This is something that needs to be said. Most of us do this and stay on top of it, but for a few, this can save your job and your credibility.

It is important that you have the housing situation understood before the contract is signed. Who is paying for the electric, internet, etc. These are items that need to be discussed with the client or the agency. It can be the Estate Manager, Butler, Household Manager, Domestic Couple, and or the Senior Companion. Take the time to view the housing while on the interview or through a video walk through.
A Note from Robert:
We are sensitive to the special relationship that exists between household employees and their employer and the way they affect the everyday life of those for whom they work. Finding a qualified employee is only the beginning. Our process is extremely individualized, and the resulting candidate recommendation is based equally on skill and personality. It is in the best interest of the client that we have a conversation about their needs. Everyone has a completely different lifestyle. One principal may want to cook their own dinners, and some may want a cooked and served meal every night. It is important to get the detail right from the beginning
