Depends on experience, location and how much flexibility there is with timing. Also, are you planning on having children, pets or adults in the way?

Yes, but OP hasn't made it clear whether the housekeeper is an employee or a contractor. Cleaning services are rarely structured as employment

What is it that you don't understand about domestic emoyees cannot be contractors? They are hourlyve ployees so cheap people can't cheat them. OP, I pay $25/hr for a maid.

Domestic employees cannot be contractors. But contractors can perform domestic work. Surely you've heard about the large "home cleaning" industry? Don't be daft.

Ahhh, the home cleaning industry- in which a cleaning team uses the same mop, broom and vacuum inside one home and into the next - great way to spread bed bugs
