I am looking for a reliable, dependent housecleaning service to come in every other week. We live in Wheaton. My husband and I both work. With a very energetic 3 1/2 year old who I want to spend the my time with on the weekends, it's hard to keep up with the household cleaning. We are working through our second cleaning service in 4 years. They have been individuals versus companies. The cleaning quality starts out great and then after a few months seems to decline. I would just like consistency.

Hi there, I use Island Breeze Natural Cleaning and the lady is Maria Skokan - ###-###-####. I have been using them for over a year now and have referred them to all my friends. They use only natural cleaning product, bring all their own supplies and always do a great job. I have heard a lot of stories like yours from my friends which is why I chose Maria after a referral and I could not have been happier.

Hope this helps.

M.,

I hear you! I used a cleaning service to clean my condo before my baby was born, and then again when we moved out. These women did an AMAZING job! 3 of them spent about 3 hours cleaning cabinets, blinds, etc. and the place looked incredible.
Once we got settled into our house in the burbs, I too, wanted to spend my weekend with my son instead of cleaning. So we tried a couple different services with the same outcome you found - the first time or two, the place looked great, and then it went to pot. So on a whim, I called the woman who owned the company who cleaned our condo to see if they would come out to my area. Thank God I did! She now cleans my house every other week, has been doing so for not quite a year, and our house is spotless after every time she's there. She even vaccuums the furniture (and that was not on my list of things to do!). I'm not sure where you're located, but it's certainly worth a try to see if she works in your area. Bonnie (of Bonnie's Cleaning) can be reached at ###-###-####.
Good luck! I know this is a hard service to find and be happy with. You won't regret hiring these women - they are awesome!

Hi M.,

Try Colleen's Cleaning Machine. She is listed here on mamasource in the small business reviews and she has great references. She also has a two year old, so she knows all about cleaning up after toddlers! Read her reviews. You won't be disappointed.

I use Maids On Time every other week. I am very happy with the service I receive. I'm in the Western burbs, not sure all the areas they service. I've used them for over three years and have been very satisfied.

We went through many services and faced the same challenges as you. Our current cleaning service has been with us for over 7 years and I would recommend them time and time again.
Paul-ing Cleaning Service at ###-###-####. Our crew is Cristina, Beata and Ula or Onia. When necessary they have sent other team members and they have all done a great job. I am extremely picky and they have stuck by us through the years.
They are insured and service many areas with a gentle but pristine touch and will discuss your concerns and areas of focus directly. Good luck!
