(File Photo)   Chinanews, Beijing, September 10 - Senior housekeepers are in great demand in Beijing, and their average annual income has risen to the tune of close to 200 thousand yuan($25 thousand).

 

The employers of senior housekeepers are high-income earners like chief executives, movie or music stars, etc., who need housekeeper's service as they don't have time to manage the housework themselves.

 

Housekeepers originated from France, and they used to be the symbol of luxurious life. This post disappeared in China long ago, but it has come back to the market to meet the urgent needs there.

 

It is never easy to get housekeepers certificates in China nowadays. Firstly, a capable housekeeper must be a well-educated person with moral integrity. Secondly, they have to take more than 20 special training courses including cooking, nutriology, finance management, traveling, etiquette, jewelry, chromatology, etc. Only after the training can they get certifications at different levels.
