Thank you so much guys for watching my video! Please don’t judge me about the music because I swear to God, the cleaning is not that hard as pick a music what everyone likes!! 😂😂😂 If you have any questions feel free to ask me! If you need help, because you live in New York, send me an email with pictures: cleanwbarbie@gmail.com Thank you and I love you guys!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh! Lord I’m a talker today, but my question was what kind of mask that is? I didn’t see it on the list-I am going to do some furniture restoration this year and I really need one like that!😊
Please stop apologizing. Viewers have the choice to watch or not. The music, voice overs and length of content is all enjoyable. What you do is wonderful and inspiring so you do you and be proud
What I actually enjoy about watching you clean is that you don't end up with a perfect spotless showhome afterwards. It's not about cleaning everything within an inch of it's life. It's about reclaiming the space and making it calm and habitable for the homeowner. If they lived in the before clean, then the after clean to them is immaculate and amazing and the best. They won't care about the odd smudge, a reorganised cupboard or the lack of a vacuumed sofa! This was a wonderful transformation Barbie be proud of yourself!
I love how you put that,not cleaning within an inch of its life! My mom and dad are European (mom, German dad, Hungarian) and my mom was a clean fanatic!! Everything had to be spotless and cleaned to the core! I hated weekends Saturday mostly. Cleaning day! I started having to help at 11 and at 16 all I wanted to do was go to the beach with my girlfriends. If I was done early it was oh good now we can wash windows and screens! Lol oh my god!!!
@@elizabethpost5981 - Aww I feel for you. Keeping a place clean and tidy is a good habit to have but obsessive cleaning does more damage than good in the long run. I'm sorry you had to miss out on making precious memories in order to satisfy your mum's rules. *hugs*
To be honest Barbie i've been a cleaner since I was 15 and have seen some very messy homes, but even with all those years of experience not even I could do what you do! So if anybody thinks this is easy I can tell you now it's not, it's very draining to your body and mind. Barbie your the best 💛❤💜
Please don’t say sorry or feel badly in any way, shape or form! You are providing such a service of love ❤️. You don’t owe anonymous people in RUclips any explanation. We love your positivity and motivation. You’re a beautiful soul 🌺
I'm happy to see you're wearing a mask. Not all youtube cleaners do this and it's important to protect yourself. You set an example for others. Great Job!
Barbie, you are so amazing and empathetic. To be able to reconstruct a home full of filth, decaying garbage, bugs, mice, animal poop and more all while showing empathy to the needing homeowner, and doing it all for free is simply a godsend. After days of your extremely hard smelly work, they can try to restart their lives in a now clean and organized home. Your videos are both inspiring and so satisfying to watch. God Bless You and your efforts to help others!
The woman needs family, friends, church, somebody to do an intervention. You gave her a beautiful new start..may she continue to get better. No human deserves to live like this. You are heaven sent!!💕💕
Barbie you have absolutely nothing to apologize for! You are doing such good work and I would never criticize your choice of music or how you clean or anything! You, Magic Midwest Cleaning, and Aurikatariina are proof that there are good unselfish people in this world. We see so much negative news that we tend to forget that there are truly a lot of wonderful folks in this world who choose to help others. Keep up the great work!
Barbie, I am literally sitting with my mouth open. First and foremost, what a beautiful apartment and now the woman who lives there will be able to enjoy it because of you! Once again you worked your magic and gave her back her home! I cannot begin to imagine how you accomplished all that you did, even in 3 days it is just blowing me away. Your skills when it comes to looking a space and deciding where to begin, when I would be standing there feeling paralyzed and overwhelmed. You really hit this one out of the park and I know in my heart that the woman's life will be forever changed because of you. You are an angel to so many whose lives you touch. They are truly blessed by you Barbie, by your heart, your commitment, your skill and your nonjudgemental attitude. You don't look down at your clients, you look at them, not through them. You're simply the best Barbie! Love you woman!
One good piece of advice I heard: when you look at a huge mess it gets overwhelming and seems impossible. So people stop. The advice was to pick a small area like a table top and to just do that. Then pick another area nearby and do that. Keep focusing on just a small area and then do the next small area. In that way, you can finish a whole room without being overwhelmed. Another good idea is to just pick up all, ALL, the trash, bottles, cans in all the rooms first. Take all those bags out of the rooms and then start in the next goal/layer. That would make organizing easier.😢 Doing step by step, not even every day or all day would make it possible for some to clean out their own place.
This is great advice. I get overwhelmed and have to stop and focus on one task one area etc. And give myself permission for that to be the only thing I do that day and be proud that I made a move in the right direction. Slowly it gets better and often inspires more
@@stephaniec0625 And once you get to a good place with the clearing out, the next thing is to keep it up. _Upkeep_ has to be scheduled too. Upkeep is a daily task, but by bit. I suppose there are garbage collection days in your area. Set your upkeep activities to meet those days. So the day before bottle/can pick up day (for example), I get all the empty bottles/cans ready to be put out the next day. The same goes for all trash. I never let it collect. So that even if I don’t vacuum every day, just keeping the trash in check and out into the garbage bags and then into the garbage collection area will goes along way to making me feel better about what I am doing. Also, dishes. I never go to bed without doing all the dishes, pots and pans, plates, cups, etc. I wipe and dry the counters. Un-needed food items are put back in place. You would be surprised at how easy it is for things to pile up if they are never put back into their place. Leaving just one thing out every day will make a pile of unneeded items on my counters within just a few days Since I air dry the dishes, the next morning while I am boiling water for my coffee, I put all the dishes away 100%. You would be surprised at the fact that all of the dishes and pots and pans can indeed be put away in just a few minutes while your water is boiling. So no standing around waiting for the water to boil. Put the dishes away! Then you have the whole kitchen all nice and clean ready for that days activities. Refrigerator: I check my refrigerator and the food in it every couple of days or at least once a week for anything that needs to be used up or has perhaps gotten a little bad. I always have in mind what I want to make out of leftover food. And I try to eat it up at lunchtime. If I forget and don’t use it and it starts to go a little bad, I get rid of it right away. Out it goes into the trash, the bowl or plate it was in gets washed! I wash my clothes twice a week and put them away immediately once dried. So please don’t give up, do your clearing out bit by bit and then make an upkeep schedule and keep to it. You can do it!
I have bi-polar depression and medication and talk therapy helps. This is sad. This is overwhelming for me and you take on the daunting task. You are amazing and inspiring. I am a work in progress and I'm doing better at clearing the clutter,letting go of unwanted or needed items and cleaning everyday😊
YOU are amazing and inspiring! I hope you give yourself pats on the back for doing better and recognize that it takes a lot of time and effort to keep going. We are all a "work in progress" whether we have diagnosed mental conditions or disorders, or not (I am part of "we"). You keep doing you, and doing what you need.
I know someone that is bi-polar. It's not easy for them. You always do a great job on these clean ups. Never feel that you have to apologize for anything.
At no point during this should you be sorry for not doing it better… you’ve done them a great service and I hope have inspired them to be better. You’ve certainly inspired me.
Barbie I came across your channel while watching a collab video you did with Mack from Midwest Magic Cleaning and A Beautiful Mess, please stop apologizing for things, you are truly an amazing and wonderful human being to do what you do help people who are struggling. You do such an amazing job under the most terrible conditions and turn it into a beautiful clean space. Thank you for what you do and you do it with such empathy and compassion too. The world needs more people like you and Mack who have such wonderful hearts to do what you guys do. The Universe Bless you with all your hearts desires and abundance. Sending you peace, love and big hugs.
