my cleaner is mum of 2 boys, in the past she has been very good and reliable, she went off on at leave and had her boy 9 months ago. She came back to work after 6 months and brings her baby boy with her whilst her eldest is at school. I dont mind her bringing her little boy whilst she cleans. She may be here for 2.5 or 3 hors but she only charges me for 2.
Her oldest is now on school holidays and her mum helps out to look after the kids. She has let me down twice before in the last 4 weeks and when I text to ask when she is available I never hear back till the day before or on the day. My oh thinks we should get rid of her as she is not reliable, but I can sympathasise as she is a mum too. Not sure what to do
I was going to carry on and once school hols are over, make it clear to her that I need someone every week on this day and this time and if she cant commit then I will have to find someone else.....is that too harsh???
