Why I Created This Blog
When I first mentioned creating a cleaning blog with my friends and colleagues, their initial reaction was incredulity. “Don’t you have too much on your plate?”, “Does the world need another cleaning blog?” and “The niche is overcrowded already.” were just a few of the sentiments.
From a certain point of view, my friends were correct. Any mother of two teenagers would agree that you don’t really have a free moment to spare. When you add my professional duties – at least 30 hours of home cleaning per week – as well as running a household, my plate IS full.
And still, I decided to go ahead with the project. Why? The first reason is the simplest yet most important one – I’ve always wanted to. When I was in high school, I kept a daily diary, and I love skipping through its pages once in a while to see what I had thought as a teenager. I feel like I am reasonably good at writing and expressing my thoughts, so besides “I want”, there is the conviction that “I can”.
Second – I believe that I have something new and original to say. Yes, there are hundreds of cleaning blogs out there. But, and I say this with all due respect, most of them are created by housewives who only clean THEIR homes. I have been a professional domestic cleaner in Hampstead for over eleven years and have dozens of regular customers. I’ve passed through numerous high-level pieces of training and some of the most challenging professional courses in the UK. When I write about home cleaning, I can back it up with bullet-proof credentials.
OK, my thirteen-year-old daughter just burst into my room and asked what are we going to have for dinner. I guess that’s my cue to finish my first blog post. See you around, guys!
Kisses, Chris!
