I know what it’s like to feel as though you’re in the ground and need a digger just to see the light again.

As a survivor of PTSD, I know that when life gets heavy, the house is often the first thing to fall. I’ve lived through that cycle of overwhelm where the mess feels like a mountain you can’t climb alone.

When I was at my lowest, I didn't need someone to just "clean for me." I needed someone approachable. I needed a person who was willing to go the extra mile—not as a critic, but as a friend. When I finally found that helping hand, I realized I wasn't alone. This struggle is so common, yet we carry it in such deep silence.

Need A Cleaner was born from that experience.

I am here to be the friend you need. We can have a laugh and a cuppa while we’re getting stuff done. When I leave, I want you to feel lighter, happier, and ready for the next day.

My approach is simple and person-centred:

• You are allowed to rest: If your energy is low, I will bring you a cuppa and flit around making things a little tidier while you recharge, just because you need to be present to organise your home, doesn’t mean you have to do the heavy lifting. That is okay.

• You are allowed to help: If you want to work alongside me, that’s great! I’ll show you some cool tips and tricks as we go, so you feel empowered to manage your space your way.

• No judgment, ever: I have stood where you are standing. There is nothing you can show me that will change my respect for you.

A Skilled Ear & A Helping Hand

Because I believe in the power of listening, I have completed a COSCA counselling skills course. This training helps me truly hear your needs and respect your boundaries without assumptions. I also volunteer my time helping people in the community, because I know that sometimes a little bit of support is the only thing standing between us and our peace of mind.

I’m not just here to scrub floors. I’m here to hold your hand while we get you out of that space.

Let’s find the floor again, together.
