I am 71 and I love being a wife, mother, grandmother and homemaker. You are a smart woman and it’s so refreshing to see a younger woman who loves her work and is honest, thoughtful and genuine. Your integrity is obvious.You give me hope in the younger generation. I wish you were my next door neighbor and we could chat across the table! I pray God’s richest blessings for you and your family.
Hello! New subscriber here. Just had to tell you I zone cleaned my kitchen along with your video yesterday. (Had to pause it several times to keep up.) my 19 year old son came home and said, “It looks really clean in here.” No one has ever, ever said that to me before!!!! Thank you! ❤
Ma’am! I’m sitting here after watching your video and using your tips for shiny glass from another video. The tv reflection has my coffee table looking like a tv screen! Keep the tips coming! You’re are a bad girl ( in a good way😂). Gotta go make my bed like this now.
Hello Stephanie! I can’t thank you enough for your videos. I am so done with keeping a messy home. I am using you as both a teacher and motivational inspiration. I am at level 101 but I do know when a person KNOWS their field and walks in excellence. Thank you for this ministry; it is changing my life! Blessings in everything you want, need or dream of! 🙏🏾❤
Please make lots more client home cleaning videos I am always searching for them but there's not many on RUclips, absolutely by far my favorite God bless you and your family❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Christina!!! I will do what I can. You don’t find them because they are absolutely not easy to do… it’s not easy to set up recordings in client homes because it’s awkward and you have to get permission, it takes forever etc. so when I do these it’s usually a last minute decision based on what I want to show and talk about. In other words, they’re never planned. I just think of an idea and whip out my phone😁
Well you did an amazing job and I really really enjoyed it I have always enjoyed cleaning but always focus on getting more done instead of thoroughly cleaning it and you have helped me with that so thank you
Didn’t know this about the mirrors or the showers….-and a lot of other things you mentioned. Love you videos and your integrity! ❤ Girl you could run a corporation for ANY company! You are amazing! Your lessons are universal for every area of life!
Great video! A lot of useful information for not only someone starting a business; but someone like me interested in hiring a professional. I’m 72 and have some health issues but because of you, I just take my time and make it shine!❤️❤️
Rondastewart I had a cleaner because I have mobility problems and couldn't manage to the standard I used to. I had a lady come in once a week to vacuum all rooms and mop all the floors without carpet. Talking with her I thought she would be very thorough from what she said, but she mopped every room with the same mop pad, from bathroom to kitchen etc. She did move the small items like decor and vacuum behind, but never did the edges of the carpet or the backs of the stairs and just rushed through everything. It was kind of helpful because I didn't have to move decor to do behind and it was better than nothing but I did end up letting her go. If I'd seen something like Stephanie video it would have been so helpful.
Excellent video tutorial of home cleaning! The lady I work for will always send me when a client is a bit picky. I do show attention to details. And even though I clean no more than 4 or 5 homes a week, I take time to ensure I do an excellent job for client and my boss. Thank you for sharing your expertise. 👍🏼💜
Hey Tammy! It sounds like you have an awesome reputation and your employer trust you to do a beautiful job🩷 I love to hear this… keep up the excellent work🤗
You did a good job cleaning your client home as always. I like how you teaching the difference between a cleaning and housekeeping service. Thanks for sharing the cleaning lessons for us. I enjoyed it and I know your client going to be happy.
Hi Stephanie Enjoy the video!! always learning something that i can definitely use and willing to try you are so great in what you do inspiration/motivation and you are a great teacher 🥰
Just wanted to say..you are so nice. Not many people would think of others like you do. Whether its a customer or not you are a nice person to think of the things you do for your customer. Also totally so so agree with the appearance of yourself. Ironed clothing is so important to me and my mom. Too bad its not important to so many. If only they could see what a difference it makes. I see people even on the news cast. Anchors wearing totally wrinkked clothes and to look presentable. So many women i worked with in an office setting wearing short short skirts and look like they are ready for a beach with flip flops even. So sad how people let themselves go. Thank you for your videos.
