Filipino housekeepers are widely recognised as some of the most capable and reliable in the world. Their reputation for loyalty, attention to detail, and exceptional work ethic makes them the go-to choice for discerning London households. Whether managing daily cleaning, handling laundry to perfection, or preparing a home for last-minute guests, they consistently deliver five-star service. Even so, summer can overwhelm a household without the right support.

During the summer months, when homes are busiest with visitors, travel preparation, and outdoor hosting, having reliable, capable help becomes essential. As a result, many households turn to short-term staffing solutions. And in many cases, the most dependable hands belong to housekeepers with decades of experience.

Why Hire a Summer Housekeeper?

Summer in London is a busy time for private homes. School holidays, visiting guests, increased travel, and social events create more work and less time.

  • Maintain order and cleanliness throughout the day
  • Manage laundry and wardrobe organisation for family and visitors
  • Prepare rooms and maintain a guest-ready standard
  • Assist with packing, unpacking, errands, and general oversight while the family is away
  • Support during summer events, dinner parties, or weekend hosting

In addition, short-term placements allow families to enjoy the benefits of private service without long-term commitment. Not only is it flexible, but it’s also efficient and cost-effective.

What’s more, it gives you immediate peace of mind during your busiest time of year.

Celebrating Experience: The Value of Older Filipino Housekeepers

At Bespoke Bureau, we are proud to represent a growing number of experienced Filipino housekeepers aged 50 and above, many of whom are in their 60s. These professionals bring an unmatched level of maturity, dedication, and calm efficiency into the homes they serve. By comparison, less experienced staff often require more oversight.

While younger candidates are in short supply—and often less seasoned—the older generation of Filipino housekeepers offers:

  1. Decades of hands-on private household experience
  2. Stability and reliability, particularly valued for short-term placements
  3. Pride in their work and attention to detail that only experience teaches
  4. Unflappable demeanour, ideal for busy, high-pressure summer environments
  5. Genuine warmth, often forming long-lasting bonds with the families they assist

Moreover, we encourage our clients to look beyond age and consider the unique value these professionals bring. In many cases, once a client has experienced the capability, initiative, and strong work ethic of a more mature housekeeper, they return year after year requesting the same individual.

Client Story: A Summer in South Kensington

A London-based couple with three children recently contacted us for urgent summer support when their permanent housekeeper had to return home unexpectedly. Within 36 hours, we placed Lourdes, a seasoned Filipino housekeeper with a warm smile and eagle-eye for detail.

Throughout the six-week placement, Lourdes managed the household beautifully—coordinating laundry for three children, preparing rooms for visiting relatives, and keeping the kitchen spotless after a series of weekend brunches. As a result, the clients were so pleased they’ve already requested her return for next year’s summer holidays.

Since then, they’ve told us they’ll never underestimate the value of experience again.
