Running a business means wearing lots of different hats, and I’ll admit that asking for reviews is one I’m not very good at! 🤍

Last week, I sent out our newsletter with a little plea… and we now have our very first Google review!

Reading these lovely words and knowing our work is making a difference means so much.

It’s all about the little wins ✨

If we’ve helped in your home, please feel free to Google The Home Atelier and share your experience. A few words from you would mean the world to our little business.

Sometimes, as mums, we try to do it all. And my goodness, we do a good job. 🤍

The school bags, the washing, the meals, the appointments… then there’s the playroom that’s taken over and the drawer you’ve been meaning to sort for months.

It’s okay to need a little help. You don’t have to reach the end of your to-do list before you’re allowed a break.

This week, we’ve been helping a family organise a few spaces around their home, from the playroom to the medicine drawer and bathroom cupboards. Swipe to see the before and afters.

These are busy family homes, and they’re meant to be lived in. Our aim is to make everyday life feel a little easier, with things you can find and spaces that work for you.

If there’s a corner of your home you keep thinking “I’ll get round to that”, we’d be happy to help. Just send us a message.

A little help can be the loveliest gift 🤍

Our Home Atelier gift cards are a thoughtful way to treat someone to a cleaner, calmer, more organised home — and a little time back for themselves.

For a birthday, Christmas or simply because they deserve it. ✨

Message us to arrange yours.

Don’t know where to start? That’s where we can help 🤍

That drawer you rummage through every day. The cupboard you keep meaning to sort. Sometimes even the little jobs can feel overwhelming when your list is already full.

We can help bring a little order back, one space at a time.

Send us a message and let’s take something off your list.

Turns out even our cleaners can’t agree on the best hoover 😂

Last week’s team chat turned into quite the debate…

Some firmly in the Shark camp. Others defending Henry’s honour — despite him getting stuck round corners, toppling over and looking at you like it’s somehow your fault. 👀

We spend plenty of time using them, so of course we’ve all got opinions!

Now we need yours: which hoover do you swear by?
And which one have you nearly launched out of the window? 😂👇

Imagine this… ☕️

It’s Saturday morning. You’re sitting down with a warm brew, looking around your home and, for once, there’s nothing you need to rush up and do.
No bathroom waiting to be cleaned. No floors that need doing.
 No list of jobs you’ve been putting off all week.
You can just… enjoy your morning.

Because for so many of us, the weekend has become the time we play catch-up.

When you’re working, running a business, parenting — or juggling all of the above — keeping on top of a home can feel like another job in itself.

Saturday arrives and suddenly you’re cleaning, changing beds, sorting washing and trying to get everything reset before Monday rolls around again.
And before you know it, the weekend is over.

That’s where we can help. 🤍

Our housekeeping service is about taking some of that everyday pressure off your shoulders and giving you back something much more valuable — your time.

Time for a slow coffee. Time with your family. Time to go out for the day. Or simply time to do absolutely nothing.

Because your weekends shouldn’t always be about catching up on your home.

Less catching up. More living.

Send us a message if you’d like to find out how we could help make your home — and your week — feel a little lighter.

“I’d love some help… but I’d be embarrassed to let anyone see it.”

If that thought has ever crossed your mind, we want you to know you’re welcome here 🤍

The cupboard you quickly close. The spare room that’s become a storage room. The piles you keep meaning to sort. The dust that’s built up while you’ve been busy with everything else.

Life gets busy, things build up, and sometimes you just don’t know where to start.

You don’t need to tidy before we arrive. You don’t need to apologise or explain every pile. We’re here to listen and help you find a way forward that works for you.
And your home doesn’t have to become a before-and-after post.

When we share transformations, it’s with our clients’ permission. If you’d rather keep yours private, that’s absolutely okay. Your privacy matters just as much as the finished space.

Save this for the day you feel ready to ask for a little help, or send us a message if there’s a space you’d love to tackle together 🤍

✨ Let’s talk about cleaning prices — honestly and openly. ✨

I’ve put this post together because there’s still a huge gap between what people think cleaning costs… and what it actually takes to run a professional, reliable, fully insured housekeeping business.

People will happily spend £60+ an hour on a massage, facial, haircut or nails — yet anything above £20 an hour for cleaning is sometimes labelled “too expensive.”
But cleaning is skilled, physical, demanding work. It’s a luxury service that gives you more time, more peace of mind, and a beautifully maintained home.

My rates start at £31.25 per hour because they have to. That figure doesn’t go straight into anyone’s pocket — it covers wages, pensions, NI, tax, travel, mileage, holidays, insurance, products, equipment, admin, rent, utilities and all the overheads that keep a business like mine running smoothly and legally. Even at this rate the margins are still tight.

And it’s genuinely sad to see so many self-employed cleaners still charging £15 an hour — the same rate I charged ten years ago. After costs, many end up earning below minimum wage, with zero sick pay or financial safety net. They deserve better. They deserve to charge their worth.

Fair pricing isn’t greedy — it’s sustainable. It keeps good cleaners in business. It means clients get consistency, quality and trust. And it means I can support my family while providing a service I’m proud of. ❤️

If you value your home, please value the people who care for it.
Thank you to every client who already does. ✨

I’ve been trialling products by over the last few months and I’m super impressed. It’s really important to me that my team and I aren’t using anything nasty in your homes — but it can be so hard to find eco-friendly products that actually work as well as the big-name toxic nasties filling the supermarket aisles.

And yes, there’s a whole cohort of “just make your own cleaning products” heroes — and I salute you. You’re amazing eco warriors. But vinegar, bicarb and lemons just aren’t for me. On busy days with lots of clients, it’s simply not practical to be mixing up homemade concoctions between jobs.

So I’ve been genuinely delighted to try the Delphis range. Current standouts are the bathroom cleaner, floor cleaner and multi-surface polish… but honestly, everything has been brilliant. They’re officially here to stay, and another big order will be going in soon! ✨