I really like how you talk with them as you are cleaning. I’m sure it helps them being somewhat involved (yet not getting overwhelmed) and have a friendly, nonjudgmental person helping them through this very difficult process.
Hi Barbie, I just cleaned a totally messy appartment for my tenant - he's got depression and sasly tried to drink it away. Took 2 of us 16 hours just to make it livable. You have my deepest respect!
@@kimcourt5652 , he did ok for quite a while. We organized a home care team to see him 3 times a day, but sadly passed away suddenly, having a massive stroke, just before Christmas .
Barbie, I LOVE this long video! The longer the better, none of it gets boring to me. It’s fascinating. I’m so happy to see the mask you are wearing, I would even suggest some sort of tyvec suit with shoe covers. The most important thing is that you stay safe. Thank you for everything you do!
I love that you chose contemporary jazz as your choice of music and want to add that this type of work makes gyms obsolete because you’ve done hundreds of squats and stretches and you are so fit as a result. You are amazing Barbie and a testament to Hungarian women everywhere! I love your dedication and persistence. ❤
This may sound dramatic, but it's people you that save lives. I suffer from two mental illnesses and a pain condition, and it is so hard just get out of bed, let alone clean my apartment. The non-judgement support that you give to these people is truly amazing. Mental health is not something everyone understands. Thank you for being compassionate, supportive, and most importantly, you being you. You may not know to the fullest extent of what things like this means to someone who suffers from a mental illness. Hoarding is an illness, and it comes with a lot of shame, you showing it's okay and it's something that can be helped in more ways than just cleaning an apartment. Thank you
Girlfriend, you do not have a punisher next to you. You would jump out of your bed or wherever you are if you knew one whould hit you severely if you didnt clean the mess😂
This is wonderful, Barbie! I enjoy the hoarding clean up and the longer length video this time is a plus in my opinion. I understand about not being able to do the laundry due to circumstances and resources... Also- a comment about recycling: when there is mouse infestation, the droppings and urine carry virus potential and should not be recycled as it is a danger to the people who would process these contaminated items. You did perfectly right in putting it in the garbage! Same goes for the clothing: know the owner wanted you to save it all for her to sort through. She may not realize that, exposed to the mouse population, almost all is ready-to-trash. I know you didn't make that decision and are bound to respect what you are specifically asked if it is within your power to comply... You are doing great! I especially appreciated your explanation of what it takes for a person to really be of help to you on-site. Spot on and a good evaluation of the reality of actually doing the work, smelling the smells, dealing with rodents and bugs and generally adapting to unsanitary conditions not usually present in most daily lives. Excellent. Thank you so much. I admire you!
As I watched I thought about what could possibly be of help without being in the way and thought it could be a help to have someone just take trash out and be a runner for you, like moving the stuff to the balcony. Just a thought...
You teach me to be patient, Barbie. I think you have done more work than doctors to help this lady. And it's very good that she wants to organize her clothes herself.
To the lady whose home this is! Bravo!!! You are doing a wonderful thing for yourself and those who love you. If it’s a bad day, do one kitchen drawer or shelf! Every little job adds up more quickly than you think it will. I have this tendency to hold on to things, too! It gets bad quickly, but it can be undone as well. Hopefully, as the house is cleaned, you will feel healthier and have more energy. You know, we don’t know you personally, but we love you! Folks understand-and anyone who is hateful is the saddest of all because they either cannot give love or they are denying it to themselves by being mean.🌞🌎🌟
Amazing clean up job! I cannot believe you took on the herculean job of cleaning this multi-layered hoard by yourself, this is truly a job for a team of 8 people! I am so happy to see that you are protecting yourself with long gloves and a good mask against hantavirus and other diseases. I really enjoyed this longer video!
I just started watching and although i don't usually comment, I hope this person gets the help she needs (meds, therapy, etc.). As you said, this is a very grave mental health condition. Thank you Barbie, for helping her!
@@cleanwithbarbie she may need something called "In home supportive services" paid for by the US govt if she doesn't have any money or pay for regular cleaning trash taking out if she does have money. If she's depressed or some other issue and can't clean up after herself. A social worker can arrange this, she can apply through her city or county IHSS DPS.
@@cleanwithbarbie i am so sorry that she has to go through this, it's just hard to get the right therapy in bipolar disorder, i think. That's why i think she definitely needs help long-term, as a comment below suggested. Btw, much love from your neighbours in Croatia! :)
Maybe she could start small with just one thing, like: "I will throw any trash into the waste can every day before I go to bed." Maybe whoever lives with her could do one thing, like dishes. Maybe one other person could put all clothes on the floor into laundry baskets every nite before bed. Even a toddler could do that.
Wow, what an epic job. You are amazing. As someone who suffers from depression and mild hoarding tendencies, I can definitely relate. I don't have anyone to help me so I try to tackle a little each day. Whatever is clean I don't allow to get dirty again. Now I'm off to clean and organized my tiny bathroom vanity. Thank you for the motivation.
I have a depression but I'm busy throwing things away all the time. A lot of times I'm going why did I do that after the truck is run. We had a fire in '87 and I lost everything almost lost a child. Since then I throw everything away I don't know what is worse
I think people in this situation are self medicating with retail therapy. It’s great that she reached out to you for help. I hope she was able to verbalize some of her past history/problems. 💙
No hace falta que te disculpes. Tu estás haciendo tu trabajo, y bastante haces ya. Las personas que ven este video no tienen ningun derecho a criticar ni tu música ni tu forma de trabajar. Eres una brava mujer, muchas gracias por compartir, lo que haces es muy loable. Un abrazo desde España
I work with a hoarder and I think the one thing that slows me down (I have a.d.d. so I relate) is all of the trash. Maybe someone could volunteer to help for a few hours by stopping by mid day or in the evening to help take out the trash. I usually can get excited filling up bags and stuff by get tired when I leave I dread taking the trash out and it’s just a dumpster across a parking lot. Maybe having that help would let someone help but not be overwhelmed or be in your way. I love your videos and love hearing your explanations!
Wow that helps a lot. The woman I work with has physical issues so I just pile the bags in the hall… it’s my least favorite thing to do when I leave but oh well. Have a great weekend!
If there is a problem with her regularly getting the trash out, there may be a friend, neighbor, relative that is sympathetic to the problem who can regularly stop by the day before trash day and help? Up to the homeowner, but it’s probably a good idea-then someone is keeping an eye, and may literally be a life line
@@justkiddin84most of these people are on welfare. I live in ny. The places she cleans are disgraceful inside and out. The landlords dont care because they are getting rent paid by the state. It’s sad. And apparently everyone is depressed and has mental issues. Heck I’m depressed with anxiety it still get up, go to work, clean the best I can as in I don’t have garbage thrown next to my bed because I’m too lazy to throw it out. Am I a clothes hoarder? Omg yes. For the last 6 months I’ve had big brothers and sisters come pick up 10-15 contractor trash bags with clothes 3 times. Most are new. With tags! Plus I have drove to ny city and literally handed out clothes to the homeless people on the street that live cleaner than these people in these apartments. It’s the landlord’s fault. But again, they don’t care because the state pays them. It’s sad. Even sadder when you see a homeless veteran, or family with kids, walking around with their carts and.boxes. At night even where they sleep outside they keep clean. Ny city needs to step up their act. I hate saying I live in NY!! And what about the people that live outside the city in a nice house and are depressed, mental illness or dealing with life threatening cancer or something else and they homes look not as bad but bad. Nobody helps them!!!
I like the fact that the owner is helping, they themselves might learn something as they go along with the cleaning process it even might give them a little pride to say I help.
