I don’t know about you, but I always feel so much more calm and collected when my house is clean. Having a nice, tranquil place to come home to at the end of the day and spend time with family is super important for me, and since I work a lot from home, I need my space to be organized. But, the problem is getting it clean and keeping it that way with a 1 year old!
All of you know that I’m constantly cooking up a storm in my kitchen, and with that comes a lot of mess. I consider myself a neat person, but sometimes I’m just so busy I need a little help- I’m sure all you moms can agree. So when I got the chance to try Handy, an app for booking local home cleaning services, I jumped at it.
Handy is an awesome service that connects you with cleaning professionals in your area. It’s super easy to schedule online or with their app, and you can sometimes even make an appointment for as soon as the next day. They offer cleaning plans so that you can have someone come on a regular basis- whatever suits your lifestyle. You can schedule cleanings every week, 2 weeks or monthly, and their plans are super flexible if you need to reschedule or move up a cleaning (perfect for last minute visitors!). I love the idea of having someone come on a regular basis to do a big clean, it would make staying on top of things so much easier.
With Handy, you can specify the exact tasks you want tackled in advance, too. Our bedroom is pretty neat, so I wanted the focus to be on our kitchen and living area. You can also customize your cleaning with add ons like fridge or deep oven clean. Plus, all of the cleaning professionals available through Handy have been vetted and background checked, so I felt comfortable leaving during the cleaning to run errands.
The cleaning professional that came did such a fantastic job – my home was spotless! If you love the person you work with, you can also request to have them become your regular Pro for future cleanings. Coming home to a clean space is the best feeling, my days are so long that it was nice to just cook dinner and relax.
Even if you’re one of the lucky few who doesn’t completely hate cleaning, who has the time?! Handy makes staying on top of the housework a total breeze!
