Putting a face to the business for everyone who doesn’t know me, I’m kat the proud owner of diamond cleaning services, I have 4 children aged 15,12,10 and 1, I moved to borth 8 years ago and started up my business originally as a single parent 7 years ago and it boomed with my hard work a 3 year old in tow & word of mouth! 7 years later I’m still running strong! Many of times I’m not going to lie I have questioned it 😂 I do every year actually probably daily without fail numerous of times and say I can’t do this I give up it’s not worth the stress but everyday I get up and make sure everyone’s holiday lets are ready for next guests to check in and make happy memories with their families and that over all the stress is worth it! Times I hate my job picking up pieces after people who leave places worse than a pig would and you question how do they live and I sit and think it’s all I do daily after fully grown adults and then I have to go home and do the same at home with 4 children etc I’m always cleaning up after everyone else but it makes me so happy to see other people happy and enjoying their holiday with children/ family and making memories that can never be replaced, as a mom myself to 4 children I know how it feels to see your kids face light up to a fantastic holiday spending much loved time with the nearest and dearest to you is all that matters, unfortunately I don’t get time to go on holiday in the summer with my children due to work commitments and that’s all my owners busiest times but I do my absolute best to make sure whether I just clean for owners or manage properties running on barely any sleep and plenty of red bull that guests arrive to the best they can and I take pride in my work as if it was my own, I see it as I look after the properties to what I would expect when I arrive on holiday, It’s not easy I have my 1 year old in tow with me and sometimes the other 3 children aswell in school holidays with tears, tantrums and arguements with the older 1s and also tears myself questioning why I do this to myself is it worth the stress!! If you’re a working mom who takes their children to work you will understand the stress especially with a 1 year old and may I add I worked up until the day I had my baby and was even dealing with work 3 hours after having my baby in hospital but I still continue to do it to make others happy and that’s what my business is all about! It’s not about myself because trust me I would of gave it up years ago or making money of course we all have to make a living but I choose to make it the hard way trust me as my job never stops day and night whether it’s working cleaning, going home washing bedding, invoicing, paying sub contractors, chasing money which lately is all I ever seem to do, replying to enquires about managed holiday let’s, doing booking confirmations and sorting out payments with guests and paying owners, guests who are in my managed holiday let’s, general maintenance for my managed let’s, general maintenance for my owners who I clean for, such as boiler problems, no heating, can’t get I. The caravan, keycode not working, key not there etc the list is never ending, I work 24/7! I get messages at 3am and there is no break, I don’t work the normal 9-5 and shut off when come home to my family but some how I manage home life and work 24/7, I have work around me with washing 24/7 sometimes I’m up most the night washing bedding for the next day and then have to go to work and look after 4 children but I do it to see other people happy! That is why I continue doing what I do even when I question it daily, it’s to see other people smile and make happy memories which can never ever be replaced which makes all the stress, tears and mental breakdowns worth every little bit of it! I appreciate every review I get and if you havnt left me review yet I would appreciate it if you could, a few minutes of your time means so much to a small independent business!
