Can anyone recommend a good domestic cleaner in the Lewes area? Thanks, BM

It'll probably be another 'busy mum'.

BM - There's an ad from Svetlana in the Free Ads section.

Don't get many 'busy dads' advertising for this. They have busy mums to do it for them.

And the 'busy mums' with well-off husbands get 'busy mums' with poorer husbands to do their dirty work for them.

I had formed the impression that Svetlana, and others, were glad of the work. I was on the verge of getting 'someone in' a couple of days a week to help keep on top of things while I work but I'm having second thoughts now. Are you suggesting that hiring a cleaner is exploitative ?

A Dad at my son's school is just setting up a local home cleaning co-operative, I'll try and get his details tomorrow for you?

Thanks mccauley - that would be v helpful.
Love popeye's answer - I'd have been so disappointed if I'd had only sensible responses!
Got to go...

I used to do cleaning work. Nothing wrong with it. I've done worse jobs. I've also employed cleaners. One of them was a 'busy mum' three were students and one owned the cleaning agency. Perhaps Pedant needs to stop being so judgemental. If you are in such a bad mood perhaps you need to get hubby to do his share of the cleaning. Or if you are the hubby, Pendant, I hope you do your share.

Busy Mum, P Mag/Gaia is the Dad I mentioned earlier.

The gender assumptions in Pedant's reply is shocking. People should consider busy mums may have well paying jobs and support their husbands, for example. Certainly I will be looking after the children, working and paying a cleaner in our house.