Stephanie you are a FABULOUS cleaning lady! You clean and tidy with as much care and consideration as you would your own home. I agree with everything you said. I have been a cleaner in a school, doctors surgery and offices, and I always took pride in my work and enjoyed it. The first clean was always the hardest in all the places because the previous cleaners obviously didn't care about doing the job properly. I enjoyed this video, and all your videos. See you next week 😊👍. Oh and labels and zips sticking out from blankets and cushions etc are a bug bear of mine! And having curtains pulled neatly. I'm still trying to train my fiance on curtain pulling after 14 years 🤣
Fabulous content, Stephanie!! I couldn't agree more to paying attention to detail! Yes, it matters, ALL of it😊. I've commented before that I'm in the business. For 20+ yrs...but there's always something to learn. I appreciated especially the part on how to clean walk in showers. Girl! Can I say I despise to clean them?! You gave some very good pointers! One question....I'm a stickler for having perfectly mopped hardwood floors. I have a hard time finding a mop system that meets my perfectionism. I admit, I'll clean a huge area (occasionally) on my hands and knees, but that isn't doable for my knees every time, obviously. What brand have you found works the best? Thanks again for giving me the zeal for cleaning. It has made a difference. One of my clients sent me a thank you card this past week. They noticed a difference, not that I wasn't doing a good job, but going beyond and doing that extra detail TRULY make a difference ❤.
Well first of all, this comment was AWESOME Andrea! Thank you so much for sharing with me♥️ now the flat mop that you see on the video is my best friend!!!! I don’t use any other mop. They are lightweight, adjustable and just very comfortable to use. I got move at Costco, but you can also get them on Amazon. They don’t have the EXACT one however it’s very similar and works the same. Type in professional flat mop and they will come up. Be sure to get the one that looks almost identical to mine, because some of them will not have a strong poll. Let me know if you need help and I’ll be happy to. You can send me a pic of what you found to my email and I’ll tell you if that’s what you need.
Hi Stephanie !! I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who doesn't like tags and seams showing !! Love the videos and the motivation !! Have a great week !! ⚜️💜💛💚⚜️
Stephanie! You are awesome! There just aren't many people in any business these days that take such care, pride and joy in their work. It is a delight to see. Your clients are so lucky to have you! 🥰🥰
Stephanie, such an informative video tonight! Thank you! Not only did I learn some new pointers about cleaning my own home but also the Ins and outs of having your own business and clients. Some things I haven’t even thought about. It is always such a pleasure to watch your videos. You are so knowledgeable and helpful. Hope you and your hubby have a great week. Looking forward to next Sunday’s video. Take care. Cookie in Mandeville Louisiana
Thank you Cookie! You are always so sweet🩷 I’m happy that you are finding the content informative, that’s great!! It’s lovely to see you as always Cookie 🍪
Oh my goodness! What will I learn next from Stephanie? Today I learned the shower guard at the bottom of the shower door comes off. I've always tried cleaning it attached to the door and it is not easy! Thanks, Stephanie!
I can’t thank you enough!!! I love to clean like you but only when I’m in the mood. You’ve changed all that! I clean every day. Learning so much. If I were younger I would clean houses. I never thought of it before. God bless your love for your work unto Him!
A fairly new subscriber here! I'm not a professional cleaner nor I'm looking to be one. And I haven't commenting on your videos before, but now I have to. I have gotten so much inspiration and little tricks from you, which actually make a real difference! I have learned, that even tho I need to do a "not-so-perfect" speed clean most of the time, I can take my time every couple of weeks and just take my time on cleaning my home. From this video I learned that you can actually remove those plastic barriers on your shower doors. I don't know why I haven't recognized that before, but it really made a really significant difference! And I decided that while I'm in the shower, I just might as well put the bottles I'm using back with the label facing onwards. Takes perhaps 10 seconds of your time, but looks so much prettier! ❤ So thank you for what you do and greetings from Finland!