I just want to say you folks are angels on earth! I have a close family member with bipolar and depression and adhd. I’ve helped clean for them a few times after a particularly bad episode. It’s super hard and breaks my heart to know that’s how their brain felt and how awful they felt about themselves and their life at those times. The compassion and empathy I see in these videos warms my heart so so much!! Thank you ❤
What an incredible job you did here, Barbie. You're a hero to these homeowners. It's hard to believe you did all that by yourself in such short time. Well done ❤️
Barbie, thank you for helping her. You’re doing fabulous work. People need to stop being so judgmental about how others let there space get to that point. Mental health is a serious illness. You are an ABSOLUTE blessing!!
You always make a loving difference in the lives of those you help. This woman will have to restart her cooking habit after her break. The lovely kitchen will home her experienced tools and hands.
So kind of you to help people. I wish I had the strength to help people. I do have depression and obese with a bad spine. I do what I can at my parents house. Watching videos like yours gets me moving more and have the motivation to clean. So thank you
I feel like this was your best choice of music yet. It’s not the same 5 overplayed songs and it’s always nice for me when there are no lyrics because I end up struggling to focus on your words or the lyrics. You’re doing so so well! I can’t believe you’ve come so far in such a short time and I have no doubt your channel is going to continue to grow and grow exponentially! Thank you for healthy wholesome content!
I have those identical cabinets! I’m inspired! I’ve been binge watching while I clean at my own home! I’ve been mopping and scrubbing ! I cleared out stuff and got together a box of donations so far! When my front door is opened it looks decent! Not perfect! I’m not ashamed for someone to visit even though we aren’t done! I found the curtains for the living room! I found my old drill! I have an autistic ten year old so when something is out of place we search his room and the backyard! I also found the stuff that hadn’t been put where it belonged in the yard! I had bought a sprayer for my hose and it was still wrapped up! Slowly but surely the house is coming together! I’ve gotten so much done including scrubbing my microwave! It’s pristine and I wiped down the stove which I did a few days ago! It’s nice and shiny! I’ve been cleaning daily for four to seven hours a day! I just want my house to be clean with no weird smells or stuff everywhere! It’s getting there! I’ve even been able to set up a study area for my youngest!
To keep the oven cleaner spray working, take the little nozzle off and rinse it out after each use. You are a true Godsend for this lady! Hats off to both of you! And I just have to say, no force on earth could have stopped me from peeling off that blue protective film from the dishwasher door. ❤
Thank you so much for your work ... and sharing with us. It looks like functional people lived in this house at one time , nice furniture etc. What happens to people that things go so wrong? Not judging them, just feeling so sad for them that life has gotten so out of control. And feeling so grateful for people like you who can help. 🤗
No matter how committed we are to recycling, reusing and being "green" in our approach, when things reach this state the priority HAS to be removing clutter and cleaning up the unhealthy conditions as fast as possible. I really like the music! And this video was the length it needed to be. How I wish we had a program that could help people in these circumstances, some way to get them back on track and then continue to support them, treat health issues, and enable them to manage these issues on an ongoing basis. Meanwhile we have Barbie, a force of nature who is making the world a better place one home at a time.
At what point should an adult take responsibility for his own living quarters? I sometimes think some people use mental health as an excuse to not do things. Btdt. Got thru it. Keep a fairly clean house now.
@@cathiwim At point they are *literally* capable... the exact point you started getting thru. It's not nice to judge people who are _at the point we see them_ not there yet, because mental health preventing them is definitely a legitimate 'excuse'.
Barbie you are amazing. I am amazed at how you deal with the bugs, mice and feces. The people you help,hopefully they will be able to maintain their home. I know depression and other issues cause this. I hope they have family to help them. I’m from the south so I say “bless your heart “. You have a gold one for tackling this mess.
I dont comment a lot under videos I watch but I want to tell you that you are incredible and for this I want to thank you for being a part of the process of recover for this person in need. Reaching out to you is a Big step for this ill person and a part of her healing. So I really thank you from the bottom of my heart for healing and sharing!
I would go into cardiac arrest if I had to clean this house. How you have the energy to clean houses like this is crazy. I wish I was young and in great shape like you are Barbie. Kudos to you for helping this woman.
Dear Barbie, you speak English very very well ! I admire your courage. The transformation afterwards of the rooms is remarkable ! It is such extreme hard work ! You must be exhausted when you come home. And your back must be suffering ! Congratulations for all your courage !
Ok it’s official 😮 You are my hero Miss Barbie!🎉 You knocked this one right of the park! I am going to watch this over and over and over! I can only imagine how much lighter and happier the homeowner was when you were all done! I am so excited for her. I am sending her a ton of strength and patience to complete her homework going thru all of her clothing and other belongings on the patio Barbie you are a ROCKSTAR!! I can’t wait to see the whole apartment completed one day Big Love from me to you❤☺️✌️✨
Why do you want to watch this 3 times over? I don't mean to sound rude, but why would anyone want to watch this more than once? Even Barbie had enough and did a great job on the basics, but this place is still rodent Heaven.
Barbie this was such a big job I don't know how you handle something like this by yourself. This was so so much more than a normal cleaning. Who can live in these condition. Great Job you get a gold medal for this one.
I was trying to donate anonymously, oh well! 😂 I do want to say I think it’s better not to take the clothes to a laundry. It’s possible there are bedbugs or other vermin eggs that wouldn’t be killed in the washing machine (or end up around the outside of the washer). If someone were to use that washer after you and line dried instead of the dryer, it’s possible they could get the bugs. Thank you for everything you do to help people!
Please do not apologize so much. I enjoyed this video very much If one of your viewers wants to come help they could pick up the all the trash while you cleaned the first room. I bet they could handle it because most of us have a family member that is some sort of Horder. You are getting better and the objective is to get their homes livable, not perfect. ❤️
What you accomplished in the first three days is incredible! You are giving this lady her home back. But please, stop apologizing about your music choices! The music is fine. If people don't like the music in the background, they are not obligated to watch your videos. Keep doing your wonderful work!
My heart goes out to all the people who need your help. I struggle to keep my place up due to health conditions. It gets away from me and piles up, so when I have "good days" instead of doing something enjoyable I spend that energy to try to get things caught back up. Them I'm laid up in bed for a few days after due to exertion. It's an endless cycle but I do my best. I don't judge these folks, I completely understand and have compassion ❤
You deserve a special place in Heaven for helping this woman. What you did was heroic. I can tell by the boxes that this woman was not poor. I saw a Dyson vacuum and other brand name items. The fact that you did this for free was true charity especially for someone who most likely could pay to have a team come in. God bless you and your family.
One of the symptoms of bipolar disorder is impulsive shopping and overspending. So the person could very well be struggling financially because of their illness.
I just started watching. >>> Look at 3:28 in the video - it looks like a mouse drowned in that pot? Wow, thank you for your kindness and helping this lady. I think a cleaner house will help her to feel happier, peaceful, and more organized.
"I have to clean up before I clean up" That is so profound and so true ❤️ I think people who don't understand how this can happen to someone won't have any clue what that means. I totally get it ❤❤
What an amazing transformation! I'm so glad the homeowner reached out for help to live and cook in a clean place. Kudos to her! And I absolutely enjoyed the music choices. You are a wonderful human. Keep up the great work!
