[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would like to hire a house-organizer. Where would I find such a person/service?

What I actually would like is to hire a part-time cleaner and babysitter. However, my house is disorganized and full of clutter - something I can get under control with a weekend-long herculean effort, which I put in every so often, but that's unsustainable, and which leaves me drained and spent. I have two small children and am always one lazy/sick/trip away/having-people-over weekend away from chaos, which it takes me another week to recover from (in terms of cleaning up, washing sheets from visitors, unpacking from trip). My husband works a flexible but time-consuming job (think academia), and between us we just don't have enough time or energy resources for all the things we need to do and also watch the kids for each other.

And in terms of organizing and de-cluttering: I just don't know where to begin. I seldom have 4 hours in a row of total concentration, much less during the DAY when I'm not really tired, much less a WHOLE DAY. And when I undertake a big project, I often don't have time to finish it in a day and then it's even worse than when I started.

So, to summarize: what kind of service can I hire that can help me get my stuff/organization under control, maybe for a reasonable price? I am located in southern Baltimore.

Are you planning to pay $45/hr? Do you really expect a babysitter to be a cleaner AND and organizer? Come on now. 
Thank you! [/quote][/quote]
