Areas we cover
Jaen · Jaén
Jaén is a mid-sized provincial capital, with a historic centre on a slope and flatter newer districts such as Expansión Norte, the Bulevar and Las Fuentezuelas. The economy revolves around olive growing, and that shows in the hours: in some campaigns families are out all day and need help at home. It is also a city with a large older population, living alone or in couples and needing steady company.

What the service includes
Full domestic service: cleaning, laundry, ironing, simple cooking and general household organisation.
Full domestic service is best defined in blocks: cleaning, laundry and ironing, simple cooking, and keeping the house organised. In Jaen, where many homes in Centro and Expansión Norte are large, it pays to set one day for shopping and another for bed linen, and to write down what happens when there are guests.

Previous domestic-service experience, discretion, verifiable references and a language that fits the household.
In Jaen we value checkable references from at least one previous household and the ability to organise the week unsupervised; the job often covers Centro and Expansión Norte, so tasks are best clear before signing.