That was such a huge job. I can’t believe you did that all by yourself. Nobody deserves to live like that. I hope the lady is doing a lot better now that she has a nice and clean place to live 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Barbie, this was epic! You are amazing!!! And deserve a medal and a holiday to the Maldives after that! This is one of the best transformations I have seen on YT! Cannot wait to see you go back and transform the rest of the apartment, thank you for helping this lady!!! Xxx🤩🤩🤩
I was bought up with a Dad that served in the army. We had to clean the tops of the doors weekly , he would go round the house with a white glove on . After school , shoes had to be polished..Etc etc , it took me years not to straighten a pillow up on the lounge ..It took me years to not do the dishes one night ..To be done the next morning ..I do appreciate what i had to endure as a kid growing up ..But this is doing my head in ..But to see how some people live is amazing ..
You do an amazing job you are amazing you deserve a medal. I really don’t know how you clean those bathrooms. A big shout out for what you do for these people.👍👍👍💕💕
Hi Barbie, I prefer your music (instrumentals) to most others. I love your videos! I really appreciate your compassionate attitude towards your clients. I don’t understand how anyone could even glance at the conditions of the homes you clean and think that laziness was the reason. No healthy-minded human would ever choose to live in these conditions. There’s no way a person could live in these places and not lose all self-respect and have any self-esteem. You are so wonderful to help these folks and give them a second chance. Your cleaning videos are the best!
So nice to see you're taking care of yourself with proper equipment. God bless for all the work you do. For real, you should get your own TV show like "How clean is your house" or "Hoarders"! Also, I'd like a more uncut version but split in parts/rooms if possible 🙂
My goodness, that was a job and a half. Good job, my young sister. Thank you for helping this young woman. Depression is a terrible thing. It looks like she shopped to make herself feel better. I know all about that. Her place looked 100% better after you finished. Thank you for all you do for others. Few can do your job. I will be praying for you, that God will keep you safe, healthy, and happy, and that He will prosper you. 🙏🏾🥰🤗 Be blessed. 😊
Wow Barbie your so brave! The kitchen looks amazing! Your sound has evened out on this one and your voice over is loud enough and the music is great and just right on volume. So thankful for you and your work. ❤💙💚💛💜
Great job Barbie! What a big job it was picking up all the garbage and loading up all the clothes into bags! Then all the scrubbing, scraping! The stove and frig were so clean afterwards! Three days to do kitchen and livingroom, almost overwhelming! God bless you sweetie for your kindness!
Barbie; you are a force of nature! Once again you just bulldozed that garbage out of a home. It is incredible to watch! 🏆 I'm so happy for the person who lives there and I hope them all the wellbeing and happiness in the future ☺️
Thank you for being so understanding. My daughter has bipolar depression and anxiety disorders,along with other things. She's a college student and we spend alot of time encouraging her and of course supporting her and just being there. It's very difficult for her.
I feel so sorry for the couple living in those conditions. Mental illness cripples you and it hard to know where to start. You did a fantastic job for her, they must have been thrilled, Well done and keep up the good work.
Hope the lady is able to get to all those bags. You have given her a huge leg up. One bag a day or every few days would be so satisfying for her in the long run. The kitchen was huge! Well done!!
I know I’m late to watch this but personally I LOVE. music over cleaning with some talking. I often use these types of videos as motivation to clean and the music really helps.
I'm so thankful she had you to help her!!!! I suffer from depression and it's amazing how quickly my place gets clutter when I'm feeling really low. With help from medication; I am sometimes able to get up early and clean alot, but it doesn't happen often. You are an Earth Angel and you are more appreciated then you know!!
You are such a powerhouse Barbie! 💪 She is so lucky you came into her life. I don’t know anyone who could have accomplished so much in such a short amount of time 👏👏👏
I'm bipolar and am the opposite of this homeowner. I feel much calmer when everything is neat and clean. Messes make me agitated. We just moved to another home and the unpacked boxes and stuff from moving are driving me bonkers! We've downsized and it's very frustrating trying to find "a place for everything and everything in place." It's relaxing for me to watch you make these homes orderly and clean.
This person has a beautiful apartment and you were able to bring it back to its glory! Amazing job Barbie! I enjoyed that you found your cleaning tool, (steel scrubber), and used it everywhere, Lol! No more messing around! 😊 I have people close to me, that have Bipolar and the struggle is real! People need supportive people around them to help them cope and you were that person. Bless you ❤
My Grandfather's family came from Budapest Hungary. And he spoke like you. Papa Sondor was a beautiful person. And you are a very special person to help these people
Barbie, you did an amazing job with the amount of stuff you need to sort and move. I can't believe that you were able to do this in such a short time and all on your own 👍💖. As you asked for questions 😉, here are some things I would like to know: How do you go to the apartments of your clients (public transport/own car/über)? Do you bring your own cleaning supplies and trash bags with you all the time? As some places are really smelly and filthy and your clothes become dirty during the cleaning day do you bring clothes to change with you, so you can at least go home in some clean clothes? Please continue your amazing work and keep your positivity. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Sending love and positive energy from Berlin Germany 👍💖
Thank you! My husband used to drive me to this place. One for safety and two, because I have a driver license but I can’t drive 😅😅😅 I have my own cleaning supplies. And I don’t bring new clothes for me, but when I’m home I just use throw them in the washing machine ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much guys for watching my video! Please don’t judge me about the music because I swear to God, the cleaning is not that hard as pick a music what everyone likes!! 😂😂😂 If you have any questions feel free to ask me! If you need help, because you live in New York, send me an email with pictures: cleanwbarbie@gmail.com
Thank you and I love you guys!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great choice of music.
The music and video match is profound.
@@gregpendrey6711 thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Oh! Lord I’m a talker today, but my question was what kind of mask that is? I didn’t see it on the list-I am going to do some furniture restoration this year and I really need one like that!😊
I think your music has always been fine, but I think you have really brought it up to another great level recently, so ya. No problem here. 😊
Please stop apologizing. Viewers have the choice to watch or not. The music, voice overs and length of content is all enjoyable. What you do is wonderful and inspiring so you do you and be proud
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Yes - just do your thing, most will cheer you on and I can only imagine a small number won’t watch.
I agree.
No apologies.
You cannot please all of the people, all of the time.
You keep making the world a more beautiful place.
Agreed❤
She apologizes because you have no idea how critical people out there are..
What I actually enjoy about watching you clean is that you don't end up with a perfect spotless showhome afterwards. It's not about cleaning everything within an inch of it's life. It's about reclaiming the space and making it calm and habitable for the homeowner. If they lived in the before clean, then the after clean to them is immaculate and amazing and the best. They won't care about the odd smudge, a reorganised cupboard or the lack of a vacuumed sofa! This was a wonderful transformation Barbie be proud of yourself!
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how you put that,not cleaning within an inch of its life! My mom and dad are European (mom, German dad, Hungarian) and my mom was a clean fanatic!! Everything had to be spotless and cleaned to the core! I hated weekends Saturday mostly. Cleaning day! I started having to help at 11 and at 16 all I wanted to do was go to the beach with my girlfriends. If I was done early it was oh good now we can wash windows and screens! Lol oh my god!!!
@@elizabethpost5981 - Aww I feel for you. Keeping a place clean and tidy is a good habit to have but obsessive cleaning does more damage than good in the long run. I'm sorry you had to miss out on making precious memories in order to satisfy your mum's rules. *hugs*
Exactly.
@@elizabethpost5981 Cleanliness was next to godliness used to be the saying
To be honest Barbie i've been a cleaner since I was 15 and have seen some very messy homes, but even with all those years of experience not even I could do what you do! So if anybody thinks this is easy I can tell you now it's not, it's very draining to your body and mind. Barbie your the best 💛❤💜
Awww thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰
How do you stop from being totally grossed out? I mean no disrespect but that’s a real problem for me. ;(
You're* the best
Drains my mind as well...geez
Plus we've seen wayyyyy worse lol
Please don’t say sorry or feel badly in any way, shape or form! You are providing such a service of love ❤️. You don’t owe anonymous people in RUclips any explanation. We love your positivity and motivation. You’re a beautiful soul 🌺
I'm happy to see you're wearing a mask. Not all youtube cleaners do this and it's important to protect yourself. You set an example for others. Great Job!
