Who is responsible for cleaning and changing linen?
The Host Family should provide clean bed linen once a week. Please be aware that some students, especially the younger ones and particularly in the early stages of their stay, may need help changing their bed linen. Of course, as their confidence grows and as they become more familiar with routines, you will find that they learn to become more independent.
The Host Family is expected to provide a basic clean of the student’s room once a week but the guest will be responsible for keeping their room tidy.
The Host Family should also offer to wash one load of clothes per week. Alternatively the Host Family should provide all necessary for the student to do this. Again, please be conscious that some students may need assistance in operating your washing machine.
The guest will be responsible for providing their own towels and toiletries. However, it might be advisable to have spare towels available if convenient.
