HOW WE TRAIN YOUR DOMESTIC WORKER, CHAR, MAID OR HOUSEKEEPER TO CLEAN PROPERLY
We follow a 4 step process: 1. Understand the brief. 2. Introduce a cleaning methodology. 3. Provide some theoretical guidance and finally, 4. We conduct practical training going through your house room by room.
TRAINING PROCESS
Understanding your household and cleaning requirements
Our trainer will meet with you, the employer. Here we will take a comprehensive brief and tour the house with you to understand your cleaning requirements. Our trainer has a checklist which helps her cover all elements of training and the cleaning areas which she will need to train the domestic worker, char, housekeeper, maid or nanny on.
What it means to be a ‘super cleaner’
This is a short theoretical part of the course. Here your domestic worker or char will be taught practical and useful information that will make her job easier. It is important that your domestic worker, char, maid, housekeeper or nanny understands what the basic skills of cleaning are and why we implement them. It is much easier to change a bad habit in cleaning when one understands the reasoning behind the task before changing the approach to cleaning.
Cleaning and tidying up room by room
The trainer will go through your home one room at a time and practically work through the checklist while training your domestic worker, char, maid, housekeeper or nanny on the areas which have been highlighted as problem areas.
Ensuring ongoing effectiveness
We can do a follow up with you and your domestic worker, char, maid, nanny or housekeeper after two weeks and cover any issues that may have been missed and which we may need to further clarify.
To learn more about your potential nanny, ask her questions such as the following during the nanny interview, and phrase them in a way that they require more than a yes or no answer.
When you hire a nanny who takes care of your child and also cleans your home, it is important to set the correct expectations.
