I did have a cleaning person a few months ago that decided to stop coming after the 2nd time. I know it had to do with money. Originally she quoted me $15/hr or $60. Since I had no idea how long it would take her to clean my bathroom, kitchen, living and dining room I told her I'd pay her the $60. When it took her less than 3 hrs I was a little annoyed but didn't say anything. However I did call her and explain that I'd rather pay by the hour. The next time she cam it took her 2 1/2 hrs and that was because she swept over every floor after mopping them. I gave her $45 (3 hrs pay) and asked her if it was ok and she said yes. That was it never saw or heard from her again.

I am looking for someone obviously reliable, that can travel to western Queens and that will be $60 or less. It's really 2 - 2 1/2 hours of work so I'd prefer to pay in the vicinity of $45. I will be adding a bedroom and a very small nursery to the cleaning in mid September. Just trying the get them organized 1st.
