Well-Paid Maids Senior Cleaner Sayem Noor: “Now I Can Spend More Time With My Family”

Sayem Noor, who emigrated from Bangladesh 17 years ago, worked two restaurant jobs before joining Well-Paid Maids.

The hours were demanding — from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. six days a week. Even so, he struggled to support his family because the pay was so low.

In April 2018, Sayem was searching for a job that would pay him well and allow him to take two days off a week. He came across a job listing for Well-Paid Maids. After a trial clean, he was hired.

Sayem has since been promoted to senior cleaner, and he works Sunday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

“Now I can spend more time with my family,” he says.

Plus, he earns a living wage of $22 an hour (plus tips) and gets lots of good benefits, like flexible hours; health, dental and vision insurance; paid time off; and more. Well-Paid Maids even paid $499 for Sayem to go to driving school so he could learn how to drive.

“My experience with the company has been phenomenal,” he says. “I have an awesome boss, Aaron, and awesome managers, Aubrey, Dasha and Lexi, who always help me with any issue I have at work.”

You can support a company that takes care of employees and come home to a spotless space. Book your cleaning with Well-Paid Maids today.

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
