What precautions for cleaner coming into house?

Has anyone had any discussions with their cleaners about how to protect everyone? I am anxious but I don’t want to cancel my lovely cleaner because that would be a shitty thing to do. So I’m wondering how to handle the fact that I don’t know whose houses she’s just been in and what the risk is.

I’m a cleaner and I’m carrying on as normal. I’ve messaged all customers asking them to let me know ASAP if they’ve travelled or if there’s a chance they’ve been in contact with someone who is infected.
I’m also being more thorough with disinfecting light switches, door handles, window handles etc

The only thing I'm worried about is if we have to self isolate and our cleaner can't come as usual - I'll still be paying her the usual rate, it's really not fair on her otherwise.

If You are self isolating then you can't have a cleaner in. I'm not even sure how it's going to work with HCPs but you will have to clean your own house for a bit sorry.

And yes, pay her, obviously
