February is Heart Month

Did you know? 

According to the American Heart Association, heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases actually kill more women than men. Heart Disease is almost 10 times more deadly than breast cancer. In fact, heart disease kills more women than all forms of cancer combined.” - Dr. Mehmet Oz, cardiothoracic surgeon and TV show host
 
Read the full article here.

Dr. Oz says for optimum heart health, we should all know our numbers:

  • Blood pressure
  • Cholesterol (HDL and LDL)
     

Plus, we should eat healthy and exercise. Dr. Oz suggests snacking on mixed nuts instead of sweets.

Regarding exercise, even 10 minutes a day of vigorous exercise is beneficial. Many people sit for long periods throughout the day so it’s important to stand up every 30 minutes or so and move around.
 
You can see Dr. Oz on the Today Show explaining the numbers. You can also see Al Roker’s heart on an echocardiogram.


Housekeeping Notes

Of course we have housekeeping notes in the Bay Cleaning newsletter! Here are a few things we'd like our customers to know:
 
Vacuum Cleaner Policy
At Bay Cleaning, our policy is to use the homeowner’s
vacuum. The main reason for this is so that we don’t bring dust, dirt, hair, pet dander, or other allergens into your home. Please have your vacuum cleaner out on cleaning day or leave a note reminding the cleaning technicians where to find it.
 
Checklist
Our cleaning technicians use a checklist that is on our brochure and on www.bay-cleaning.com.
 
The task list for a General Maintenance Clean is below. (Please see our website for the Top-to-Bottom Deluxe clean checklist.)
 
Please note: If you want our cleaning technicians to do extra tasks that are not on the list, please advise us ahead of time so we can adjust the estimate and schedule accordingly.


 
Linens
You’ll notice that the list below mentions changing a set of sheets. We do this if clean sheets are provided. Our cleaning technicians don’t have the extra time to wash sheets and then wait for them to dry, so please have clean linens ready if you’d like us to put them on the bed.

Reviews, please!

We often receive emails from our customers complimenting our cleaning technicians and saying how nice their house looks after we have cleaned. We love those messages!

We would be very grateful if you could share your positive experiences on our Facebook page. It just takes a few seconds and you’ll be helping people who are considering a cleaning service.


Money for your favorite charity!

We know that many of our customers have a favorite cause that is near and dear to their heart. Wouldn’t you love to do more to support your favorite organization? Now you can! 
 
When you refer someone who becomes a repeat customer, Bay Cleaning will donate $50 to the charity of your choice. All you have to do is ask the person you refer to mention your name when they schedule their cleaning. That’s it! We’ll connect with you to get the details so we can make the donation.


Perfect Valentine's Day Gift

Give the gift that your special someone will love: maid service for a year! It lasts so much longer than flowers or chocolate and will be sincerely appreciated. Customize your gift with the number of cleaning visits per month. Call Missy at 443-480-1266 to purchase a gift certificate.