Hey there 🤗 thank you so much for this wonderful comment♥️ I’m glad that you decided to leave one today! I’m happy that you are inspired. Yes, taking your time to get it all done and right makes a difference, it’s all about taking the time. Thank you for letting me know what you learned from this video, I thought that was awesome. Enjoy the rest of your week♥️
I love your channel...only thing I would change is more videos. :) My husband and I enjoy watching these as I have him hooked. Did you say you have another channel? Please provide link as I love listening to you! Your voice is so calming, encouraging and so true!!! Keep up the good work on bringing us all together...love your talks! :) :)
You are the epitome of positivity, talking about the only thing you would change is more videos… don’t be over here trying to make me cry, I’m already a big baby as my husband says😂 THANK YOU so much! And tell your hubby I said hello♥️
Wow!!! I learned SO MUCH in this video!! I have never had someone come clean my home so I have never thought much about the process. It made me sad that there can be so many negative experiences but I like that you shared ways to avoid those! I now have a better understanding of the whole dynamic should I ever be in a position to use that service. I really like cleaning my own home but ya never know what could happen! Ya also learned me another little trick in the wiping down all the bottles. It never occurred to me to do that and the face all the labels out on stuff when cleaning. It’s those little details that are subtle but make a big impact on the look of a room! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!! You are so appreciated!!! ❤
Hey Lea!! Yes it can for sure be some negative experiences in this business. It happens a lot as with anything else dealing with people. I glad to hear that you all are receiving the message of both sides. It’s so great to see you as always lovely lady🩷🩷🩷🤗
Excellent,Superb,enjoyable video. You not only told people you showed them how to be successful. You are amazing Stephanie. I’m looking forward to next weeks video and I hope your❤is feeling better.
Heyyy sis 🩵 you did an awesome job on ur clients home… You were very detailed on what you were doing and I loved and enjoyed it 😍 Thanks for sharing love 💗
I just got my Amazon order for the stainless steel and now you said it’s not good. As you said we wouldn’t know but you do. It cleaned the bottom of my oven and dishwasher pretty good. Mine get bad from my dogs
I am so glad I found you. Your clients are blessed to have you. I was going to hire a maid, but by watching your videos and following your tips with the zone cleaning tutorials. I am sure I can love on my home.
Hey Sis🩷 thank you so much for this! And I’m glad that you are able to find motivation here to get things going. The more that you do it, the easier it will become to continuously love on your home🩷
I enjoyed this video. I find it relaxing to watch till the end. I like the way you angled the pillow. That is not something I would have thought to do. I will try it. Many blessings to you dear.
As a business owner of nearly 20 years, contracts actually can be terminated if there is termination language included in the contract. So the contract is considered in force as long as the termination clause is not activated, or the expiration date has not arrived.
With CLEANING contracts in most cases there is a penalty for terminating the contract, especially on the clients part. So what I am conveying to the people is don’t do it because they are completely unnecessary. And we all know that it’s not as simple as you’re saying.
@allthingshousekeeping Thanks for responding. I was simply relaying that termination CAN be simple if you clearly outline the stipulations in the contract itself. No arguments intended. I just don't want people to become squeamish about the word "contract", whatever line of work they're in. They can be really useful documents.
@faithtvonline you’re welcome and no argument here either. I was responding. But in the cleaning industry, which is what is being discussed HERE, not any other business, are totally unnecessary and never needed. Contracts are hard to maneuver out of and the client in the CLEANING industry always gets screwed and so I’m not saying that contracts are never necessary… I’m talking cleaning here and they are never necessary with CLEANING.
Not specifically. But I make beds in just about all of my videos. The key is to pull the sheets tight and making sure everything is straight😊 But I could probably do a video on it.
Enjoyed your video. Lots of wonderful tips. I loved how you take your time and make sure everything is perfect. I can tell you live what you do. I have been watching for awhile and I think this is your best video yet. I love learning new things. I love keeping my home visitor ready.
Great video as usual, I have learned so much! I’m wanting to find a Housekeeper and have a few questions; 1) will they clean with us being home? I’m basically home bound and get out very little due to medical problems. 2) is there anything in particular that I should ask or look for in addition to the things you describe in this video? I did take notes☺️ Thanks so much Stephanie!💜
Hey Sally🤗 thank you so much! 1) Yes, 99 percent of services will clean while you’re home. 2) I think I covered just about everything in the video. Those are the basics to getting starting. I would emphasize though to be sure you see a checklist and look around to make sure the cleaning is to YOUR standards before they leave. Oh and also, get a full understanding of what you are paying for exactly… like what does your service include for whatever rate they’re charging. I think that’s it Sally. You should be good with that🤗 Let me know how it goes.
