About ironing and laundry
What it usually involves
Washing, drying, ironing and putting away, either in your home or collected and brought back. It's often one of the first jobs to slip when life gets busy, or when bending and lifting get harder.
How a self-employed cleaner can help
They can come at a regular time, work to how you like things done, and fit in around other cleaning if you want both.
Questions worth asking
- Do you work in my home, or collect and return?
- How do you charge: by the hour, by the item or by the basket?
- What happens if something gets damaged?

Questions people ask
How is ironing usually priced?
By the hour, by the item or by the basket. Ask which, so you can compare like with like.
What about delicate items?
Point them out, or keep them back. Care labels are a good guide.
What does self-declared mean?
The provider has told us, but we haven't seen any documents. It's fine to ask to see certificates or proof of insurance.

Why I started Carers & Cleaners
When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
