Busy days? Evening household assistance available until 10pm.

Household Assistance

Everyday household help, just the way you need it.

Some weeks you just need another pair of hands. I help with the jobs that pile up at home, one visit at a time, and I do them the way you would want them done.

Prices start at $70 an hour on weekdays, with a two-hour minimum.

What a visit looks like

A typical two-hour visit

Here is one example of how two hours can go. Your visit follows your list, and you can change it every time.

  • A load of laundry washed, dried, folded and put away
  • A few meals prepared in your kitchen for the week ahead
  • A grocery run or parcel drop-off on the way
  • Time for one small admin job, like booking an appointment

Two hours on a weekday: $140

What I can help with

Six ways to lighten the load

Home Cooking & Meal Preparation

I can help prepare meals in your own kitchen, using your ingredients and your equipment. We talk through the meals, dietary preferences and preparation tasks beforehand, so everything is ready the way you like it.

  • Meals prepared in your kitchen
  • Your ingredients and equipment
  • Preferences discussed in advance

The laundry basket never seems to empty. I will take it from wash to wardrobe so you come home to fresh, folded clothes.

  • Washing and drying
  • Folding
  • Putting clothing away

Ironing and bed-making are not included.

I can pick up what you need so you do not have to squeeze it between everything else. Errands are done in my own vehicle, with the details agreed beforehand.

  • Grocery shopping
  • Pharmacy or parcel collection where appropriate
  • Returns and small errands
  • Other agreed tasks
A styled desk with a planner, tidy folders, a cup of tea and fresh flowers

A little organisation goes a long way. I can help keep the running of your household on track so nothing slips through the cracks.

  • Appointment bookings
  • Diary organisation
  • Contacting tradespeople
  • Coordinating routine household matters

Decluttering & Home Organisation

Sorting through belongings is easier with company. I can help you work through cupboards and rooms, or prepare for a downsize, at a pace that feels comfortable.

  • Sorting belongings
  • Organising cupboards
  • Preparing for downsizing

No heavy lifting or specialist removal work. By arrangement I can prepare selected sale listings, but I do not manage buyers, money or collections.

Your visit, your list

Choose different tasks each visit

You are not locked into one job. During a booked visit you can combine any suitable tasks, and change them as your week changes. It suits busy households, people with demanding work weeks, anyone preparing for a downsize, and anyone who would simply like their weekend back.
