Areas we cover
Malaga · Málaga
Málaga grows outwards: the Centre concentrates refurbished flats and short-let homes, Teatinos and Puerto de la Torre are university and family districts, and El Palo and Pedregalejo still keep low houses by the sea. Many families who hire arrived a few years ago and work remotely, so the home is in use all day. Churriana and the upper areas add houses with gardens and more than one floor, where the day is organised floor by floor.

Indicative salary

The market moves largely by word of mouth among international families: part-time shifts of four to six hours are the norm, and English or German opens doors to households that pay above the average. Demand rises in summer, when many families ask for short-term cover.
What the service includes
General and deep cleaning, ironing, bed linen changes and day-to-day upkeep, hourly or full-time.
Before hiring, it is worth settling what gets cleaned daily and what is done deep once a week, whether ironing is included, and whether products come from the professional or the household. In Malaga most homes in Centro and Teatinos work from a written task list: it prevents arguments and lets you compare candidates on the same basis.
What we ask of the professional
Proven experience in private homes, references and availability to travel across the city.
Beyond experience, in Malaga we ask for availability to move between Centro and Teatinos and punctuality with the agreed schedule: homes are rarely all in the same district, and travel is part of the working day.
Legal framework
