About Domestic Matters

Domestic Matters is a Kirkcaldy-based business, run by local mum, entrepreneur and house-proud cleaner Cara Cameron. The businesses is closely tied to motherhood: Cara set up her cleaning service in 2011, shortly after the birth of her first son, because she didn’t want to go back to work full time.

Her initial idea was simply that cleaning was something she could do well, other people needed, and a part-time job cleaning would give her more time to spend with her new family. However, Cara slightly underestimated just how much fellow Kirkcaldy parents and busy workers needed and wanted some help in the home. Soon, work was coming in thick and fast, such was the demand for a trustworthy cleaning service to help people enjoy more of their busy lives. Cara found herself building a the team of skilled cleaners and before she knew it, she was running a business across Kirkcaldy.

While the business grew, so did Cara’s family. The addition of a second son, and many happy customers, has ensured she still has plenty of first hand experience of exactly what it takes to work and look after a growing household. She knows that, however much we want to keep the home clean, it will always be low on the list of priorities when young children are growing up fast – not to mention any work or business ambitions!

As Cara learned to juggle business and family, it became her mission to ensure other working parents get to enjoy their kids as well. This is done by offering a personalised, friendly but professional service to clients over the Kirkcaldy and surrounding areas –

“It is very difficult for us mums to be able to work and also be there for after school care, and generally enjoy watching our children grow up,” says Cara. ”I am delighted my job allows this and that we can offer that opportunity to other mums also. I love to see how we .are helping families enjoy weekends together instead of stressing about who is cleaning the bathrooms or who is doing the ironing!”

Domestic Matters works because a little help, for a modest cost, goes a long way.

Cara would like to thank all previous, present and future clients for helping her achieve her dreams.