Omg!! I’m so so thankful for this mask. It’s saved my lungs!
@@cleanwithbarbie yes! You need to stay healthy for your family❤️
Especially with that much mouse poop and urine- that will destroy your lungs.
Yes! I was thinking the same all along. Gloves and a mask: good for you! 🙏🏻
Barbie, you are so amazing and empathetic. To be able to reconstruct a home full of filth, decaying garbage, bugs, mice, animal poop and more all while showing empathy to the needing homeowner, and doing it all for free is simply a godsend. After days of your extremely hard smelly work, they can try to restart their lives in a now clean and organized home. Your videos are both inspiring and so satisfying to watch. God Bless You and your efforts to help others!
The woman needs family, friends, church, somebody to do an intervention. You gave her a beautiful new start..may she continue to get better. No human deserves to live like this. You are heaven sent!!💕💕
Barbie you have absolutely nothing to apologize for! You are doing such good work and I would never criticize your choice of music or how you clean or anything! You, Magic Midwest Cleaning, and Aurikatariina are proof that there are good unselfish people in this world. We see so much negative news that we tend to forget that there are truly a lot of wonderful folks in this world who choose to help others. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
@@cleanwithbarbie Please do a collaboration video with Midwest Magic Cleaning
Barbie, I am literally sitting with my mouth open. First and foremost, what a beautiful apartment and now the woman who lives there will be able to enjoy it because of you! Once again you worked your magic and gave her back her home! I cannot begin to imagine how you accomplished all that you did, even in 3 days it is just blowing me away. Your skills when it comes to looking a space and deciding where to begin, when I would be standing there feeling paralyzed and overwhelmed. You really hit this one out of the park and I know in my heart that the woman's life will be forever changed because of you. You are an angel to so many whose lives you touch. They are truly blessed by you Barbie, by your heart, your commitment, your skill and your nonjudgemental attitude. You don't look down at your clients, you look at them, not through them. You're simply the best Barbie! Love you woman!
Well said 💙
Yes!
Blessings 🙏
I couldn't have said it any better.
One good piece of advice I heard: when you look at a huge mess it gets overwhelming and seems impossible. So people stop. The advice was to pick a small area like a table top and to just do that. Then pick another area nearby and do that. Keep focusing on just a small area and then do the next small area. In that way, you can finish a whole room without being overwhelmed.
Another good idea is to just pick up all, ALL, the trash, bottles, cans in all the rooms first. Take all those bags out of the rooms and then start in the next goal/layer. That would make organizing easier.😢 Doing step by step, not even every day or all day would make it possible for some to clean out their own place.
This is great advice. I get overwhelmed and have to stop and focus on one task one area etc. And give myself permission for that to be the only thing I do that day and be proud that I made a move in the right direction. Slowly it gets better and often inspires more
Совершенно верно, как говорила моя бабушка, видя сложную работу :глаза боятся, а руки делают.
@@stephaniec0625 And once you get to a good place with the clearing out, the next thing is to keep it up. _Upkeep_ has to be scheduled too. Upkeep is a daily task, but by bit.
I suppose there are garbage collection days in your area. Set your upkeep activities to meet those days. So the day before bottle/can pick up day (for example), I get all the empty bottles/cans ready to be put out the next day. The same goes for all trash. I never let it collect. So that even if I don’t vacuum every day, just keeping the trash in check and out into the garbage bags and then into the garbage collection area will goes along way to making me feel better about what I am doing.
Also, dishes. I never go to bed without doing all the dishes, pots and pans, plates, cups, etc. I wipe and dry the counters. Un-needed food items are put back in place. You would be surprised at how easy it is for things to pile up if they are never put back into their place. Leaving just one thing out every day will make a pile of unneeded items on my counters within just a few days Since I air dry the dishes, the next morning while I am boiling water for my coffee, I put all the dishes away 100%. You would be surprised at the fact that all of the dishes and pots and pans can indeed be put away in just a few minutes while your water is boiling. So no standing around waiting for the water to boil. Put the dishes away! Then you have the whole kitchen all nice and clean ready for that days activities.
Refrigerator: I check my refrigerator and the food in it every couple of days or at least once a week for anything that needs to be used up or has perhaps gotten a little bad. I always have in mind what I want to make out of leftover food. And I try to eat it up at lunchtime. If I forget and don’t use it and it starts to go a little bad, I get rid of it right away. Out it goes into the trash, the bowl or plate it was in gets washed!
I wash my clothes twice a week and put them away immediately once dried.
So please don’t give up, do your clearing out bit by bit and then make an upkeep schedule and keep to it. You can do it!
@@Pammellam thank you so much for the advice and encouragement!
@@Светлана-о9б2лTy for sharing. Very wise grandmother advise. Ty
I have bi-polar depression and medication and talk therapy helps. This is sad. This is overwhelming for me and you take on the daunting task. You are amazing and inspiring. I am a work in progress and I'm doing better at clearing the clutter,letting go of unwanted or needed items and cleaning everyday😊
YOU are amazing and inspiring! I hope you give yourself pats on the back for doing better and recognize that it takes a lot of time and effort to keep going.
We are all a "work in progress" whether we have diagnosed mental conditions or disorders, or not (I am part of "we"). You keep doing you, and doing what you need.
I know someone that is bi-polar. It's not easy for them. You always do a great job on these clean ups. Never feel that you have to apologize for anything.
At no point during this should you be sorry for not doing it better… you’ve done them a great service and I hope have inspired them to be better. You’ve certainly inspired me.
Barbie I came across your channel while watching a collab video you did with Mack from Midwest Magic Cleaning and A Beautiful Mess, please stop apologizing for things, you are truly an amazing and wonderful human being to do what you do help people who are struggling. You do such an amazing job under the most terrible conditions and turn it into a beautiful clean space. Thank you for what you do and you do it with such empathy and compassion too. The world needs more people like you and Mack who have such wonderful hearts to do what you guys do. The Universe Bless you with all your hearts desires and abundance. Sending you peace, love and big hugs.
Thank you 💓
I really like how you talk with them as you are cleaning. I’m sure it helps them being somewhat involved (yet not getting overwhelmed) and have a friendly, nonjudgmental person helping them through this very difficult process.
🥰
Hi Barbie, I just cleaned a totally messy appartment for my tenant - he's got depression and sasly tried to drink it away. Took 2 of us 16 hours just to make it livable. You have my deepest respect!
Awww congratulations and big hugs! You did amazing job for sure
That's wonderful of you. You didn't judge him and gave him the help he needed. Not many landlords would do that.
That is so sweet I hope he is doing ok❤
@@kimcourt5652 , he did ok for quite a while. We organized a home care team to see him 3 times a day, but sadly passed away suddenly, having a massive stroke, just before Christmas .
Barbie, I LOVE this long video! The longer the better, none of it gets boring to me. It’s fascinating. I’m so happy to see the mask you are wearing, I would even suggest some sort of tyvec suit with shoe covers. The most important thing is that you stay safe. Thank you for everything you do!
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
A tyvek suit and some plain rubber boots, I can't imagine getting a roach or any other bug in my shoe, urgh!
Also after the mouse dies the fleas jump off onto the carpet or clothing or humans or pets that may be in that room and fleas also carry diseases.
