By Lisa Gomez, Contributing writer for Macaroni Kid Livingston December 29, 2023

Lisa Gomez is a professional house cleaner and organizer. Macaroni Kid Livingston is happy to partner with her to bring order to your home. Her tips and tricks for house cleaning are sure to bring a sense of calm to your daily life.

The power of a consistent cleaning schedule provides value to you and your family. Here are a few examples of how consistency in cleaning your home benefits you, as an individual, your children and those around you. Adding a professional cleaning service as we enter the new year could be a game changer, giving you back valuable time and peace of mind.

Mental Clarity 

There’s something about having a clean & organized space that provides mental clarity. It lets you breathe and think more clearly when everything is in place. People are generally more productive when they have a clean & organized space. 

Being surrounded by clutter makes it harder for you to focus. The act of decluttering and maintaining a regular clean can even provide peace and mindfulness.

A professional cleaner and organizer has the fresh set of eyes to point out improvements for organizing that may not seem obvious to those living in the space.

Health Benefits 

Having a clean & sanitized home can help prevent many colds & illnesses. Especially for those who have allergies, asthma, lung disease, sleep apnea, & immunocompromised individuals such as cancer patients. 

Cleaning hard surfaces regularly is a good way to cut down on sources of infection. Hard surfaces include countertops, tabletops, and bathroom vanity tops. Be sure to clean frequently touched items as well, including doorknobs, light switches, faucets, and remote controls.

Time Management 

Having a professional cleaning company come in to clean your home can open up alot of time. You can focus on the things that matter most whatever that may be! How much time do you spend cleaning your home? 

When is the last time you personally did a deep clean? 

Most of the time the answers are. I dont have time, I tidy the best I can and wipe down as much as I can but I haven’t had time to get to the things that take me longer. Why?! Because of Time!! 

Peace of Mind 

You gain peace of mind when you know that you have a consistent cleaning schedule and you know that you have a reliable cleaning company to do the things you dont have time or energy to do. 

Research has shown that for women in particular, clutter can cause a spike in cortisol, also known as the stress hormone. Reducing clutter and organizing where you put what on a regular basis can eliminate the common stressor of searching and rummaging around your house.

Stress-Free Product Decisions

Regular, professional cleans mean you don't have to stress about what products to use or not to use on your hard to clean surfaces. You don’t even have to think about it because your cleaning company is professional trained and provide great expertise & are efficient. 

Cleaning professionals often use products that may not be readily available to individuals resulting in a thorough & effective cleaning. 

Happiness 

I have yet to meet an individual that is not happy to have their home professionally cleaned. We don’t judge here at Lisa’s organizing & cleaning services. It’s completely okay to have a professional cleaning company do the work you don’t want to do because you have no time, energy, or just absolutely dislike it.


My name is Lisa Gomez, owner of Lisa's Organizing and Cleaning Services here in Livingston County. I am a 35-year-old proud mother of 3 children and an angel We live with our 3 cats, and my supportive partner, Joshua. 

I’m from the southwest, New Mexico is my home state and I met my partner, Joshua in Arizona. We moved to Michigan in June of 2016. 

It was quite the culture/climate shock acclimating to the midwest. I acquired my first few clients in the fall of 2016. I started a different job in 2017, but realized what I truly wanted to do and took a leap of faith in 2019 after having my youngest child. 

Being my own boss while helping others has been the best thing for our family. I have been able to be more present for my children every morning & afternoon during the school year. As my business has grown I have created this same opportunity for others who now work for me. We have a small team but have been growing over the years.
