What customers say:
“Monday morning. I see Mirella arriving on her bike. The entire house is already dancing in delight.
Because Mirella cleans until everything shines.
Every week she tackles a project in our place at KW9. All of a sudden, the carpets are clean as a whistle. Or our high ceilings have been divested of cobwebs with a huge feather duster. There is a different clean surprise every time. It’s wonderful!”
I’m so glad I ran into Mirella!
While preparing my house for selling, I faced a huge clearing out and cleaning job. I was looking for someone to help me.
Mirella proved the perfect person: She is efficient, active, fast, has an eye for detail, offers creative solutions to difficult issues, knows how to listen and has a sense of humor (very important if you get down), and perseveres until the job is done. On top of that, she is a lovely, kind person.
I highly recommend her!
FAQS
Who will come cleaning at my place?
That’s me, Mirella. I visit my clients personally to organize everything.
Where does Help ’n Handje go and where not?
For the time being, Help ’n Handje is available exclusively in the city center of Amsterdam. The reason is that I do everything on my own and I travel by bicycle. I’d lose too much time driving around otherwise. Time I’d rather invest in giving you a clean, well organized and fresh home. Student flats and ‘hoarder’ homes are also ineligible for Help ’n Handje’s services.
What if I have personal wishes outside the standard activities?
That’s great! Because these are the ‘personal services’ I offer in addition to the regular cleaning and organizing tasks. Do you have a dog that needs to go for a walk? Would you like me to do your grocery shopping for you? Or perhaps you want me to get you fresh flowers? Do the kitchen cabinets need a good clean? Or would you like me to take your parcels to the post office, wait for the technician to repair your washing machine, or take your clothes to the dry cleaner’s? You name it. In principle, everything is possible!
How often does Help ’n Handje come?
As often as you like. Once a week, several times a week, once a month, or just once. After all, you can order as many Help ‘n Handje vouchers as you like. You pay in advance and book the appointment in my online agenda.
Can I give someone a Help ’n Handje voucher?
Absolutely! It’s such fun to offer someone a Help ’n Handje voucher as a gift. The recipient will receive a Help ’n Handje voucher in the mail, after which they can plan their own appointment in my online agenda. Naturally the recipient must live in the city center of Amsterdam.
What if my attic is stuffed, or my wardrobe bulges, or my administration is spread throughout the house?
Yes, Help ’n Handje can also help you with that. I’d be happy to act as your coach in the bigger cleaning projects. We’ll do this together, since you will have to tell me what can go and what you want to keep. And because it is difficult to know how long we need to clear out an attic, for instance, this is billed on an hourly basis. Some people find it harder to let things go than others, after all.
What will Help ’n Handje do exactly?
Help ’n Handje makes sure your home is all fresh and dandy. In 2.5 hours, I’ll clean up the living room and the kitchen, clean the bathroom and toilet, make the beds and water your plants. This is based on the average family home with a maximum floor surface of 100m2. If there are other things you would like me to do, please let me know. We’ll discuss the options and I will make sure it gets done. In principle, everything is possible!
What if I have a complaint or am unhappy?
Oh, I’d be really sorry if that happened. I make every effort to make sure my clients are satisfied, so if it should happen that you are unhappy with any of my work, please send an e-mail to mirella@helpnhandje.nl. We’ll search for a fitting solution together.