I love that you chose contemporary jazz as your choice of music and want to add that this type of work makes gyms obsolete because you’ve done hundreds of squats and stretches and you are so fit as a result. You are amazing Barbie and a testament to Hungarian women everywhere! I love your dedication and persistence. ❤
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
This may sound dramatic, but it's people you that save lives. I suffer from two mental illnesses and a pain condition, and it is so hard just get out of bed, let alone clean my apartment. The non-judgement support that you give to these people is truly amazing. Mental health is not something everyone understands. Thank you for being compassionate, supportive, and most importantly, you being you. You may not know to the fullest extent of what things like this means to someone who suffers from a mental illness. Hoarding is an illness, and it comes with a lot of shame, you showing it's okay and it's something that can be helped in more ways than just cleaning an apartment. Thank you
Big hug Crassandra! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Girlfriend, you do not have a punisher next to you. You would jump out of your bed or wherever you are if you knew one whould hit you severely if you didnt clean the mess😂
I love your accent and love how you get rid of trash first. Keep up the great work.
Rule #1. Ignore the haters. They are not happy people. Pity them for their sadness. You are awesome 😊
This is wonderful, Barbie! I enjoy the hoarding clean up and the longer length video this time is a plus in my opinion. I understand about not being able to do the laundry due to circumstances and resources... Also- a comment about recycling: when there is mouse infestation, the droppings and urine carry virus potential and should not be recycled as it is a danger to the people who would process these contaminated items. You did perfectly right in putting it in the garbage! Same goes for the clothing: know the owner wanted you to save it all for her to sort through. She may not realize that, exposed to the mouse population, almost all is ready-to-trash. I know you didn't make that decision and are bound to respect what you are specifically asked if it is within your power to comply... You are doing great! I especially appreciated your explanation of what it takes for a person to really be of help to you on-site. Spot on and a good evaluation of the reality of actually doing the work, smelling the smells, dealing with rodents and bugs and generally adapting to unsanitary conditions not usually present in most daily lives. Excellent. Thank you so much. I admire you!
Thank you so much! ❤️ in normal and simple condition I would to select recycle but not in this case
@@cleanwithbarbie of course- this is an exception for health reasons K
As I watched I thought about what could possibly be of help without being in the way and thought it could be a help to have someone just take trash out and be a runner for you, like moving the stuff to the balcony. Just a thought...
@@cynthiahall6569o
You teach me to be patient, Barbie. I think you have done more work than doctors to help this lady. And it's very good that she wants to organize her clothes herself.
To the lady whose home this is! Bravo!!! You are doing a wonderful thing for yourself and those who love you. If it’s a bad day, do one kitchen drawer or shelf! Every little job adds up more quickly than you think it will. I have this tendency to hold on to things, too! It gets bad quickly, but it can be undone as well. Hopefully, as the house is cleaned, you will feel healthier and have more energy. You know, we don’t know you personally, but we love you! Folks understand-and anyone who is hateful is the saddest of all because they either cannot give love or they are denying it to themselves by being mean.🌞🌎🌟
So true. My doctor said try to do just one thing a day.
Amazing clean up job! I cannot believe you took on the herculean job of cleaning this multi-layered hoard by yourself, this is truly a job for a team of 8 people! I am so happy to see that you are protecting yourself with long gloves and a good mask against hantavirus and other diseases. I really enjoyed this longer video!
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
I just started watching and although i don't usually comment, I hope this person gets the help she needs (meds, therapy, etc.). As you said, this is a very grave mental health condition. Thank you Barbie, for helping her!
The problem is, she tried many therapy already…. :(
Are you going to keep seeing her, Barbie?
@@cleanwithbarbie she may need something called "In home supportive services" paid for by the US govt if she doesn't have any money or pay for regular cleaning trash taking out if she does have money. If she's depressed or some other issue and can't clean up after herself. A social worker can arrange this, she can apply through her city or county IHSS DPS.
@@cleanwithbarbie i am so sorry that she has to go through this, it's just hard to get the right therapy in bipolar disorder, i think. That's why i think she definitely needs help long-term, as a comment below suggested. Btw, much love from your neighbours in Croatia! :)
Maybe she could start small with just one thing, like: "I will throw any trash into the waste can every day before I go to bed." Maybe whoever lives with her could do one thing, like dishes. Maybe one other person could put all clothes on the floor into laundry baskets every nite before bed. Even a toddler could do that.
Wow, what an epic job. You are amazing. As someone who suffers from depression and mild hoarding tendencies, I can definitely relate. I don't have anyone to help me so I try to tackle a little each day. Whatever is clean I don't allow to get dirty again. Now I'm off to clean and organized my tiny bathroom vanity. Thank you for the motivation.
I have a depression but I'm busy throwing things away all the time. A lot of times I'm going why did I do that after the truck is run. We had a fire in '87 and I lost everything almost lost a child. Since then I throw everything away I don't know what is worse
I think people in this situation are self medicating with retail therapy. It’s great that she reached out to you for help. I hope she was able to verbalize some of her past history/problems. 💙
No hace falta que te disculpes. Tu estás haciendo tu trabajo, y bastante haces ya. Las personas que ven este video no tienen ningun derecho a criticar ni tu música ni tu forma de trabajar. Eres una brava mujer, muchas gracias por compartir, lo que haces es muy loable. Un abrazo desde España
I work with a hoarder and I think the one thing that slows me down (I have a.d.d. so I relate) is all of the trash. Maybe someone could volunteer to help for a few hours by stopping by mid day or in the evening to help take out the trash. I usually can get excited filling up bags and stuff by get tired when I leave I dread taking the trash out and it’s just a dumpster across a parking lot. Maybe having that help would let someone help but not be overwhelmed or be in your way. I love your videos and love hearing your explanations!
Thank you! I’m so lucky with the garbage, because usually the owners throw them away while I’m working on the room
Wow that helps a lot. The woman I work with has physical issues so I just pile the bags in the hall… it’s my least favorite thing to do when I leave but oh well. Have a great weekend!
If there is a problem with her regularly getting the trash out, there may be a friend, neighbor, relative that is sympathetic to the problem who can regularly stop by the day before trash day and help? Up to the homeowner, but it’s probably a good idea-then someone is keeping an eye, and may literally be a life line
@@Sherryk546 you too! ❤️
@@justkiddin84most of these people are on welfare. I live in ny. The places she cleans are disgraceful inside and out. The landlords dont care because they are getting rent paid by the state. It’s sad. And apparently everyone is depressed and has mental issues. Heck I’m depressed with anxiety it still get up, go to work, clean the best I can as in I don’t have garbage thrown next to my bed because I’m too lazy to throw it out. Am I a clothes hoarder? Omg yes. For the last 6 months I’ve had big brothers and sisters come pick up 10-15 contractor trash bags with clothes 3 times. Most are new. With tags! Plus I have drove to ny city and literally handed out clothes to the homeless people on the street that live cleaner than these people in these apartments. It’s the landlord’s fault. But again, they don’t care because the state pays them. It’s sad. Even sadder when you see a homeless veteran, or family with kids, walking around with their carts and.boxes. At night even where they sleep outside they keep clean. Ny city needs to step up their act. I hate saying I live in NY!! And what about the people that live outside the city in a nice house and are depressed, mental illness or dealing with life threatening cancer or something else and they homes look not as bad but bad. Nobody helps them!!!
I like the fact that the owner is helping, they themselves might learn something as they go along with the cleaning process it even might give them a little pride to say I help.
I have a cleaning business and I know it's hard work. Thank you for sharing and caring! don't worry so much about all the comments.
