Domestic Cleaning

What is Domestic Cleaning?

Domestic cleaning is an essential part of home care services, where caregivers provide assistance with everyday household chores to ensure a clean, safe, and pleasant living environment. These tasks may include dusting, vacuuming, mopping floors, washing dishes, doing laundry, and organizing personal belongings. By helping with these responsibilities, caregivers reduce the physical strain on individuals who may have limited mobility, health issues, or other challenges that prevent them from maintaining their homes independently.
