How much do you pay for housekeeping?
I am looking for a replacement for our housekeeper and was wondering what the median cost is. Right now we are paying $60 a week for our 1900sq ft house and would like to stay within that range but find someone that is not damaging our home in the process.

Can you tell us what is happening?
I'm curious because I think our housekeepers aren't careful either. Some of our wooden blinds are broken, and they keep scuffing the paint on our walls. Seriously...I can think of 3 rooms they've scuffed since starting a year ago (it *is* our fault we used flat paint, so the scuffs don't wipe off easily.)
Is this normal? Am I being picky?
She has been cleaning our house for a year now and in that time our brand new dressers have been scratched multiple times, paint has been scratched off the wall, we have an area on the stairs where it looks like her vacuum burned our carpet and just last week she put a nasty scratch that is about 2 ft long into our laminate.
