Areas we cover

Mijas · Málaga

Mijas is a sprawled municipality: Mijas Pueblo sits in the hills, Las Lagunas is the most urban and commercial area, and La Cala, Calahonda and Riviera stretch along the coast with gated urbanisations. Distances between centres are long and many houses fall outside bus routes, so a car changes the working day completely.

Getting around

Urban buses link the three centres; a car makes daily life much easier.

Indicative salary

€1,221–1,500. Gross per month in 14 payments for full-time; part-time is paid pro rata. Indicative amount, non-binding.

Full-time work in a single household is common, especially in Riviera and Calahonda, where families prefer continuity. Las Lagunas has more hourly work and more openings all year. A driving licence is requested in most coastal offers.

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 Mijas, where many homes in Mijas Pueblo and Las Lagunas 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 Mijas we value checkable references from at least one previous household and the ability to organise the week unsupervised; the job often covers Mijas Pueblo and Las Lagunas, so tasks are best clear before signing.
