What You Will Learn in the Online Housekeeper Foundation Course
Master the Core Principles of Professional Housekeeping
Before learning techniques, it is essential to understand the mindset and values behind five-star service. Therefore, the course begins with key foundations:
- Professional behaviour and standards
- Cultural awareness for working in international households
- Employer relationship and communication
- Hygiene, safety, and wellbeing in the home
- Structure and etiquette of a classical British household
Importantly, these fundamentals prepare you for the more detailed, skill-based training that follows.

Learn Systematic Cleaning Techniques Step by Step
Once the foundations are in place, you will move into structured, practical modules. Through video demonstrations, guided tasks, and clear explanations, you will learn:
Professional Dusting
- S-motions
- Top-to-bottom sequences
- How to work safely around delicate items
Professional Vacuuming
- Overlapping lines
- Controlled pace
- Working in clear rows
- Protecting surfaces and posture
Professional Mopping
- S-motions and row sequences
- Floor care for bathrooms, kitchens, and hallways
- Choosing suitable tools (microfibre, Swiffer-style, flat mops)
Each technique is demonstrated clearly to ensure you gain the confidence to perform your work with consistency, precision, and ease.

Learn Household Systems Used in Top Private Homes
To meet 5 star luxury household standards, you need more than technique. Consequently, the course also trains you in essential systems such as:
Zoning & Colour Coding
Understanding zones (clean vs. less-clean vs. wet vs. dirty) and using colour-coded tools to prevent cross-contamination.
Cleaning Order & Sequences
Learning why we always work from:
- Top → middle → bottom
- Clean → less clean → wet → dirty
Deep Cleaning vs. Maintenance Cleaning
When, why, and how to perform each type.
Checklists & Daily Systems
How to organise your workday, prioritise tasks, and maintain consistent standards.
Easy to follow structure
As you progress through the course, you will notice how each module builds naturally on the last. Consequently, you move from understanding theory to applying real techniques with confidence. In addition, the step-by-step structure ensures that even complex skills become manageable. Furthermore, the guided videos, checklists, and practical exercises reinforce your learning so you can transition smoothly from beginner to advanced levels. Ultimately, this approach allows you to develop professional habits that last throughout your career.
