Busy days? Evening household assistance available until 10pm.

Your Personal Assistant for Everyday Life

There's only one of me.

And only so many hours in the week.

Hi, I'm Leah!

I personally help busy households around Toronto and Lake Macquarie with the everyday jobs that take up precious time. From laundry, shopping and errands to organising, household admin and making life run a little more smoothly, I'm here to take a few things off your plate.

But here's the thing. It's just me! I'm not an agency with a team of people. When you book The Household PA, you get me, the same familiar face, every visit.

That means I can only look after a limited number of households each week. If you've been thinking how lovely it would be to have a regular helping hand, now's a great time to enquire.

A little heads-up about availability.

Now Accepting Regular Booking Enquiries

I'm currently welcoming enquiries for weekly and fortnightly household assistance. Get in touch to discuss your preferred day.

Because I personally deliver every visit, my weekly diary has limited capacity. Regular clients are given priority when arranging ongoing appointment times.

If you have a particular day in mind, I'd encourage you to get in touch early so we can see what works. All bookings are subject to availability, location and suitability.

Imagine having a few extra hours to yourself every week.

Life gets busy. The washing piles up, errands take over your lunch break, and that never-ending to-do list somehow keeps getting longer. Imagine having someone reliable come in and help get those everyday jobs sorted. Someone who knows your household, understands your priorities and gets on with things. That's what The Household PA is all about.

  • Get your time back

    Spend less time catching up on household jobs and more time enjoying the things that matter.

  • One familiar face

    No rotating staff or unfamiliar visitors. When you book me, I'm the person who turns up.

  • Help that suits your household

    Every household is different. You choose the priorities, and I'll work through the agreed tasks during your visit.

  • Less mental clutter

    From organising appointments to sorting household paperwork and errands, I can help lighten your everyday load.

  • Reliable regular support

    Weekly or fortnightly visits provide a familiar routine and a little breathing room in your calendar.

  • More time for living

    Enjoy your evenings, reclaim some weekend time or simply have fewer things to worry about.

The little jobs add up. Let me take a few off your list.

You don't need to book a different person for every everyday task. During your scheduled visit, I can help with a combination of agreed household jobs, depending on your priorities and the time available.

  • Laundry

    Washing, drying, folding and putting clothes away.

  • Shopping & Errands

    Grocery shopping, parcel collection and everyday household errands.

  • Household & Life Administration

    Appointments, organising paperwork, coordinating trades and keeping household tasks on track.

  • Sorting & Organising

    Decluttering cupboards, sorting belongings and making everyday spaces easier to manage.

  • Friendly Technology Help

    Assistance with phones, tablets, computers, online forms and everyday digital tasks.

  • Home Cooking & Meal Preparation

    Simple meals prepared in your kitchen using your ingredients and equipment.

  • Small Pets & Holiday Home Check-ins

    Short visits for suitable small pets and general holiday home checks, subject to suitability and availability.

I'm a personal household assistant, not a house cleaner, nanny or personal care provider. Cleaning, ironing, bed-making, sheet changing, heavy lifting, childcare and medical or personal care are not included.

A regular helping hand, just the way you need it.

Some households need help every week. Others prefer a fortnightly visit to stay on top of things. Let's find a routine that works for your home and my availability.

Illustrated portrait of Leah Gibbs

Hello again! I'm Leah.

I'm a Toronto local with more than 20 years of experience in business, administration, customer service and keeping things organised. I've spent a big part of my working life helping people get things organised, solve problems and make life a little easier.

Now I'm bringing that experience closer to home. I started The Household PA because I love the idea of offering practical, personal help to people in my own community.

I'm not building a big agency. I want to get to know the households I help, understand what makes their lives easier and provide a service they genuinely look forward to having. When you book me, you deal directly with me. No rotating team. No complicated arrangements. Just a friendly, experienced helping hand. And perhaps a little more time for the good stuff in life.

What happens when my diary fills up?

You can still put your hand up!

Because The Household PA is a one-person business, there may be times when I can't take on another regular household straight away. If that happens, I'll offer a waiting list for people who would like to hear when a suitable appointment becomes available.

It's a simple way to let me know you're interested without having to keep checking back.

  1. Step 1

    Tell me what you need

    Complete the short enquiry form and let me know your suburb, preferred days and the type of help you're looking for.

  2. Step 2

    I'll review your request

    I'll consider your location, the services required and how your preferred times might fit my schedule.

  3. Step 3

    I'll be in touch

    If a suitable regular appointment becomes available, I'll contact you to discuss the details.

Joining the waiting list does not guarantee a booking or a particular appointment date. Availability depends on location, service requirements, existing commitments and suitability.

Would you love a little more time in your week?

Tell me what you're looking for, and let's see how I can help. Whether you'd like a regular weekly visit, a fortnightly helping hand or to register your interest for future availability, I'd love to hear from you.

I only need your suburb for now. Please don't include your full address, passwords, alarm codes or key locations.

Questions about regular bookings

Life's too short for a never-ending to-do list.

If a little practical help each week would make your life easier, I'd love to hear from you. Because there's only one of me, regular appointment times are limited. Tell me what you need, and we'll see if we can find a time that works.

A little help. A lot more living.
