When will my Home Help Team arrive?

Your Goldilocks team will arrive within one hour either side of your scheduled time (e.g. between 9am - 11am for a 10am booking). If your Home Help Team is ahead of schedule/behind schedule on the day, Goldilocks will contact you by phone with an updated arrival time.

Do I need to be home when the Goldilocks Team arrives?

For cleaning services, it's entirely up to you - you can stay home, greet the team and leave, stay for the duration, or provide secure access so the team can lock up when finished.

For Home Organisation and Home Support Services, we recommend being home initially to discuss your needs, after which you may choose to stay or leave.

Can I leave a key for the Goldilocks Home Help and Support Team?

Yes. Many clients install a keysafe and share the code with us before the booking. Please note we do not store client keys off-site or bring them to bookings. All access must be via keysafe or entry provided at the time of the booking.

What do I need to do before my Goldilocks Cleaning Team arrives?

We recommend clearing clutter from bench tops, tabletops, and floors where possible. If that's not practical, your team will discuss your priorities and focus areas when they arrive to ensure we deliver the best possible service.

Do you clean skirting boards, trinkets, or internal windows?

Yes, your team can include these areas if mentioned when booking your clean. Skirting boards and internal window cleaning can also be included when additional time has been booked specifically for these extra tasks. Please let us know your preferences at the time of booking so we can plan accordingly.

What tasks require extra time or specific request at booking?

Housekeeping tasks such as changing bed linen, folding clothes, washing dishes, emptying kitchen or bathroom bins (and replacing liners), cleaning skirting boards and cleaning internal windows can be completed if extra time is booked or if these tasks are specifically requested when making your booking. This ensures your cleaner can focus on what matters most to you within the allocated time.

Will you clean display areas, fragile ornaments, or electronics?

To protect your belongings and our cleaners, we don't clean fragile trinkets, ornaments, or electronic areas such as TVs, computers, or entertainment units. We'll always do our best to clean around these areas safely.

Can I ask my cleaner to use a ladder or step stool?

No, sorry. For safety reasons, our cleaners can only clean areas reachable by hand. Please don't provide or request that they use ladders or step stools.

What do I do if I notice any damage?

To help us take the very best care of your home, we kindly ask that you pop away any delicate, fragile, antique, heirloom or especially valuable items before our team arrives. While we always handle your home with care, accidents can occasionally happen. Goldilocks Home Help and Support will not be liable for pre-existing damage, discolouration, or wear and tear, or for any damage to items that are left out during your service. We may document these during your clean to ensure transparency.

If you do notice any damage after your clean, please Contact Us within 24 hours and send through a photo so we can look into it straight away.

What tasks are not included in your service?

For health and safety reasons, we do not clean:

Mould
Pet waste
Nappy bins
Bio-hazards
Fragile display areas
Electronics
Any areas that require a ladder or step stool to access

We also do not operate washing machines or dryers.

What happens if something I expected to be cleaned wasn't done?

If a task was not completed, it may not have been included in your booking instructions or is outside our service scope. Please check our policies for full details. If you're ever unsure or would like to discuss something about our services, please Contact Us and we'll be happy to help.

I have a pet, what do I need to do before my Goldilocks Home Help and Support Team arrives?

We love animals! However, for safety and efficiency, please let us know in advance if you have pets so our team can prepare appropriately. We ask that you keep any pets safely secured either in your backyard or in a room while your Home Help and Support Team conducts your service. We also ask that any pet toys, food bowls and kitty litter be picked up off the floor or packed away so that our team can provide you with the best clean possible.

We cannot clean pet waste or litter boxes.

Are any harsh chemicals used when cleaning my home?

Goldilocks uses eco-friendly cleaning products with no harsh chemicals. We use high quality micro-fibre equipment that deliver spotless results without compromising your family's health or the environment.

Will I have the same Home Helper each time?

In most cases, yes. We schedule regular services to ensure the same team attends whenever possible. However, illnesses, emergencies or holidays may occasionally mean another trusted Goldilocks team member attends your booking. Your usual helper will resume once available.

Do I need to confirm my regular service each week/fortnight?

No confirmation is needed. Your Goldilocks Home Helper will arrive within one hour of your scheduled time each week or fortnight. If you need to make changes, please contact us with at least three (3) working days' notice.

Do I need to provide any cleaning equipment?

No, we provide all products and equipment for every clean to ensure you receive the highest quality house clean, surpassing expectations every time. We use professional-grade, eco-friendly supplies to ensure your home is safe and spotless every time.

Yes. Every team member undergoes a full police check and careful screening before joining Goldilocks. We only hire staff who meet our high standards of professionalism, reliability and care.

Access and Safety Policy

If our team cannot access your property (e.g. locked out, incorrect keysafe code, unsafe conditions), the full service fee will apply. We reserve the right to refuse service in situations that pose safety risks, including unsafe environments, aggressive pets, or bio-hazards.

Your privacy is important to us. Personal information is used solely for managing your bookings and delivering services. We never share or sell your details to third parties.