Hi Stephanie I love to clean that candle what I do. I take clorox wipe, and they come out like new and the shower head. I take it down and used to oh picks to clean the little holes. Loves to have everything neat. Thanks for the video
Stephanie TFS I took in so many tips from you today. Very good teacher and professional! . I know that your client was very happy and pleased! A job well done sis. Much love too you❤
As Always I enjoyed your training video. I have 1 request… Would you please list the products you use in each video that would help because many times I am not able to write down everything you say and see what you are showing because I am hard of hearing. It would be greatly appreciated.
Ok… I can most certainly try and remember to do that🤗 and also I’ll start listing the products in the description box, so always check there for the list just in case you or I miss something in the video♥️
I would love to have a local cleaning service as professional and detail oriented as you. Alas, i only have myself! 😊 As i watched you clean this bathroom, i was waiting to see if you have any sure-fire ways to clean glass shower doors! I hate that job!
Hey Kathiee🤗 I’m going to link my bathroom cleaning video here. But I will tell you that I use all purpose and Dawn. BATHROOM DEEP CLEAN ✨LIKE A PRO | BATHROOM CLEANING TIPS | CLEANING MOTIVATION ruclips.net/video/-rqOOQTqkco/видео.html
It could either. Glass can be a problem as well depending on the quality. Try using an old tee shirt (cut it) and see if that helps. But yes, using the wrong rag is problematic
Thank you for such a helpful video!! I was wondering if you could do one on like homes that have been somewhat neglected or cleaned quickly but maybe not as thorough. Like for example like how to teach homeowners in a business way and like toilets that i cant get the poo stains out the bottom if you have tips or products used on houses like that. Sorry if i drew out the questions having trouble with my words today. Thank you
Hey Sarah🤗 So, I don’t really clean that much anymore as I’m slowly moving away from the business to do other things. I pick and choose what I do now which is very limited. So you may not ever get to see that and I also don’t clean dirty homes. I’ve paid my dues where that’s concerned and so I’ve been stopped doing those and also, when I record in a clients home, it’s never planned. I just decided really at the last minute to pull out my phone and get clips simply because it’s not easy recording in clients homes and it takes FOREVER! So I don’t take requests for that because I just record only what I deem is necessary😊 BUT… if I ever come across that I’ll be sure and show it if I can. Also, I have never seen those type of stains in the toilet that won’t come off and no need to apologize😊
Ohh ok im new to your channel but i totally understand now. Im really just trying to help get a family member house back to basics so all they have to do is maintain going forward. and its been a lot mentally and physically. I watched your video for product tips and efficiency type things so i could get done easier and quicker. Cant be quick enough for me 😂 Seems like the stain is all the way by the water hole in the toilet and the standard blue toilet cleaner with brush isnt gettn to it or something. Ill keep trying. Thanks for responding.
Hey Krystal🤗that’s really up to you. I, personally don’t like to use the client’s products. I usually just help them to understand that my products are clean and that they won’t have to worry about being overwhelmed with the smell and that I like to use my own products because it’s what I find to throughly clean and that they will get the house in the best shape possible. So in other words I don’t use their products because I just get them to trust mine😊
It’s good in that those are the products that they find give them the best results(former housekeeper for 19 yrs). Imao the housekeepers should charge $2 or so less if the client wants to furnish their own products. However, most clients don’t have pumice stones for cleaning under toilet rim, etc, or micro fiber or the yellow cloths to dust with.
@@TheStephanieWay I was responding to a question by a commenter & was giving my point of view as a 19 yr. housekeeper re is it a good idea if the client wants the housekeeper to bring her own cleaning supplies. My comment got placed at top for some reason. 🤷🏼♀️
That client had a lot of stuff on the bathroom counter. Do you ever suggest finding a home in a drawer or cabinet? Or at least a tray to corral the items on the countertop? It would be so much nicer for them and easier to keep clean, neat, and less cluttered.
I honestly think that would be kind of rude to ask my clients to contain their stuff.. It’s not really my business to worry about what’s on their counters, I’m just there to clean and to me it wasn’t a problem.
I agree with you. Most of my client’s had minimal products on the counters, but I had a customer who had a lot out & she asked me would it be better if I put them away in a shoe box & I said yes. She was very thoughtful. Clients don’t realize that when they get estimates they should do it right after the house is clean because they’ll get a better rate than when there’s things out of place all over the house. Ideally when a housekeeper gets a new client, they should look at the house first and after they’re hired it probably would be a good idea for the housekeeper to take pics of the condition it’s in because that’s probably how they’ll find the house each time-the more clutter the higher the price.