I just want to say you folks are angels on earth! I have a close family member with bipolar and depression and adhd. I’ve helped clean for them a few times after a particularly bad episode. It’s super hard and breaks my heart to know that’s how their brain felt and how awful they felt about themselves and their life at those times. The compassion and empathy I see in these videos warms my heart so so much!! Thank you ❤
What an incredible job you did here, Barbie. You're a hero to these homeowners. It's hard to believe you did all that by yourself in such short time. Well done ❤️
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Barbie, thank you for helping her. You’re doing fabulous work. People need to stop being so judgmental about how others let there space get to that point. Mental health is a serious illness. You are an ABSOLUTE blessing!!
You always make a loving difference in the lives of those you help. This woman will have to restart her cooking habit after her break. The lovely kitchen will home her experienced tools and hands.
So kind of you to help people. I wish I had the strength to help people. I do have depression and obese with a bad spine. I do what I can at my parents house. Watching videos like yours gets me moving more and have the motivation to clean. So thank you
I feel like this was your best choice of music yet. It’s not the same 5 overplayed songs and it’s always nice for me when there are no lyrics because I end up struggling to focus on your words or the lyrics. You’re doing so so well! I can’t believe you’ve come so far in such a short time and I have no doubt your channel is going to continue to grow and grow exponentially! Thank you for healthy wholesome content!
I agree, I cant concentrate with lyrics and i love your videos!!
I have those identical cabinets!
I’m inspired! I’ve been binge watching while I clean at my own home! I’ve been mopping and scrubbing ! I cleared out stuff and got together a box of donations so far! When my front door is opened it looks decent! Not perfect! I’m not ashamed for someone to visit even though we aren’t done!
I found the curtains for the living room! I found my old drill! I have an autistic ten year old so when something is out of place we search his room and the backyard! I also found the stuff that hadn’t been put where it belonged in the yard! I had bought a sprayer for my hose and it was still wrapped up!
Slowly but surely the house is coming together! I’ve gotten so much done including scrubbing my microwave! It’s pristine and I wiped down the stove which I did a few days ago! It’s nice and shiny!
I’ve been cleaning daily for four to seven hours a day! I just want my house to be clean with no weird smells or stuff everywhere! It’s getting there!
I’ve even been able to set up a study area for my youngest!
To keep the oven cleaner spray working, take the little nozzle off and rinse it out after each use. You are a true Godsend for this lady! Hats off to both of you! And I just have to say, no force on earth could have stopped me from peeling off that blue protective film from the dishwasher door. ❤
Thank you! My mind was everywhere and I just didn’t focused to peeling down:)
Me too - I would have ripped it off lol
Thank you so much for your work ... and sharing with us. It looks like functional people lived in this house at one time , nice furniture etc. What happens to people that things go so wrong? Not judging them, just feeling so sad for them that life has gotten so out of control. And feeling so grateful for people like you who can help. 🤗
No matter how committed we are to recycling, reusing and being "green" in our approach, when things reach this state the priority HAS to be removing clutter and cleaning up the unhealthy conditions as fast as possible. I really like the music! And this video was the length it needed to be. How I wish we had a program that could help people in these circumstances, some way to get them back on track and then continue to support them, treat health issues, and enable them to manage these issues on an ongoing basis. Meanwhile we have Barbie, a force of nature who is making the world a better place one home at a time.
recycling facilities and donation centers will not accept items contaminated by mouse feces. It's a health hazard for employees to sort thru that.
At what point should an adult take responsibility for his own living quarters? I sometimes think some people use mental health as an excuse to not do things. Btdt. Got thru it. Keep a fairly clean house now.
@@cathiwim At point they are *literally* capable... the exact point you started getting thru.
It's not nice to judge people who are _at the point we see them_ not there yet, because mental health preventing them is definitely a legitimate 'excuse'.
Barbie you are amazing. I am amazed at how you deal with the bugs, mice and feces. The people you help,hopefully they will be able to maintain their home. I know depression and other issues cause this. I hope they have family to help them. I’m from the south so I say “bless your heart “. You have a gold one for tackling this mess.
I dont comment a lot under videos I watch but I want to tell you that you are incredible and for this I want to thank you for being a part of the process of recover for this person in need. Reaching out to you is a Big step for this ill person and a part of her healing. So I really thank you from the bottom of my heart for healing and sharing!
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Think it s sweet you wash up their dishes too. Adds to a fresh start in the kitchen for them. 👍
I would go into cardiac arrest if I had to clean this house. How you have the energy to clean houses like this is crazy. I wish I was young and in great shape like you are Barbie. Kudos to you for helping this woman.
Dear Barbie, you speak English very very well ! I admire your courage. The transformation afterwards of the rooms is remarkable ! It is such extreme hard work ! You must be exhausted when you come home. And your back must be suffering ! Congratulations for all your courage !
Ok it’s official 😮
You are my hero Miss Barbie!🎉
You knocked this one right of the park! I am going to watch this over and over and over!
I can only imagine how much lighter and happier the homeowner was when you were all done! I am so excited for her. I am sending her a ton of strength and patience to complete her homework going thru all of her clothing and other belongings on the patio
Barbie you are a ROCKSTAR!!
I can’t wait to see the whole apartment completed one day
Big Love from me to you❤☺️✌️✨
Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why do you want to watch this 3 times over? I don't mean to sound rude, but why would anyone want to watch this more than once? Even Barbie had enough and did a great job on the basics, but this place is still rodent Heaven.
Barbie this was such a big job
I don't know how you handle something like this by yourself.
This was so so much more than a normal cleaning.
Who can live in these condition. Great Job you get a gold medal for this one.
I was trying to donate anonymously, oh well! 😂 I do want to say I think it’s better not to take the clothes to a laundry. It’s possible there are bedbugs or other vermin eggs that wouldn’t be killed in the washing machine (or end up around the outside of the washer). If someone were to use that washer after you and line dried instead of the dryer, it’s possible they could get the bugs. Thank you for everything you do to help people!
Thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️
Please do not apologize so much. I enjoyed this video very much If one of your viewers wants to come help they could pick up the all the trash while you cleaned the first room. I bet they could handle it because most of us have a family member that is some sort of Horder. You are getting better and the objective is to get their homes livable, not perfect. ❤️
What you accomplished in the first three days is incredible! You are giving this lady her home back. But please, stop apologizing about your music choices! The music is fine. If people don't like the music in the background, they are not obligated to watch your videos. Keep doing your wonderful work!
I hope she gets help with the laundry; the thought of how much there is is overwhelming.
Blessings to her and to you for doing this difficult job.
I hope too! 🥰🥰🥰
My heart goes out to all the people who need your help. I struggle to keep my place up due to health conditions. It gets away from me and piles up, so when I have "good days" instead of doing something enjoyable I spend that energy to try to get things caught back up. Them I'm laid up in bed for a few days after due to exertion. It's an endless cycle but I do my best. I don't judge these folks, I completely understand and have compassion ❤
You deserve a special place in Heaven for helping this woman. What you did was heroic. I can tell by the boxes that this woman was not poor. I saw a Dyson vacuum and other brand name items. The fact that you did this for free was true charity especially for someone who most likely could pay to have a team come in. God bless you and your family.
One of the symptoms of bipolar disorder is impulsive shopping and overspending. So the person could very well be struggling financially because of their illness.
@Jasmine in my mind your right but not everyone of having BD since it is somewhat different into situation on how affect the illness.
@@Jasmine-in-my-mind that is true, I hope he/she finds the help they need psychologically
I just started watching. >>> Look at 3:28 in the video - it looks like a mouse drowned in that pot? Wow, thank you for your kindness and helping this lady. I think a cleaner house will help her to feel happier, peaceful, and more organized.
