I guess Il have to see what the house is like, what she wants done and how often. it might be weekly which would be fab, fortnightly or monthly. Ive had a look online and the only agency that gives a price is the one I currently work for. I have a friend who does it herself she has done for 7 years now, but shes not much help to me, just says depends on the size the house etc

I used to do either two hourly or three hourly stints. Set out from the start what you will or won't do. I refused point blank to do ouside windows or cookers.
Decide on your hourly rate, then work at a steady pace, do not work flat out. Some weeks may vary from others, washing down paintworks etc. I used to finish the work and then stand and Iron until my time was up. Had very happy customers and done it for about 8 years until I packed in through health issues.
People do tend to tidy up a bit beforehand so that the cleaner can actually clean.
