The Daily Maid has always supported local charities, with Claire House and St Johns Hospice being closest to our hearts. This year we are supporting the innaugral Claire House Summer Festival, which will be held on the 24th – 26th June, at Wirral Rugby Club.

The Claire House Summer Festival 2011 ethos is to stage a community based event that not only raises valuable funds for Claire House Children’s Hospice but also to help local community groups in raising
awareness and funds for their own cause.

We invite local craft artisans and food producers to come along and join in the fun. The Festival is shaping up to be host to a wonderful local Farmers Market and Craft Fair showcasing unique and high quality range of food stuffs, crafts and gifts.

It will be a family orientated event with fairground rides, a climbing wall and pony rides. Also face painting, clairvoyant, pet’s corner, artists, live music and dance. The Main Arena will host various displays during the two days plus a Tug Of War.

There’ll be lots to keep the whole family entertained with fairground rides, a climbing wall, pony rides, face painting, clairvoyant, a mini-farm, artists, live music and dance. The Main Arena will play host to various displays throughout the weekend including a Tug Of War competition.

Under 7s, under 8s, under 9s, under 10, under 11s, under 12s and adults are invited to compete for Claire House Cup in our football tournament, with separate competitions on both Saturday and Sunday.

What’s more, Friday and Saturday nights will feature local bands and comedy acts on the main stage as well as headline acts together with full bar facilities.

Chill out with us on Sunday and relax to the sounds of the Big Bands, enjoy a Hog Roast and
cheer on the festival’s Balloon Race finale.

Jan Birss and her daughter Sarah Birss are fortunate to be able to accept this challenge on behalf of Claire House and the children they support on a daily basis.

All the team here at The Daily Maid wish them god-speed and hope that they enjoy, what really is, an opportunity of a lifetime. The Daily Maid team are planning a number of fundraising events for 2011 and will keep you posted as we come up with more crazy ideas.

About Claire House:
Located in Bebington on the Wirral, Claire House is a bright, vibrant place of hope. In addition to caring for our children and young adults, we also focus on the needs of the whole family, providing bereavement and other support for as long as it is needed. With no guaranteed government funding we need to raise in excess of £2.5 million each year to maintain our present levels of service.

Our specialist nursing team also work in the community through our ‘Hospice to Home’ programme which offers paediatric palliative care in the family home. With a hospice to home service also operating from our Liverpool office we are now reaching more families than in previous years and hope to see this grow in other areas too.

Wirral Cleaner the Daily Maid asks “How clean is Your House?

Whether you are old or young, male or female, own your home or currently renting, we all love it when Kim and Aggie get stuck in and turn a stinking mess of a home into a shiny new penny. Channel 4 is the home of the popular reality cleaning show – How Clean is Your House? and here at Wirral Cleaner we understand that everyone has times when they worry about someone coming into their home when it is not looking its best.

At The Daily Maid we have “seen it all”, and nothing surprises us anymore when we go to meet a new customer. Sometimes people tell us how nervous they are when we organise our first visit to your home with Jan and her team. We take this concern seriously and as a family business we look to make the process of inviting someone into your home for the first time as relaxing and as informal as possible.

Jan and her team all enjoy meeting new people and understanding our customer’s lifestyle and cleaning needs. Each customer has a story to tell and needs a service suited to their individual needs. We are specialist domestic cleaners and have many years experience of showing our customers homes in the best light.

Kim and Aggie have tons of cleaning tips at their finger tips, and at The Daily Maid we are no different. We have cleaned, scrubbed and polished many different types of spills and stains, and many of our customers love to find out the tricks of the cleaning trade from us. At The Daily Maid our advice is free and each new customer provides us with a new cleaning challenge, something I’m sure Kim and Aggie are more than used to.

Looking To Be A Wirral Cleaner?

As cleaners on the Wirral we’re always looking to expand our operation to make our cleaning experience the best it can possibly be for clients.

Cleaning the Wirral is no easy feat though, so we look for a special breed of person to represent The Daily Maid. We want our cleaners to feel the passion that we feel for the art of cleaning, and the desire to give clients the most immaculate services possible.

