Fast & Easy Fridge Organizer!

tumblr_inline_nvvdz0dySZ1twsvu6_1280.png.cf
We often throw away food that we really wanted before but because it gets lost in the abyss of our #fridge it expires before we find it again.

This trick is super easy and cool!

1. get yourself transparent plastic shoe containers from stores like Walmart.
2. Stick a piece of white scotch tape and label 3 containers: Priority,
About to Expire,
(Person’s Name) Snacks
3. You guessed it, place items accordingly.

You can have extras for EGGS, CHEESE, ETC.

This should help you stay organized, reduce food waste and enjoy more of that yummy food you have already paid for.

Are You Ruining Your Hardwood Floors?!

tumblr_inline_ns66a22OQO1r4pvg6_540

Many Arizona homes don’t have hardwood floors but the ones that do often enjoy the added warmth and character it gives to the house. Hardwood flooring can give your house a modern or rustic look depending on your decor style – As long as you take care of the floor properly. Caring and cleaning flooring in general largely overlooked in a house!

HERE ARE SOME TIPS TO HELP YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR HARDWOOD FLOORS

1. Don’t let spills wait.

Letting milk, juices or other liquids to sit on the hardwood floor will often stain permanently the area ruining your beautiful hard wood flooring or costing you much more to fix. Dry up with a cotton towel tapping on the floor instead of wiping smearing around.

2. Not Having an Entry Mat.

I know, I know… If you have a modern style you probably don’t want an ugly mat at your entrance but having a mat to scrub your shoe soles clean, tap on it to loosen small rocks and or to leave your shoes behind can drastically improve the lifespan and shine of your floors.

3.High heels.

Entry mats remind me! If you often wear high heels you are scratching the grains of the wood, this almost microscopic wood scratches will build up giving your wood a worned-out look also making spills harder to completely clean out and avoid stains.

4. Not Sweeping often!

This can be hassle, but lucky for you there are amazing professionals like Honest Maids that will do this for you at each visit. When you sweep, you are removing lose particles like rocks, gravel, dirt, food, dust that are scratching your beautiful hardwood flooring. So sweep and vacuum often… better yet, let us do it for you.

5. Use the right type of vacuum!

Not all vacuums are created equal! There are some vacuums that are not meant to smoothly glide through your floors and lack the suction strength required to pick up from a flat surface. If you use the wrong attachments you could also be scratching the floor as you try to avoid just that by removing the lose particles. Our professional team here at Honest Maids of Phoenix Arizona use Dyson vacuums with more suction power than most and with special attachments just for hard smooth flooring like hardwood.

Christina’s {a wife’s, working mom’s, family cook’s} busy day

Team-Member-2

Christina’s {a wife’s, working mom’s, family cook’s} busy day

Team-Member-2Early, fun, hectic, happy and sometimes magical!

As a full-time worker, wife, mother to two children (ages 5 and 7) and, as my husband will tell you, someone who likes to “do it all, and do it right” every day is a constant juggle and quest to create more time out of less and less available time. I have a regular job like any other person. Here is my day:

Wake-up: I’m an early bird—so I try to seize “Christina’s time” first thing in the morning (on weekends mostly). I get up between 4:30-5:30am and quickly scan my email, brush my teeth and get the kids’ stuff ready. No time to do the bed.

Breakfast: Super quick, something simple. No time to pick up and clean the kitchen.

School Run: You know how it is. Hectic in the morning and hectic in the evening.

Work Day: Well, you know that is too. Mostly blah.

Family Time: 6-7:30pm is family time, as many nights of the week as I can make it. When I get home I try to have something in mind for dinner, prepare it quickly so we can get to homework. Hubby helps me clean the kitchen sometimes, but often times there are other things that go neglected so is always a balancing act – what to clean and when to clean it.

(Sometimes the kitchen stays dirty until the weekend when we have more time to actually clean good and give it a fresh start for the following week)

Bed: By 9:00, that’s the goal anyway. But because we have so little time after work for family, homework, dinner, and clean up and then showers and prepping for bed we often lay down around 10:00 or 10:30! Only to wake up again at around 5am.

