeping roles, such as dusting, vacuuming, and making beds. Live-in housekeepers typically work longer hours than traditional housekeepers due to their dual role of living in the home. They also need to be available for any unexpected requests that arise from their employers. This type of employment arrangement may offer a unique opportunity for employers and live-in housekeepers alike.

Finding a live-in housekeeper near you in Philadelphia, PA through Care.com is a hassle-free process. First, create an account on the website and fill out any necessary information as prompted. Next, search through live-in housekeepers available in your area by filtering choices according to factors such as experience level, reviews, services offered and hourly rate. If a live-in housekeeper looks promising, reach out to them with an inquiry. You can discuss specifics such as expectations from the live-in housekeeper and whether or not they provide their own transportation and supplies. Once an agreement has been reached via private messaging on Care.com, you can arrange for an interview in person or over video conference that should be monitored for safety purposes if conducted away from the premises.

When considering whether a live-in housekeeper is right for your family, you need to assess your individual needs and budget.