Previous experience is of course an advantage, but were we to find the right kind of person to represent The Daily Maid who really enjoys working hard then we will always give them a leg up and teach them the standards we expect for our clients.

As a domestic cleaner on the Wirral representing us you will receive fully-comprehensive training. But we’re also looking for quirks and abilities that simply can’t be taught. We’re looking for cleaners who have the ability to smile and look on the bright side when a job is tough, and people with excellent manners who know how to communicate effectively.

We’re a committed team here at The Daily Maid and understand that your family comes first. Our philosophy is the same – our family is incredibly important to us and so we can afford some flexibility. However, in return we need someone who is fearless to a challenge and is able to make our clients feel like the most important people on the planet.

If you sound like the kind of person we’re looking for and would like to register an interest with The Daily Maid, contact us today!

A Wirral Cleaner With The Personal Touch

As a friendly Wirral cleaner, The Daily Maid often comes across many requests that people wouldn’t necessarily make to a larger organisation. That’s the advantage of being family-owned cleaners on the Wirral. We’re friendly and personable, with over fifteen years’ experience of cleaning out nooks and crannies across the peninsula.

Alongside these qualities is a real ambition to make The Daily Maid the best cleaning agency across the Wirral peninsula. We believe in hard work and aren’t afraid of it – you don’t exist for fifteen years without going the extra mile and incorporating a splash of elbow grease into every project you undertake.

We do it with a smile, too. On a personal level, this is our dream. Everyone who represents The Daily Maid has their own special, unique quality that lingers in our clients’ minds longer than the smell of Pledge polish and Dettol!

Our clients are dearly important to us and we thoroughly enjoy working alongside them as we make their homes as pristine and as immaculate as possible. We know from experience just how cluttered and messy a family home can be – we have a large brood ourselves. So we use all of our personal and professional experience to spot areas that other cleaning firms may not consider tackling when cleaning a residence.

Trust, personality and incredible attention to detail are just a few of our key selling points as a Wirral cleaner. We hope you’ll get in touch to give our services a try.

A Domestic Cleaner In Wirral For The Long Term

Most of our clients have been aboard the good ship Daily Maid for a number of years. We’ve made a lot of friends during our time as a domestic cleaner on the Wirral who are always pleased with the service we provide and the lengths we go to to make sure they are happy with the results.

A lot of our reputation has come from good old word of mouth – friends telling other friends about how far we go as a Wirral cleaner. That’s because we imbue hard work and industry into every project we take on, whether it’s a simple clean, a thorough spring clean throughout your home or cleaning up after the builders when they’ve trawled dust and mud throughout your home.

But over the past five years we’ve been incredibly busy. It seems that all of our clients have a hell of a lot of friends! So we’re gradually expanding and showing off what we can do as a domestic cleaner on the Wirral. But we don’t want to clean your house once and never hear from you again, oh no. We’re a friendly and personable bunch and want you to value the service we provide. We want to be there to take the cleaning weight off your shoulders and do so again and again for years to come.

The Daily Maid is living the cleaning dream and wants to be there time and again for years to come to provide a long-term cleaning solution that leaves you satisfied, and makes your house feel like a proper home.

Cleaning Wirral Carpets!

We have two dogs. We have a big family. We have a carpet. What else do we have when we combine all three? Problems!

As you probably know it’s a stomach-churning moment whenever something is spilled onto a carpet. Whether it’s a glass of wine or your children have traipsed mud all over the house you’ll more than likely be on your hands and knees trying in vain to make it better. It’s actually more likely that you’re making the problem worse, digging the dirt deeper and smudging it into the fibres.

We’ve learned through good old experience here at The Daily Maid. As a domestic cleaner on the Wirral we are able to offer a carpet cleaning service that is deep-reaching through state-of-the-art carpet cleaning tools.
You may never have cleaned your carpet before and don’t have the slightest clue on how to approach it. As cleaners on the Wirral we can take the pain away from you and leave you with a carpet that you’ll be immensely proud to show off to your friends and family.