The difference you make to these peoples lives is unfathomable, truly, so thank you for all that you do!
"I have to clean up before I clean up" That is so profound and so true ❤️ I think people who don't understand how this can happen to someone won't have any clue what that means. I totally get it ❤❤
What an amazing transformation! I'm so glad the homeowner reached out for help to live and cook in a clean place. Kudos to her! And I absolutely enjoyed the music choices. You are a wonderful human. Keep up the great work!
Wow! That is a TON of work for three days. Outstanding! ❤❤
That was such a huge job. I can’t believe you did that all by yourself. Nobody deserves to live like that. I hope the lady is doing a lot better now that she has a nice and clean place to live 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Barbie, this was epic! You are amazing!!! And deserve a medal and a holiday to the Maldives after that! This is one of the best transformations I have seen on YT! Cannot wait to see you go back and transform the rest of the apartment, thank you for helping this lady!!! Xxx🤩🤩🤩
I was bought up with a Dad that served in the army. We had to clean the tops of the doors weekly , he would go round the house with a white glove on . After school , shoes had to be polished..Etc etc , it took me years not to straighten a pillow up on the lounge ..It took me years to not do the dishes one night ..To be done the next morning ..I do appreciate what i had to endure as a kid growing up ..But this is doing my head in ..But to see how some people live is amazing ..
You have done an amazing job on a horrible situation. Continue the good work. You are truly a blessing in the lives of many.
She has a beautiful living room and kitchen now! You are amazing- such hard work, such a satisfying result!
You do an amazing job you are amazing you deserve a medal. I really don’t know how you clean those bathrooms. A big shout out for what you do for these people.👍👍👍💕💕
Thank you so much!
Hi Barbie, I prefer your music (instrumentals) to most others. I love your videos! I really appreciate your compassionate attitude towards your clients. I don’t understand how anyone could even glance at the conditions of the homes you clean and think that laziness was the reason. No healthy-minded human would ever choose to live in these conditions. There’s no way a person could live in these places and not lose all self-respect and have any self-esteem. You are so wonderful to help these folks and give them a second chance. Your cleaning videos are the best!
So nice to see you're taking care of yourself with proper equipment. God bless for all the work you do.
For real, you should get your own TV show like "How clean is your house" or "Hoarders"!
Also, I'd like a more uncut version but split in parts/rooms if possible 🙂
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
My goodness, that was a job and a half. Good job, my young sister. Thank you for helping this young woman. Depression is a terrible thing. It looks like she shopped to make herself feel better. I know all about that. Her place looked 100% better after you finished. Thank you for all you do for others. Few can do your job. I will be praying for you, that God will keep you safe, healthy, and happy, and that He will prosper you. 🙏🏾🥰🤗 Be blessed. 😊
Wow Barbie your so brave! The kitchen looks amazing! Your sound has evened out on this one and your voice over is loud enough and the music is great and just right on volume. So thankful for you and your work. ❤💙💚💛💜
❤️❤️❤️
You and other cleaners warm my heart. Mental health has reached high proportions in this society. You gave this person a rebirth.😊
You do amazing work. So thorough. I am inspired to clean my own messes.
Thank you so much!
Great job Barbie! What a big job it was picking up all the garbage and loading up all the clothes into bags! Then all the scrubbing, scraping! The stove and frig were so clean afterwards! Three days to do kitchen and livingroom, almost overwhelming! God bless you sweetie for your kindness!
You performed a miracle and have helped the home owner reset their mindset for a better life.
Barbie; you are a force of nature!
Once again you just bulldozed that garbage out of a home. It is incredible to watch! 🏆
I'm so happy for the person who lives there and I hope them all the wellbeing and happiness in the future ☺️
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for being so understanding. My daughter has bipolar depression and anxiety disorders,along with other things. She's a college student and we spend alot of time encouraging her and of course supporting her and just being there. It's very difficult for her.
I feel so sorry for the couple living in those conditions. Mental illness cripples you and it hard to know where to start. You did a fantastic job for her, they must have been thrilled, Well done and keep up the good work.
Hope the lady is able to get to all those bags. You have given her a huge leg up.
One bag a day or every few days would be so satisfying for her in the long run.
The kitchen was huge! Well done!!
I know I’m late to watch this but personally I LOVE. music over cleaning with some talking. I often use these types of videos as motivation to clean and the music really helps.
I'm so glad!❤️
Greetings from London. Well done Barbie, what a marathon cleaning session. This will make the world of difference to this person's life.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
This was a massive job and you handled it greatly!
I'm so thankful she had you to help her!!!! I suffer from depression and it's amazing how quickly my place gets clutter when I'm feeling really low. With help from medication; I am sometimes able to get up early and clean alot, but it doesn't happen often. You are an Earth Angel and you are more appreciated then you know!!
Che lavoro intenso!!! Chissà che mal di schiena avrai avuto.
A volte desidero essere lì con te per poterti aiutare!!! Sei super bravissima❤
You are such a powerhouse Barbie! 💪 She is so lucky you came into her life. I don’t know anyone who could have accomplished so much in such a short amount of time 👏👏👏
I'm bipolar and am the opposite of this homeowner. I feel much calmer when everything is neat and clean. Messes make me agitated.
We just moved to another home and the unpacked boxes and stuff from moving are driving me bonkers! We've downsized and it's very frustrating trying to find "a place for everything and everything in place."
It's relaxing for me to watch you make these homes orderly and clean.
This person has a beautiful apartment and you were able to bring it back to its glory! Amazing job Barbie! I enjoyed that you found your cleaning tool, (steel scrubber), and used it everywhere, Lol! No more messing around! 😊
I have people close to me, that have Bipolar and the struggle is real! People need supportive people around them to help them cope and you were that person. Bless you ❤
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰🥰
I know I rewatched this several times and again today May30, I enjoy it each time!
Thank you 😊
You made this home beautiful again!
Dear you are a miracle worker
Thank you 😊
I absolutely love your choices in music. Very soothing. For me, this video length and style is PERFECT! Thanks, Barbie.
Unbelievable! I can hardly believe you did all this in two days. You are such a hard worker, and you inspire me to get off my butt. THANK YOU ❤❤❤
You are amazing - so sweet and tireless! I get worn out just watching you 😀
WOW! No, YOU ARE AMAZING BARBI!!!
Thank you ❤️
Barbie you are a wonderful human being! Thank you for helping this woman.
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
My Grandfather's family came from Budapest Hungary. And he spoke like you. Papa Sondor was a beautiful person.
And you are a very special person to help these people
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Barbie, the before and after pictures are amazing! You did so much work for a total stranger for free, that is incredibly kind and generous!
You did an amazing job! I hope the homeowner took the time to launder and sort all those bags of clothes.
Barbie, you did an amazing job with the amount of stuff you need to sort and move. I can't believe that you were able to do this in such a short time and all on your own 👍💖.
As you asked for questions 😉, here are some things I would like to know: How do you go to the apartments of your clients (public transport/own car/über)? Do you bring your own cleaning supplies and trash bags with you all the time? As some places are really smelly and filthy and your clothes become dirty during the cleaning day do you bring clothes to change with you, so you can at least go home in some clean clothes?
Please continue your amazing work and keep your positivity. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Sending love and positive energy from Berlin Germany 👍💖
Thank you! My husband used to drive me to this place. One for safety and two, because I have a driver license but I can’t drive 😅😅😅 I have my own cleaning supplies. And I don’t bring new clothes for me, but when I’m home I just use throw them in the washing machine ❤️❤️❤️
No need to apologize for what you cannot do--you are doing so much more than anyone else has done.
