About Eleanor

Experience: 10 yrs

I love what I do because I love a clean house! My specialty deep cleaning/organizing. I want my clients to be happy and appreciate my time and work ability. Most tell me they prefer having only one person, as opposed to two or more, so they can be more assured they are getting what they want or need. When I first started out over 20 years ago, I was both a nanny and a housekeeper. With some families, I alternated duties and with others it was either just nanny (ages newborn to 16 years) or just housekeeper (can be discussed). I can be flexible depending on situation or need. My rates vary. I am comfortable around pets and I am not opposed to pet clean up/feeding/dog walking. I provide an initial detail-cleaning visit. I am honest, reasonable, and dependable. I come with great references.

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Eleanor for over two years, and she has been absolutely wonderful. She is a hard worker, always reliable, and truly takes pride in what she does. Our home is about 4,000 sq. ft., and she consistently kept it clean, organized, and welcoming. One of her greatest strengths is her attention to organization—I could always find everything right where it belonged. She also handled our laundry, folding and putting it away beautifully, which was such a huge help. She’s punctual, dependable, and has a kind, warm presence. We usually put our dogs away when she came, but when they were out, she was always gentle and friendly with them. Eleanor is very open to feedback and always eager to get things just right. We’re only parting ways for personal (financial) reasons, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for someone hardworking, thorough, and genuinely lovely to have in their home.
