Quality of our London housekeepers
First of all, all housekeepers registered with us have come recommended by a previous agency client or candidate. Secondly, housekeepers with our agency will have at least 5 years’ experience working in a similar setting to yours. Thirdly, our housekeepers have checkable references, current DBS checks and of course the right to work in the UK. They are well known to us and understand the needs and demands of the modern refined London household. They are all fluent in English. Moreover, they are typically loyal, committed, hardworking and flexible.
Housekeeper: £45,000 to £55,000 gross per year. The cost of a live-in housekeeper is not necessarily less than a live-out housekeeper. The reason is that there are less available live-in housekeepers on the market and thus, the price tends to be the same.
Part time housekeepers are typically looking at being paid from around £18 per hour net.
Head Housekeeper: £55,000 gross per year and up
Housekeepers for overseas work
We place western housekeepers in well paid positions overseas. These are typically paid more than the suggested rates above. Aside from the salary, you will be responsible for their work visa, relocation costs, travel and board.

What most housekeepers in London find appealing
Most housekeepers are looking for full-time work. Preferably Monday to Friday. Some clients are seeking to fill positions that are 5.5 or 6 days a week. Consider having someone Monday through Friday, covering all aspects of your needs in that timeframe. This way, your Housekeeper will have sufficient time off for rest over the weekend and will typically perform better when at work.
The more straightforward a housekeeping job is in terms of duties, the easier the position is to fill. The most popular housekeeping jobs are the ones with pure cleaning duties. Having said this, we have many housekeepers that are flexible in terms of duties.

Driving housekeepers in London and outside
Many clients residing in the outskirts of London or in the countryside seek a driving Housekeeper. It’s unusual that housekeepers drive. Especially Filipino housekeepers do not drive. Because there are such few driving housekeepers available, these positions are more difficult to fill. Therefore, we suggest thinking of other routes of covering your driving needs. Using taxis, or even a part-time chauffeur could be more affordable and practical than having your housekeeper drive.
