Who cleans your house?

What do they do, mostly floors? That is where I think I need to hire help. I don't mind dusting at all and since we live in a very dusty old house, I do it pretty regularly. But we have wooden floors with lots of area rugs, both large and small, and it is getting harder and harder to clean the wooden part. You basically have to get on your hands and knees to dust it first and then to wash it with vinegar and water.

I'm 72 and clean my wood floors all the time, but I gave up long ago on doing it on my hands and knees (arthritis). Sweep first, and use a wet mop with a container on the handle for the liquid and an integrated sprayer, so I can do it all standing up.
