How does everyone keep their house so clean?

I feel like my house is always a mess and I can never keep up with all the house work. How does everyone do it? Does any one have a strict whole house monthly routine, where you do certain jobs or rooms on each day? I have an indoor dog and a toddler that runs around with a tornado of toys where ever he goes.

I have a cleaner once a fortnight then just keep on top of it

Yep. My house is always a mess. I am astounded when I go to other people's houses and they are immaculate. I think maybe you have to be certain type of person to have a house like that, and I am not it!

@Sharon roughly how much do you pay if you don’t mind me asking

@Jenny hahah I think I’m the same but sometimes having a messy house just irritates me

We pay $80 for 2 hours

Yes it definitely irritates me too, I just don't know how to remedy it other than spend all my waking hours cleaning, which I'm not going to do! I just get so sick of stressing about it.

@Jenny I feel the exact same way!! But when you clean all day you feel like your not giving your kids enough attention.

@Sharon what do they do in 2 hours I feel like that’s not a lot of time

It's plenty for what we need. She cleans the kitchen, dusts, vacumns, mops and cleans bathrooms. We have a 4 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms. We don't need a huge clean it's just to help us keep on top of everything. I work 4 days a week, hubby works week on week off and is away his on week.

Vacuuming and mopping would be a great help. If I can’t find a routine I’ll probably hire a cleaner

@Miss M that’s a good idea!

@Tamara I’ll have a look at those books today! I’m currently pregnant with Bub number 2 so trying to get a clean house and a routine going before it gets to hectic