I literally said in the video, that the cleaner can use their discretion. Not all toilets are filthy as you should have seen in the video where the bathroom had barely been used, if at all. So I know what I’m talking about thank you.
I heard that no discounts! Quality work needs no discount. Great video. Im not a professional in the industry, but your tips and tricks have really transformed my home. Thank u!
Good evening Stephanie! 🫶🏻 I’m a former housekeeper for 19 years & I really enjoy your videos! Did you get any training before you started your business or any cleaning advice from anyone? I’m sure your clients must really appreciate you! I may need a housekeeper in the future. Are you in CA by any chance? Ty. 🫶🏻
I know someone who was working for a new cleaning company & they ran out of rags to clean with & the owner told them to just use the dirty ones from a previous house that was cleaned! Needless to say that person quit after that because they couldn’t be a part of that. 🫠
That same EXACT thing happened to me once as well and that was my last day and I didn’t clean that house as I was speaking to the owner from the the clients driveway, so once they told me to do that, I just started my car and left.
I can top that , at 15 I was a bus gal in a restaurant, we reused water glasses as dish washer didn't keep up ! Several times .....also at like 26 , I had a Manger tell me to pick up the bread that fell on the floor and serve it .. watch were you eat ...I'm 47 today . Really I don't trust places today !
I am 71 and I love being a wife, mother, grandmother and homemaker.
You are a smart woman and it’s so refreshing to see a younger woman who loves her work and is honest, thoughtful and genuine. Your integrity is obvious.You give me hope in the younger generation. I wish you were my next door neighbor and we could chat across the table!

Hey Wendelin🤗
Oh my goodness! What will I learn next from Stephanie? Today I learned the shower guard at the bottom of the shower door comes off. I've always tried cleaning it attached to the door and it is not easy! Thanks, Stephanie!
You are so welcome Marion♥️
Hey Stephanie you did a AWESOME job!!!!!!
Thank you so much!!! 🩷
Great
Great work steph,wish I
could work with you,
I can’t thank you enough!!! I love to clean like you but only when I’m in the mood. You’ve changed all that! I clean every day. Learning so much. If I were younger I would clean houses. I never thought of it before. God bless your love for your work unto Him!
You’re very welcome Pamela♥️ thank you as well for being sweet🤗
I really appreciate the pride and professionalism you take in your work. You're awesome!
Hey Susan🤗 thank you so much♥️
A fairly new subscriber here! I'm not a professional cleaner nor I'm looking to be one. And I haven't commenting on your videos before, but now I have to. I have gotten so much inspiration and little tricks from you, which actually make a real difference!
I have learned, that even tho I need to do a "not-so-perfect" speed clean most of the time, I can take my time every couple of weeks and just take my time on cleaning my home.
From this video I learned that you can actually remove those plastic barriers on your shower doors. I don't know why I haven't recognized that before, but it really made a really significant difference! And I decided that while I'm in the shower, I just might as well put the bottles I'm using back with the label facing onwards. Takes perhaps 10 seconds of your time, but looks so much prettier! ❤
So thank you for what you do and greetings from Finland!
Hey there 🤗 thank you so much for this wonderful comment♥️ I’m glad that you decided to leave one today! I’m happy that you are inspired. Yes, taking your time to get it all done and right makes a difference, it’s all about taking the time. Thank you for letting me know what you learned from this video, I thought that was awesome. Enjoy the rest of your week♥️
I love your channel...only thing I would change is more videos. :) My husband and I enjoy watching these as I have him hooked. Did you say you have another channel? Please provide link as I love listening to you! Your voice is so calming, encouraging and so true!!! Keep up the good work on bringing us all together...love your talks! :) :)
You are the epitome of positivity, talking about the only thing you would change is more videos… don’t be over here trying to make me cry, I’m already a big baby as my husband says😂 THANK YOU so much! And tell your hubby I said hello♥️
Love your attention to detail. I love the way you angled the bed pillows ❤
Yayyy sis! Thank you so much beautiful 💕
Love, love, love, your videos!!!
Thank you! I love you being here 🩷
New wife and just found you. Wow! You're my role model.
