Being broke but wanting a cleaner

I don't know if this is completely pie in the sky but I'm so exhausted from parenting and working full time that although I do keep the house fairly ok I never get a chance to give it a proper clean and in fact haven't hoovered for ages.

I'm still broke despite working so much but am wondering if there is any way I could manage to get a cleaner in regardless to keep me sane..is anyone else in this position?

Can you just get someone in once a month to do a longer deep clean rather than weekly,

I am a cm. I have had sahm’s send there children to me as it is cheaper than a cleaner then could clean the house themselves with no children under there feet creating more mess

That's a good idea!

I go to bed the same time as the dc twice a week and wake up at 5am. I hoover then - kids sleep through anything but might not be a good idea if you live in a flat.
I’d rather spend the money on having a meal out once a week when I don’t have to cook or wash up Smile

That is impressive!

I'm a night owl me so I can't see me managing to do that. It's a great way to deal with it though.
