Looking For Cleaners In Canberra?
“School run, work meetings, ageing parents – when did life get so?…” We see you.
Your to-do list is epic. Your parents need help. You need a break (or even just a nap!). This is where we come in.
Family Clean is your personal matchmaker, connecting you with friendly local cleaners in Canberra to take some of the load off at home – whether it’s every week, fortnight, or simply whenever you need a hand.
More Than Just a Cleaning Service
Every week is different, every home is different… We get it! So, we made a better way to find help.
Whether you just need the big hitters done or want someone to tackle everything you don’t have time for — we’ve got two ways to support your Canberra home.
Simply choose the service that suits you, book the time you need, and prioritise your tasks. It’s your clean, your way.
Home Assistant
The full works. From basic cleaning to chopping veggies for dinner, ironing, watering the plants, walking the dog, or reorganising the linen cupboard — mix and match what gets done, when it needs to be done.
Barefoot Basics
Floors and bathrooms, done well. No kitchens, no dusting, no extras — just the essentials that make your home feel clean. Weekly or fortnightly at one flat rate.
Supported Every Step
You’re not on your own. Our team (we call them Mother Ducks) check in after your first service and regularly along the way. Need a replacement? We’ve got you covered. Not the right fit? Our Match Guarantee means we’ll find someone better — and your next service is on us.
Why Family Clean?
Finding the right person to help at home shouldn’t be harder than quantum physics.
That’s why we do the hard work for you.
We’ve been playing matchmaker for home help since 1994, finding people who need a hand with those born to lend one.
These Canberra Cleaners and Home Assistants are the kind of people who:
- Remember your Dad hates asking for help (and cleverly find ways to assist without making him ask)
- Know exactly how to fold your fitted sheets (which we’re convinced is some kind of dark magic)
- Someone who’ll happily feed your sourdough starter when you’re away (and secretly name it)
- Will totally NAIL your floors and bathrooms
Are they perfect? Hardly. But they’re real. And in our experience, real beats perfect every time.
Don’t just take our word for it! Read about the experience straight from the people who have been matched (no paid actors, we promise).

FAQs
What should I expect at my first service?
Every Canberra home is different — and your match wants to get it right from the start. Whether you’re particular about how things are done or prefer a more relaxed approach, they’re all ears. For Home Assistants, it’s a chance to share your wish list, talk through the quirks of your space, and agree on what’s achievable in the time booked.
For Barefoot Basics, a quick walk-through helps your cleaner understand which floors and bathrooms to prioritise and any surfaces that need special care.
From there, your match just gets better. Regular clients find their service improves with every visit as your cleaner or Home Assistant learns exactly how your household runs.
Got feedback? Share it anytime — directly with your match, or through our team. We check in after your first service and regularly from there to make sure things are tracking well.
Are Barefoot Basics Cleaners and Home Assistants pet friendly?
Absolutely! We ask about pets in your booking so we can match you with someone who loves animals as much as you do. Many of our cleaners and Home Assistants have fur-families of their own, so they’re no strangers to tackling tumbleweeds of fluff.
For Barefoot Basics, your cleaner will work around your furry friends while getting those floors and bathrooms sparkling.
For Home Assistants, you can go a step further — water bowls filled, a walk around the block, or some bonus pats while you’re out. Just let your match know and they’ll be happy to help.
What is the Match Guarantee for regular services?
Our Match Guarantee means that if you’re not completely happy with your Cleaner or Home Assistant after they’ve had a chance to get to learn the unique rhythm of your home, simply tell us why and we’ll help match you with a better fit and your next service on us. We genuinely care about your experience (we rely on our reputation to continue supporting our crews), so when things may go wrong, we make every effort to turn it around.
How much time should I book for my Canberra home?
Start with what works for your budget (and house size for Barefoot Basics) — and you can always adjust from there.
Not sure what’s achievable in the time? No worries. Your Barefoot Basics Cleaner or Home Assistant will be upfront about what can get done and work through your priorities with you.
For Barefoot Basics, there’s a handy sizing guide on the booking form to help you estimate how much time your floors and bathrooms will need.
For Home Assistants, you’ve got room to flex — add more time, pare back the list, or rotate different tasks across your weekly or fortnightly services. Whatever suits your home.
Minimum booking times apply for each service. Hit the ‘Match Me Now‘ button to see pricing and options.
YOUR SERVICE
