Keep It Clean

Moms get all the best jobs. Cleaning toilets, scrubbing the oven and taking out soiled diapers are just three of our faves. The entire must-do list likely wouldn’t fit on this page so let’s just say this: help around the house is worth its weight in gold (which we’d happily exchange for that help).

The thing is, helpful clean is not often green. Unfortunately, ‘chemi-cleaners’ happen to work very well without a lot of elbow grease, which is why many professional cleaning services use them.

Of course you know about some of the cheaper, safer solutions that require a handful of ingredients such as baking soda, vinegar, borax and castile soap (as well as naturally scented essential oils if desired).

Or, you could always hire Andrea Barber of Pure Cleaning Co. for a little extra help. Barber uses safe, non-scented, natural cleaning products to scrub and shine your home. She generously divulged her secret to safe cleaning with one simple item: microfibre cloths. Used with a trace of homemade cleaner they’re enough to clean your abode sans toxic residue. The trick is in the drying—immediately—with a clean and dry microfibre cloth.

We like that Pure Cleaning Co. offers a reliable in-home service. Barber is friendly, easy to talk to and above all else, professional. Her rate is reasonable and she is happy to work with you to determine your cleaning needs.

Barber offers bi-weekly, monthly and one-time only cleaning services. Gift certificates are available online and make for great baby gifts.

So, give green and get clean. It’s a deal we can live with.
