Hi! I am Christina, also known as Christie, owner of Christie’s Cleaning. I was trained to be a cleaning professional as a teenager while working for a motel owner in a popular tourist city. I have cleaned professionally on and off since, usually on the side. In 2019, in between jobs and looking for my next path, I was approached by a friend with chemical sensitivities, inquiring if I would be willing to clean her home. Having made the switch to green cleaning in my own home for my own health and safety, I was familiar with the products and methods her household required, so I agreed. A few months later, I was approached by someone else with a similar request. They are not alone. I have discovered there is a need in the community for those who can and will provide a reliable, detail-oriented, quality cleaning that will not significantly add to one’s toxic load. In response to this, I founded Christie’s Cleaning LLC (aka Christie’s Green Cleaning) in 2021.

There are levels of green cleaning, just as there are levels of clean eating or clean living. There is a balance between living a healthy lifestyle and being able to interact with and function within the world in which we live. I do my best with what I know and what makes sense for my clients and for my company. I do not get bogged down with perfection, but I am continuing to grow in my knowledge of what is safe, healthy, and effective. While some clients are more concerned about fewer toxins emitted from cleaning products, others are more concerned about less waste or impact to the environment. And some clients do not care about any of that at all, but allow me to be who I am while still providing them with a quality service that makes sense for them.

I clean for everyone, not just for those who are chemically sensitive. I enjoy changing paradigms and witnessing the surprise and delight of those who did not expect non-toxic cleaning products to be as effective! Upon request of the client, I may consider the use of a product I do not carry. This is fine, so long as I determine there will not be substantial negative impact to my health or the health of my team.

My goal is for you to “Breathe easy”, spending more time on what is important to you, and confidently enjoying cleaner air as you do so!

If you have any questions about what a professional cleaning could do for you, please reach out and schedule a consultation. I am happy to help!
