How we work

Registration, interviews and preparation are free for candidates. In some cases a fee may apply, but only after successful placement and depending on the vacancy.

We look at your experience, languages, documents and schedule preferences, and only offer families who will value your professionalism rather than looking for someone to do everything.

Risks and search problems

Risks of
search

Searching for a job in the private sector on your own often feels like a lottery where your time, mental health, and financial stability are at stake. The main risk is the lack of clear, documented agreements.

What the job looks like

One house, many different tasks

A housekeeper's job in a private family varies a lot. In an apartment it means maintenance cleaning, laundry, ironing and sometimes simple cooking. In a large house or villa you work in a team with other housekeepers, caring for marble, wood, fine textiles and wardrobes and preparing guest rooms.

One house, many different tasks
What you get

A job where agreements are kept

The most common complaint from housekeepers is a growing list of duties while the pay stays the same. We start from the opposite end: the task list, schedule, days off and accommodation are agreed before you even meet the family, and only then do we send your profile. Leave a request and we will find options that match your experience.
