When my son was about 7 or 8 years old, I mentioned wanting to hire a cleaning company.
He looked at me, completely serious, and said, “Mom, you can't hire someone to do that for you.”
And I thought… he's right. I should be able to do this. I'm a mom. I've got this.
So I kept doing it all. Running kids to activities, making dinner at 8pm, triaging the house, doing laundry, running the dishwasher, and squeezing in a scrub of the bathrooms somewhere in between. I was tired. Like, really tired. But I kept going because somewhere in the back of my mind, a second grader had convinced me this was the rule.
Fast forward a few years. My kids grew up (they still need reminders to put things away, some things never change 😅). I started Simply Sorty Organizing. And I learned something that changed everything for me:
Time is more valuable than money.
This past Spring, I finally hired a cleaning company. And I wish I had done it sooner.
Walking into my house and seeing clean floors, sparkling bathrooms, empty trash cans, I tell my clients this all the time and I mean it with my whole heart: it is life changing.
The other thing that pushed me to finally do it? My clients started asking me, “Who do you recommend for cleaning?” And I wanted to give them a real answer. Not just a name, but a recommendation I actually stand behind because I use them myself.
That's NestGlow Cleaning - St. Croix Valley, and I genuinely love them. Eco-friendly, non-toxic products, bi-weekly or monthly cleans and they even do deep cleans and move-in/move-out services. They serve western Wisconsin and they are the real deal.
So if you have been waiting for permission to hire help, consider this your sign. From me and from my 7-year-old son who clearly didn't know what he was talking about. 😂

And if you have been asking yourself “who do I even call for cleaning?” Now you know. You're welcome. 😊
