My mom would help in the past, but now that I have kids I prefer to spread out my help. I'd rather my kids be with grandma, and hire someone for my house if we can swing it. For now, i just use them when I'm desperate. So they're going to charge alot more bc its like a spring cleaning. If you are on a schedule, it will be less cleaning for them, and they won't have to scrub down each room per se. It would take me 10 hours to clean my house thoroughly (on hands and knees lol), and at the fast pace they go, which I just can't. I'm stopping every 45 mins for a break bc I'm exhausted.<br>The thing to remember is they won't pick up. So you kind of have to do a pre cleaning cleaning. This year I worked really hard on simplifying my home for that reason. We purged alot of unneeded stuff. DD doesn't need 20 stuffed animals, 5 is fine, for example. Thats helped alot.<br>