Weekends: We use about half a day to clean the entire house and wash our clothes. I do it mostly myself. Sometimes the house is so dirty I split the cleaning into Saturday and Sunday. I’m tired.

Honest Maids of Arizona cleans with all natural cleaning products, featuring Jessica Alba’s Honest Company cleaning products.

When me and my husband were writing down things on what was going to become the Arizona Honest Maids business plan one of the main things we both figured were important to us was the trustworthiness in the products we used in our home. Jessica Alba had then, recently launched her Honest Company and we loved the products we had tried. Their products are pricier than other non-organic or green products available but in our experience they are worth every penny.

Honest Maids is proud to announce that part of our Health Responsibility and Promise, we offer Honest Company cleaning products to you at no extra cost!

THAT’S RIGHT, YOU DO NOT PAY EXTRA FOR CARING ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.

My story

Here is a bit more about myself.

As a Hispanic growing up in Phoenix, I didn’t learn about the importance of a relaxed healthy lifestyle was until it was a bit too late. As society have a hectic modern schedule, always running errand, working, cleaning, we are also go-getters, entrepreneurs, and if you have a family your free-time is much less. A few years ago I became ill and that’s when the importance of a life with less chemicals, more organic, and eco-friendly products really became clear and as my health, time and husband’s time allowed we cleaned our home then needed to hire maids to help us out… Unfortunately, hiring the right maid service was so difficult and time consuming! Honest Maids was started because I believe that a clean home has the power to improve a person’s mood and promote a healthier lifestyle getting rid of the stressful and tiring chores around our home. Cleaning it for you must be so much better. We give you more free time, take away exhaustion, clean with safe products and offer our hands as friends!

I began searching for the best cleaning products that are industrial grade and as effective as the chemical based products used by other maids, I set out asking other maid clients for pet-peeves and wishes and created a cleaning method that is not only efficient but is sustainable and allows us to pay our maids more while charging you a lot less! This is something I am truly proud of and exited to be a part of.

Making HonestMaids A Scalable Business

Group of women standing in the circle, smiling at the camera, low angle view.

Yes, Honest Maids is a cleaning company but I don’t like to see it as just that. My purpose for creating this company has never been to give myself another job, or to be a business owner. In 2012 I became ill and after months of fighting high costs for cleaning services my husband and I decided it was time. We hired a few of the local cleaning companies, some freelance contractors and we were never satisfied with the level of service and their rates. I mean some of those rates are just ridiculous and the way they base their fees are so exaggerated. I began training my own hired contractor so that she would understand the perspective of good business operations and customer satisfaction; my background is in business and quality assurance. She loved it and her other clients did too. I knew I could help other families through better service and lower prices.
I want to share with you my plans (partial) as to how I am hoping to grow Honest Maids to be a scalable sustainable business here in the valley.
1. I will never outsource our core competitiveness which is our dedication to you, our neighbors and patrons.
2. Provide our team members with all the attention and care that is offered to our client family so that our team members can better provide for their families and don’t see the ‘maid industry’ as a temporary employment. Part of how I intend to do this is by training our Honest Maids in the areas of business, marketing and customer service.
3. Test! We are young and agile and I plan to take advantage of this by continuously testing new product offerings to you, new pricing strategies so that we can save you more money without sacrificing our Honest Maids livelihood. Test new products in house so that we can always make our services faster and more efficient and ever more safe.
4. Hire entrepreneurs.
5. Stay on top of a niche. By recognizing market deficiencies we can better test and better cater to your needs and offer amazing solutions for your home.
6. Always ask for new opportunities and provide those opportunities to our Honest Maids and team members.
7. Add more services to better serve you and your home.

Being green is about more than the cleaning products we use or clever taglines. Being green is about having a sustainable, family focused process that uses recycled materials and natural based products whose own brand focus is on par with our own and yours.
