Light House Cleaning
FAQs

2. How long is each light house cleaning session?
Sessions typically last up to 90 minutes to provide meaningful support without overwhelming your schedule.
3. Is this a professional cleaning service?
No, our volunteers provide light housekeeping support to ease daily chores but do not offer deep or specialized cleaning.
​​
4. Can volunteers clean bathrooms or kitchens thoroughly?
Volunteers can help with light tidying in these areas, but deep cleaning is outside the scope of this service.

9. Can I combine multiple services in one session?
Each service is unique and designed to be provided separately to ensure focused, quality support.
​​​
10. Can I schedule weekly or regular support?
Time-In Moms is here for the moments you need it most—not for ongoing or routine care. Our support is designed to offer short-term relief during especially overwhelming or transitional times. Think of it as a caring hand during life’s heavier seasons, not a weekly service.
​
11. Is there a charge for light house cleaning sessions?
Time-In Moms operates on a pay-it-forward philosophy: every session is offered at no cost to moms, made possible by those who give back—through donations or volunteer time—so another mom can experience the same care. Each session costs about $25 to provide, and when a mom can give that amount or more, she ensures the next mom receives the same support. Whether she contributes financially or not, every mom is always welcomed with open arms, because every mother deserves a break, a helping hand, and a moment to feel truly seen.