Congratulations 🎊🍾🎉 on your nuptials!!!♥️🤗
Hey, Stephanie, I tried your method of wiping stairs with a damp cloth. The carpet ended up looking great. Fluffed up and newer. Thanks for the tip.
That’s awesome Rebecca, you are exactly right about the results🤗 thank you for letting me know 💕
Hey Stephanie, great video, I'm learning a lot and using your tips to make my space even neater and cleaner each day. Hope you have a great week.
Hey Pink🤗 that’s awesome news!! I love that🩷 thank you and you have a great week as well!
Stephanie G, thank you so much. You are amazing. I love your videos.
Wow!!! I learned SO MUCH in this video!! I have never had someone come clean my home so I have never thought much about the process. It made me sad that there can be so many negative experiences but I like that you shared ways to avoid those! I now have a better understanding of the whole dynamic should I ever be in a position to use that service. I really like cleaning my own home but ya never know what could happen! Ya also learned me another little trick in the wiping down all the bottles. It never occurred to me to do that and the face all the labels out on stuff when cleaning. It’s those little details that are subtle but make a big impact on the look of a room! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!! You are so appreciated!!! ❤
Hey Lea!! Yes it can for sure be some negative experiences in this business. It happens a lot as with anything else dealing with people. I glad to hear that you all are receiving the message of both sides. It’s so great to see you as always lovely lady🩷🩷🩷🤗
Great advice.... Love your videos so much,You are my favorite.

I just got my Amazon order for the stainless steel and now you said it’s not good. As you said we wouldn’t know but you do. It cleaned the bottom of my oven and dishwasher pretty good. Mine get bad from my dogs
Hey Denise🥰 yeah the one from Amazon is a foam and not an oil. Which one did you receive love?
I ended up with the clean and polish one
They both are clean and polish. I was asking if it came as oil or a foam like.
I am so glad I found you. Your clients are blessed to have you. I was going to hire a maid, but by watching your videos and following your tips with the zone cleaning tutorials. I am sure I can love on my home.
Hey Sis🩷 thank you so much for this! And I’m glad that you are able to find motivation here to get things going. The more that you do it, the easier it will become to continuously love on your home🩷
I love all your pro cleaning tips. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you’re here🤗

Hey Stephanie happy Sunday and here watching.
Hey Donzell, thank you!!!
I enjoyed this video. I find it relaxing to watch till the end. I like the way you angled the pillow. That is not something I would have thought to do. I will try it. Many blessings to you dear.
Hey Cherrie, thank you ☺️ definitely give that a try. Don’t be afraid to be different! Much love to you Cheerie💕
As a business owner of nearly 20 years, contracts actually can be terminated if there is termination language included in the contract. So the contract is considered in force as long as the termination clause is not activated, or the expiration date has not arrived.
With CLEANING contracts in most cases there is a penalty for terminating the contract, especially on the clients part. So what I am conveying to the people is don’t do it because they are completely unnecessary. And we all know that it’s not as simple as you’re saying.
@allthingshousekeeping Thanks for responding. I was simply relaying that termination CAN be simple if you clearly outline the stipulations in the contract itself. No arguments intended. I just don't want people to become squeamish about the word "contract", whatever line of work they're in. They can be really useful documents.
@faithtvonline you’re welcome and no argument here either. I was responding. But in the cleaning industry, which is what is being discussed HERE, not any other business, are totally unnecessary and never needed. Contracts are hard to maneuver out of and the client in the CLEANING industry always gets screwed and so I’m not saying that contracts are never necessary… I’m talking cleaning here and they are never necessary with CLEANING.
This was so informative as a potential customer.
I’m so happy 🩷 thank you so much!
You are amazing.
Thank you Lisa♥️
Great video. You can tell you love what you do❤
Thank you so much! Cleaning is just very relaxing to me💕
Do you have a video or tips on how you make a bed so well?
Not specifically. But I make beds in just about all of my videos. The key is to pull the sheets tight and making sure everything is straight😊 But I could probably do a video on it.
Love it… love how you explain thing and actually show us techniques! Thank you! 💕
You’re very welcome! Thank you for being here🩷
Wonderful!! New subbie!
