Maintaining a household takes a lot of work. Chores, both indoors and outdoors, can take hours out of a person's week. On average women in the US spend 8.5 hours a week managing their households and performing maintenance while men spent around 5.4 hours. Over time, this really adds up for both genders. However, women still take on the majority of the housework inside. Changes in the home and in lifestyle can make cleaning up indoors even more difficult. Here are 3 times where house cleaning services may be a good choice.
After Having A Baby
Nothing changes a person's life quite like having a baby. Newborns are very high maintenance and often leave new parents exhausted due to lack of sleep. Whether it's a firstborn or one of many, housework often falls by the wayside. One way to keep the home tidy after childbirth is by hiring a cleaning service. In the weeks immediately following childbirth, many women are instructed to only do light housework. This can be a big problem since women often do more of the indoor housework on average. A cleaning service can take care of the deep cleaning that new mothers are unable to do.
After A Big Promotion
Work is a big part of many Americans' lives. Around half of all full time workers in the US report working more than 40 hours a week. This leaves little time to see to things at home. A big promotion at work with more responsibilities at work can make it even harder to get home and spend time cleaning up. Many people also end up taking their work home also by constantly checking their email and spending time on the phone. A cleaning service can help get rid of the dust bunnies while the homeowner is busy taking care of work.
While Caring For Aging Relatives
One of the biggest challenges of aging is having less energy to do housework. Simple things like laundry and washing dishes become harder and harder with age. This is a great time to hire a service that will do these chores. Having someone come in and take care of the housework can even help the elderly stay in their homes longer instead of having to move to a nursing home. Hiring a cleaning service is a great way to help take care of aging relatives and to be able to spend more time with them instead of worrying about undone chores.
