ツamsterdam, the market group
One message, one name. From people who already had someone in.
500+ locals · 709 requests since September · a name given 760 times
Finding a housekeeper in Amsterdam used to go by word of mouth. ツamsterdam is that word of mouth for the whole city: you send one message and get one name.
Housekeeper and cleaner are the same people at ツamsterdam, so the numbers are the same. Since 1 September 100 requests came in and someone was named 142 times, 12 different people. Jay most often: 40 times, of which 27 got a yes.
Asking costs nothing. Nothing to download, no account. Who gets named is not for sale.

If you want regular help: Jay comes on fixed days and keeps the house in shape. With a move coming up he also helps with packing and lifting.

Patricia · Westerpark
Twelve years with the same family says more than a review. Patricia comes every week, irons too and works without you having to point anything out. You can ask her for references.

Next to cleaning, Leila does the laundry, the ironing and the tidying. She speaks five languages, so the odds that you understand each other are good.

This order is not for sale. Sorry.
A housekeeper is someone who stays. That is why every name comes with how often the person asking said yes. Jay heard yes 27 times out of 40. Patricia 14 times out of 25, Leila 13 out of 22 and Jessica 11 out of 25. Nobody bought that order. It exists because people say yes.
Requests for regular help look alike: every week or every other week, the same day, someone you can talk to. If you only want someone in on weekdays, or would rather have a woman, put it in the message.
People from IJburg named their neighbourhood 27 times, more than Zuid, Oost and Noord put together. De Pijp, Schinkelbuurt and NDSM were each named 4 times.
Say which day you want someone and whether that is every week. Say if you will be home or leave a key. And say which language you speak, so nobody has to mime where the vacuum cleaner lives.
A message that works: Hi ツamsterdam, I'm looking for a housekeeper in Oost, three hours every Friday morning, I work from home then. You get one name and the two of you arrange the first visit.
You message. ツamsterdam names one person. You say yes. Or no. How the market group works.
Asking costs nothing.
ツamsterdam does not know what a housekeeper ends up being paid. It does know what people mentioned up front: €20 most often, 11 times, and €15 8 times. You agree it together and pay her directly.
Yes. Say so. ツamsterdam names a woman.
Yes. Say which days. You get someone who is free then.
Yes. Regular or once. You say how often.
You don't pick from strangers. ツamsterdam names one person. If it doesn't work, say so and another follows.
People asking often say three hours. Say how big your place is and the housekeeper will know.
Neighbourhood group. Family group. Now the market group.
