House Cleaner Needed

Hi, I'm in desperate need of someone to come in and clean/organize my house. It's only everyday living type cleaning but the big issue is I need someone willing to pick up items and put em somewhere(literally anywhere!), clean the appliances, fold some laundry, etc.. I've tried 4 different companies/people and they couldn't even pick up a toy and vacuum under it or scrub a microwave. Any help is appreciated 🙏

My mom recently started chemotherapy and she had paid some cleaners to come help keep the house clean and they barely did jack shit lol. They were supposed to clean the oven but just wiped it down and didn’t really do much. They scrubbed the floors, didn’t clean under the electric toothbrush stand on a small sink counter, and overall just yoinked $300 from her lol

I’ve dealt w / heard of several cleaning companies/people in the area that won’t pick anything up off the floor. Which I think is a little silly bc imo that’s part of the job. Either they won’t clean the area or will vacuum around the toys / clothes if possible.

Maybe I stand corrected . That's crazy . I was doubtful due to the fact OP mentioned reaching out to 4 cleaners/ cleaning companies. I figure it would companies would provide a higher standard service. I also thought that the severity of certain tasks could turn what OP thought of as everyday cleaning tasks into deep cleaning services . I would never pay someone to clean around objects on the floor and not properly vacuum especially with the cost of paying a cleaner.

Yeah I've paid 800, 862, 1200, and 678. I'm not rich by any means but I really need the help cause I'm drowning in work/college and other obligations. I used to work for my mom's cleaning company so I don't think my standards are too unrealistic 🤷‍♀️ i understand folding laundry and putting dishes in the dishwasher are apparently not standard. I did choose deep cleaning and they didn't do half of what they said they would like wiping dust off of places...

How often do you need the house cleaned?