WELCOME 🤗 I’m so happy to have you here!!!!🩷
Enjoyed your video. Lots of wonderful tips. I loved how you take your time and make sure everything is perfect. I can tell you live what you do. I have been watching for awhile and I think this is your best video yet. I love learning new things. I love keeping my home visitor ready.
Hey Jean🤗 thank you so much!💕
Excellent video. Thank you Mrs .Stephanie 🙋♀️
Thank you Robyn☺️ you’re very welcome 🩷
Great video as usual, I have learned so much! I’m wanting to find a Housekeeper and have a few questions; 1) will they clean with us being home? I’m basically home bound and get out very little due to medical problems. 2) is there anything in particular that I should ask or look for in addition to the things you describe in this video? I did take notes☺️ Thanks so much Stephanie!💜
Hey Sally🤗 thank you so much!
1) Yes, 99 percent of services will clean while you’re home.
2) I think I covered just about everything in the video. Those are the basics to getting starting. I would emphasize though to be sure you see a checklist and look around to make sure the cleaning is to YOUR standards before they leave. Oh and also, get a full understanding of what you are paying for exactly… like what does your service include for whatever rate they’re charging.
I think that’s it Sally. You should be good with that🤗
Let me know how it goes.
@@TheStephanieWay thanks so much!
Happy Sunday
Hey Benitia🤗
Hi Stephanie
I love to clean that candle what I do. I take clorox wipe, and they come out like new and the shower head. I take it down and used to oh picks to clean the little holes. Loves to have everything neat. Thanks for the video
Stephanie TFS I took in so many tips from you today. Very good teacher and professional! . I know that your client was very happy and pleased! A job well done sis. Much love too you❤
Hey She-She! Thank you so much sis🩷🩷🩷
As Always I enjoyed your training video. I have 1 request…
Would you please list the products you use in each video that would help because many times I am not able to write down everything you say and see what you are showing because I am hard of hearing. It would be greatly appreciated.
Ok… I can most certainly try and remember to do that🤗 and also I’ll start listing the products in the description box, so always check there for the list just in case you or I miss something in the video♥️
Hey Stephanie, I enjoyed the Vlog as always. You are a very good teacher on how to clean effectively. Great job sis❤
Hey Carolyn🤗 thank you so much sis🩷🩷🩷
Great cleaning what kind of mop do you use and a nsmr of some of your fofferent cleaners.love your all your video's
Thank you! I’m not really sure what else you were trying to say, but I couldn’t understand it.
I apology for texting.i was wondering what kind mop you were using and what are some of your floor cleaners you are using.love your videos
@clhorissjulick1227 No need for apologies🤗 I use a professional mop that I purchase at Costco
I would love to have a local cleaning service as professional and detail oriented as you. Alas, i only have myself! 😊 As i watched you clean this bathroom, i was waiting to see if you have any sure-fire ways to clean glass shower doors! I hate that job!
Hey Kathiee🤗 I’m going to link my bathroom cleaning video here.
But I will tell you that I use all purpose and Dawn.

As for cleaning the floor w/vinegar, do you dilute it? How do you keep down the smell?
I do dilute it with water. The smell is not a problem for me or my clients as it dissipates quickly.
The window/glass spray...it streaks my bathroom mirrors 😢...is it the towel or the mirror 🤔?
It could either. Glass can be a problem as well depending on the quality. Try using an old tee shirt (cut it) and see if that helps. But yes, using the wrong rag is problematic
Thank you for such a helpful video!! I was wondering if you could do one on like homes that have been somewhat neglected or cleaned quickly but maybe not as thorough. Like for example like how to teach homeowners in a business way and like toilets that i cant get the poo stains out the bottom if you have tips or products used on houses like that. Sorry if i drew out the questions having trouble with my words today. Thank you
Hey Sarah🤗 So, I don’t really clean that much anymore as I’m slowly moving away from the business to do other things. I pick and choose what I do now which is very limited. So you may not ever get to see that and I also don’t clean dirty homes. I’ve paid my dues where that’s concerned and so I’ve been stopped doing those and also, when I record in a clients home, it’s never planned. I just decided really at the last minute to pull out my phone and get clips simply because it’s not easy recording in clients homes and it takes FOREVER! So I don’t take requests for that because I just record only what I deem is necessary😊 BUT… if I ever come across that I’ll be sure and show it if I can.
