Hello Michelle, Thank you for writing to us. It sounds like you are having a challenging time, but remaining professional and focused which is fantastic. Our advice is that good communication is key, the family might not realise that there is a problem, and if you don’t explain it to them they don’t have a chance to help you. Do you have a contract or formal agreement with them? I would personally recommend that you arrange a time to meet with the family (outside of your working hours) and just sit down and explain your frustrations. Make sure you don’t make it personal, just focus on the positive and how much you want to help the family but you don’t feel you can achieve your tasks in the set time, and would they feel comfortable with you extending your time (paid) or allowing you to be flexible if they need you to do more tasks each day. Hopefully once you’ve had a positive and honest conversation with them, you can all put a plan together to make it work – you should be paid for your time, and in turn the family if they can’t afford to pay you more, then they should respect the hours you are scheduled to work and let you stick to it. Good luck!

Hello I used to work for a company cleaning homes. I was sent to this home once a week for 3 hours of general cleaning. After I quit that job I continued to clean for the same house. Now I seem to be cleaning up messes after children and young adults when this job was for an elderly person. I don’t have enough time to do the general cleaning because I’m cleaning up messes all the time messes that people should be cleaning up after themselves. I’m hired for 3 hours I’m paid for 3 hours but most of the time I am there about 4 hours sometimes four and a half hours a week. It’s so bad to the point where I don’t even want to go to this house anymore I only stay there because of the elderly person that I have become close to. I have also taken on care for the elderly person when adult children and grandchildren are there and won’t do certain things for the mother and grandmother that I end up doing for her as part of the cleaning time. I leave every week feeling very taken for granted and used. The adult child does not believe in letting her children clean up after themselves I guess I am expected to do so. Which I have to do in order to do general cleaning first. Thank you for any advice you can give me have a great day.
