”Homes are meant to be lived in and that means mess and clutter but then I come and make a home tidy for people to enjoy their time and relax” 

What does the perfect home to clean look like?

Every home is different and I always come prepared to make a difference to that home I am assigned to. Homes are meant to be lived in and that means mess and clutter but then I come and make a home tidy for people to enjoy their time and relax and not worry about cleaning. That for me makes a perfect home.

Why did you apply to Tidy?

I genuinely love cleaning and tidying things. There is something about organising stuff that is relaxing for me therefore when I found this job, I already know that I am all in for the task.

What is the most challenging part of your job?

Definitely my thoroughness and being detail-oriented while also making sure that I do my job well within the hours assigned to me.

What is the most enjoyable part?

That shiny kitchen and bathroom, the clutter-free living space and newly sorted beds are so pleasing to the eyes and that for me is the best part of the job when you see the difference you've made for people's homes.

Favorite dish?

Hard to pick one but I would say that I really love this meat stew that we make in the pressure cooker with lots of vegetables and tender meat that melts like butter. So comforting and easy to make.

Hobbies?

I am an artist so during my free time and days off, I paint and draw in my tiny studio. I also love sculpting miniatures for dollhouse collectors. I guess everything comes down to art.
