A London Virtual Assistant’s Guide to Running Your Home Like a Five-Star Hotel (Without Lifting a Finger)

Imagine walking into your home after a long day. The fridge is stocked with family favourites, fresh flowers are brightening the space, the dry cleaning is hanging in your wardrobe, and tonight’s dinner is booked. All arranged—without any effort from you.

If you’re a high-achieving professional with pressure on you all day, your home should be your sanctuary.

But the demands of work, family and everything in between leave little bandwidth to keep things running as you’d like.

That’s where a having a personalised support system comes in. Think of it as turning your home into a five-star experience, built entirely around you.

Here’s one of our top Virtual Assistant’s guide to making this dream a reality.

 

1. Treat Yourself Like the VIP Guest You Are

Your favourite wine or hand cream, a gorgeous scented candle, your go-to oat milk at the ready. Whether it’s Ocado for staples or a Flowerbx subscription for that weekly floral touch, setting up systems to deliver on repeat, ensures your home feels full of the things that make you happy. As if it's always been expecting you.

Here’s how:

  • Set up recurring deliveries so there’s always a healthy meal only minutes away from ready

  • Pre-order seasonal must-haves for Easter, Mother’s Day, yes, even a Christmas tree, delivered and decorated each year

  • Maintain a weekly floral order—because every home is more elegant with flowers

  • Your PT, hair, nail and spa appointments scheduled ahead, so me-time is non-negotiable

And if you’d rather not think about it at all, enlist the support of a Virtual Assistant. One ping, and it’s handled.

Hint: Consider it Done is the go-to, all UK Virtual Assistant service in London.

 

2. Schedule Like a CEO (Because You Are One)

No business could thrive without a well managed calendar. Why should your home be any different? From window cleaning and boiler services, to birthday reminders and school dates, you need to be all over the details to make sure things run like clockwork in your home.

How to achieve it:

  • Schedule routine home maintenance and specialist one-offs in advance

  • Use a reminders tool for everything from MOTs to Wedding gifts

  • Layout your whole family’s activities in a single household calendar everyone can share

Bonus: sign up for Consider it Done’s free House & Home calendar and save reminders, ideas and advice straight to your digital diary.

And if you're done with missed appointments or last-minute fire fighting, our Virtual EAs make sure nothing slips through the net​. Whether it’s a seasonal wardrobe swap, a kitchen re-stock or the dog’s groomer booked in, we’re on it.

3. The Best Black Book in London (Without Building It Yourself)

Frantic Googling for a handyman mid-crisis. Or the 10pm shift at the laptop to find a decorator. We feel your pain.

Make sure you engage a personal support service with a ready-made Black Book of contacts of every kind, for whatever life brings along.

4. Create a Home You Actually Want to Come Back To

Stress-free mornings thanks to a beautifully organised wardrobe. Your Home Automation is running smoothly and there’s soft music and mood lighting. The delicious smell of almost-ready dinner from the kitchen means someone else has cooked. Evenings to yourself again, because the organising is already done.

With a Virtual Assistant in your life, you’ll:

  • Reset your home space regularly so it runs smoothly

  • Keep home organising and maintenance under control, managed behind the scenes

  • Find the calm you need to re-charge fully and perform at your best next day

Because success at work depends on feeling in control at home​.

 

Why Do It Yourself?

You have bigger things to think about than meal plans, gift-wrapping and car servicing. A beautifully run home isn’t a luxury—it’s the foundation you need to be the incredible parent, partner and business leader you are.

When you’re ready to stop running, and start living again, we’re here.

And we’re not only here to help: we’re here to change the game.