Also, I have never seen those type of stains in the toilet that won’t come off and no need to apologize😊
Ohh ok im new to your channel but i totally understand now. Im really just trying to help get a family member house back to basics so all they have to do is maintain going forward. and its been a lot mentally and physically. I watched your video for product tips and efficiency type things so i could get done easier and quicker. Cant be quick enough for me 😂 Seems like the stain is all the way by the water hole in the toilet and the standard blue toilet cleaner with brush isnt gettn to it or something. Ill keep trying. Thanks for responding.
You are awesome!!!
You’re sweet, thank you so much🤗
Loved it!!
🤗
Thank you so much for this video. I needed this. What if the client wants to supply the items for me to clean their home it that good?
Hey Krystal🤗that’s really up to you. I, personally don’t like to use the client’s products. I usually just help them to understand that my products are clean and that they won’t have to worry about being overwhelmed with the smell and that I like to use my own products because it’s what I find to throughly clean and that they will get the house in the best shape possible. So in other words I don’t use their products because I just get them to trust mine😊
Do you clean your microfiber cloths by hand or washer?
I always wash them in the machine.
💕✨🌟✨💕
It’s good in that those are the products that they find give them the best results(former housekeeper for 19 yrs). Imao the housekeepers should charge $2 or so less if the client wants to furnish their own products. However, most clients don’t have pumice stones for cleaning under toilet rim, etc, or micro fiber or the yellow cloths to dust with.
I honestly don’t know what your comment is about.
@@TheStephanieWay I was responding to a question by a commenter & was giving my point of view as a 19 yr. housekeeper re is it a good idea if the client wants the housekeeper to bring her own cleaning supplies. My comment got placed at top for some reason. 🤷🏼♀️
That client had a lot of stuff on the bathroom counter. Do you ever suggest finding a home in a drawer or cabinet? Or at least a tray to corral the items on the countertop? It would be so much nicer for them and easier to keep clean, neat, and less cluttered.
I honestly think that would be kind of rude to ask my clients to contain their stuff.. It’s not really my business to worry about what’s on their counters, I’m just there to clean and to me it wasn’t a problem.
I agree with you. Most of my client’s had minimal products on the counters, but I had a customer who had a lot out & she asked me would it be better if I put them away in a shoe box & I said yes. She was very thoughtful. Clients don’t realize that when they get estimates they should do it right after the house is clean because they’ll get a better rate than when there’s things out of place all over the house. Ideally when a housekeeper gets a new client, they should look at the house first and after they’re hired it probably would be a good idea for the housekeeper to take pics of the condition it’s in because that’s probably how they’ll find the house each time-the more clutter the higher the price.
@@beckiruther1213 good idea!
@@TheStephanieWay you’re right. It’s just that clutter stresses me out, lol.
Gloves should be discarded after the toilet 🚽 cleaning. More clean gloves the better
I literally said in the video, that the cleaner can use their discretion. Not all toilets are filthy as you should have seen in the video where the bathroom had barely been used, if at all. So I know what I’m talking about thank you.
I watch another cleaning lady and she calls the traps easter eggs because you're always hunting for them.
I heard that no discounts! Quality work needs no discount. Great video. Im not a professional in the industry, but your tips and tricks have really transformed my home. Thank u!
Hey Keah🤗 thank you-you are so very welcome 🩷
Good evening Stephanie!
🫶🏻 I’m a former housekeeper for 19 years & I really enjoy your videos! Did you get any training before you started your business or any cleaning advice from anyone? I’m sure your clients must really appreciate you! I may need a housekeeper in the future. Are you in CA by any chance? Ty. 🫶🏻
Hello. No, I’m not in CA.
I know someone who was working for a new cleaning company & they ran out of rags to clean with & the owner told them to just use the dirty ones from a previous house that was cleaned! Needless to say that person quit after that because they couldn’t be a part of that. 🫠
That same EXACT thing happened to me once as well and that was my last day and I didn’t clean that house as I was speaking to the owner from the the clients driveway, so once they told me to do that, I just started my car and left.
I can top that , at 15 I was a bus gal in a restaurant, we reused water glasses as dish washer didn't keep up ! Several times .....also at like 26 , I had a Manger tell me to pick up the bread that fell on the floor and serve it .. watch were you eat ...I'm 47 today . Really I don't trust places today !
