Thank you for your email and for the delightful meeting this morning. Registration complete, I am extremely happy with the level of personalised attention you provide to each role. I feel comfortable and confident in your hands.

Housekeeper

It was so nice hearing your voice this morning over the phone! Such good memories of my first years in London, tough as they were!. However, I will never forget how much you helped me and all the invaluable wise advice that you shared with me.

Lady Butler

I must say that out of all the agencies I’ve registered with past and present I can say with absolute confidence that my first impressions of you and your service is first class. Thank you in advance for all your hard work and Input in helping me to find my next role.

Housekeeper

Thank you so much for reaching out. It is definitely very rare to have a wonderful follow up so I am deeply moved by your gesture of kindness.

Butler Fiji

Hi Clare, It was lovely to meet you. You are an inspiration and you really made me think about myself and my own happiness in my search for my future employment. I absolutely love your agency. Its one of care and gives great attention to everyone’s needs. I was browsing through the other night and I love the way you keep in touch with the people at their placements. I really admire that and how you are conscientious and thoughtful of where to place different people. I find that very uplifting!! and it gives me great confidence. I will take on board advice. I feel you get to know people extremely quickly!! Thankyou again Clare for a lovely interview.

House manager

Thank you for your kind words. I will recommend you and have in the past. I always enjoyed chatting with you as you are straight talking.

Couple Wales

It was great speaking with you Clare. Thank you so much for your time and advice. It is really appreciated. Feeling so excited and happy about our future

Couple

Just wanted to let you know that you are one of the few (or maybe the only one) agents that gave me a clear idea of what is happening during a recruitment process.

Housekeeper

You are so kind for sharing the relevant information that we need. It’s so hard when applying for a new position… Employers always look for experience which we understand but how to get the experience when no ones willing to give us a chance? We do believe with all the valuable skills gained over the years in the Hospitality Industry there is no doubt we can perform the duties asking of us. Thank you again for taking the time to share your guidance.

New couple

I trust you are well. Thank you for the chat on WhatsApp yesterday. Initially, I did not quite grasp what you were trying to explain to me in the beginning, but then did!. I do respect your professionalism and advice.

International Chef/Housemanager

Thank you very much for your suggesting a cooking course, it is really helpful. I have actually looked for one before, but did not find any thing which will be useful (they were all just one day, or just specific cuisine). I also hope our paths do cross. I wish you all the best, good luck and success – you sound absolutely fabulous. Your web site is really stylish and welcoming too.

We hope that business is good for you Clare and that Domestic bliss appointments go from strength to strength, you are still the best Domestic Agent in the field…!! No other agency has shown as much care and consideration to our welfare as you have…!!

Couple, London

Good morning Clare, good to hear from you and glad things are going well…!! We had a look at your new ‘brochure’ it is an excellent concept and a long awaited approach to this funny ‘ol business!! In our experience it is amazing how many people treat their staff with a demeaning attitude!! It is more than a job to us, it is a lifestyle and often 24/7 even off duty we are very much ‘onsite’ and available, we are very flexible but sometimes the mutual respect for privacy and down time is very much one sided. As you know we are searching again for that ‘illusive’ possibly fictitious ‘perfect’ position. Our judge of character has proved to be no measure in which to go by. It does not look too good that we are now in our third, full time position in this business and now looking for our fourth!! Unfortunately our side of the stories are often unheard. Still, we are not quite yet broken and we are going to give one more position a try before we throw in the towel and change our career paths. With the launch of Domestic Bliss Appointments we have renewed faith and hope that finally a position with good, honest, genuine, mentally stable, emotionally unchallenged, realistic and non patronising employers comes our way…..fingers crossed!! :-)

Couple, Cornwall

Afternoon Clare, Just a wee update on our position re working as a couple. After your recommendations/editing our CV we secured a job in the Highlands. We are over the moon. The clients are fantastic. M & I want to thank you so much for all your assistance. If you hadn’t guided us, we’d most likely still be struggling to get our foot in the door, and show our potential!

Couple

Hi Clare, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to speak with me this morning. You gave me lots of useful information which I have taken on board. I feel so much more confident on which way to continue forward with our new Housekeeping venture.

Applicant

Thanks for all the tips, details and my CV. The CV you have created really illustrated me as a person and my experience, so I can’t thank you enough.

Nanny Housekeeper

Thank you Clare, you are one of the few (only) person(s) who took the time to explain this to me. I greatly appreciate it and will follow your kind advice.

Couple

Thank you so much for your time this morning, it was such a pleasure to speak with you too and it has given me a big boost of confidence that I’m in safe hands to find a fantastic new role that’s right for me.

House manager

A big thank you for our last phone conversation who helped me to project myself into this opportunity.

Housekeeper

The CV is fabulous and is a transformation of what I sent you. I am very grateful. The first agent asked to keep my CV, and would be in touch if the client wanted to see additional candidates. No one has been in touch with me since then.The other agent contacted me on Thursday and said they wanted to talk to me on Friday about my candidacy in more detail and discuss the positions (more than one!) they had available. No one has been in touch with me since then.Neither of them had taken the time and trouble to ask me to properly re-write my CV, as you have done. Neither of them had invested the time in me that you have.Thank you so much for the guidance and advice

Global Estate manager

It was an absolute pleasure to chat with you yesterday. Bodhi and I have had long discussions about the next step this year in the current situation and we’ve decided we will join private yachts for the season/ or 1yr contract. With this in mind we won’t pursue the role discussed any further. However I cannot thank you enough for our discussion yesterday, how refreshing it was to speak to a agent that is so passionate and professional about provided a fully planned out and excellently delivered recruitment process for an industry that so desperately needs it. I have no doubt when I am ready to go land based, you will be the first person I call!

Couple

It was the most exciting and informative interview, nothing to compare with the other interviews we had with other agencies.

Couple

Adri and I wish to extend our sincerest gratitude to you for all your amazing input and time spent explaining how to present our CV’s …this has been invaluable to the both of us. I don’t believe that in my entire history of applying for jobs and revising my CV, speaking to recruiters or employers anyone has ever taken the time and made the effort to point me in the right direction.

Anon

Thank you for your time, enthusiasm and great CV feedback and top tips
