Their cleaners? I assume we’re meant to do this?

I have for the next 4 weeks, but have paid her in advance. I’m then going to play it by ear after that to see how the world is going. It may well be that I drop her down to every other week and keep paying her even if she doesn’t come in. Or I might get her to come but go out for those 2 hours for a walk or something. She’s self employed so I don’t want to just drop her

My worry is if they had it they’d spread from house to house would they as they cleaned. Even if I didn’t see her

Just making this decision myself - she usually comes every other Thursday and is due this Thursday. I think I will pay for the next two sessions and advise her we will review the situation then. Want to be fair to her but don’t want her to clean and can’t pay indefinitely for a service I won’t be getting (through no fault of hers!).

Anyone else have any thoughts?

Just trying to work this one out too.

I’ve just texted my lady and said I will pay for the next two cleans (she usually comes every two weeks) then if coronavirus is still going on after that time then I will need to leave it until the world has returned to normal. I hope that’s fair.
My DH has just taken a pay cut and a reduction of his hours so we are also taking a financial impact.

Not sure, mine came today but isn't due again for two weeks.

I told mine not to come , a couple of days ago.
Have asked her to send me her bank details so I can still pay her (usually pay cash).
