About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Ever thought about what a difference it makes to step into a sparkling, warmly cared-for home each day? We’re looking for someone friendly and detail-oriented to help keep our small apartment tidy and welcoming. As a House Cleaner with our family here in Ajman (Sheikh Ammar Street), you’ll help create a comfortable, clean home for three adults—no child care or complicated routines, just genuine, straightforward housekeeping in a place that feels more like a cozy retreat than a job site.
About Us
We’re a close-knit family of three—husband, wife, and mother—living in a compact one-bedroom apartment. While our home may be small, we take pride in keeping it bright, organized, and a true haven after a busy day. Our rhythms are simple, and so is our lifestyle: we value privacy, kindness, and clear communication. You’ll find us respectful, appreciative, and considerate about your time and comfort. We like to keep things relaxed, yet tidy—nothing fancy, just a clean place to call home.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Daily cleaning of the living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom (think: dusting, wiping surfaces, tidying up).
- Sweeping and mopping floors in all rooms to keep things feeling fresh.
- Washing dishes and keeping the kitchen neat after meals.
- Emptying trash bins and helping with organization, as needed.
- Light laundry support—just folding and putting away, not extensive washing.
- Occasionally assisting with small household errands (think: quick grocery tidy-ups or simple organizing).
- You are not required to cook or watch children—just cleaning and home upkeep.
What You’ll Bring
- A careful, detail-oriented approach to cleaning and organization.
- Good communication skills (Arabic, English, or Hindi are helpful!).
- Reliability and respect for other people’s spaces and routines.
- Friendly, polite attitude—you don’t need years of experience, just a real willingness to help.
- Previous housekeeping experience is a plus, but not required.
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
- Safe and welcoming family environment with clear boundaries and expectations.
- Simple responsibilities with no cooking or babysitting.
- Flexible timing—we’re happy to discuss hours and routines that work best for everyone.
- The satisfaction of helping maintain a comfortable, appreciated space.
- Respectful, straightforward communication (we believe in treating people well).
- Convenient location in Ajman, easy to reach and in a friendly neighborhood.
We believe that when our home feels good, everyone feels good—and we genuinely appreciate the person who helps us make that happen. If you’re looking for a straightforward, no-drama housekeeping job where your efforts are noticed and valued, we’d love to connect.
