        Housekeepers from Russia

        Every well-to-do family, and even a family with an average income, would undoubtedly like to have a housekeeper. 50-60 years ago, a quarter of Moscow families had part-time housekeepers. Their low cost was due to the fact that in large cities there were many young women who moved there from dying villages. Poor, with little ambition and little to no training, they often agreed to remove the burden of cleaning up and cooking from women for a meager salary.

        Men in the Soviet era were often underpaid and couldn’t provide for their family on their own, so women had to work 8 hours a day just like men, and they did not have the time and energy to cook and clean up, go shopping and even raise children. Therefore, housekeepers were not only in well-to-do and educated families, as shown in the films of those years, but also in quite modest working class households.

        Now, when shopping isn’t so burdensome, but apartments on average have become incomparably larger and grandmothers don’t do household chores for their children and granddchildren anymore, the modern family undoubtedly needs a helping hand. A modern woman wants to be attractive, fit, healthy, have an exciting life, dovote her time to her family and job, and at the same time have a comfortable and clean home. And this is undoubtedly her right and even duty to herself and her family. But there are only 24 hours in a day, and her energy isn’t infinite.

        That is why it is absolutely necessary to hire a trustworthy housekeeper for your home.

        Our agency is ready to help you choose domestic help - responsible, disciplined housekeepers with checkable work history. It is a delicate matter since you let a stranger into your home and trust her with your daily life. The process of hiring a housekeeper should be done very rigorously, and, taking into account everything mentioned above, word-of-mouth recommendations should not be considered a reliable source of information. We guarantee that your housekeeper will undertake all household chores while being absolutely honest, reliable and will not share information about your family and home with anyone.

        A part-time housekeeper will adjust to your schedule, whether you want her to work every day or 2-3 times a week.
        It all depends on the needs of a particular family and the desire of the lady of the house.

        A HOUSEKEEPER USUALLY HAS THE FOLLOWING DUTIES:

        • House cleaning, both light and general cleaning;
        • Laundry and ironing;
        • Grocery shopping;
        • Cooking and doing the dishes;
        • Running errands for the employer.

        Naturally, any variations from the above points are possible. And most importantly, our agency are responsible for our employees throughout the entire employment period. We work on the basis of long-term successful cooperation with each candidate.
