Live-in domestic staff in Seville and Western Andalusia
Maids & Co is an agency specialising in the selection of live-in domestic staff for families and properties in Seville and Western Andalusia: the city and the Aljarafe, Jerez, El Puerto de Santa María, Córdoba, Huelva and the inland estates.
From an apartment in Los Remedios or Heliópolis to an estate near Córdoba or Jerez, roles range from traditional household duties to cooking, driving, childcare, personal assistance, maintenance, running the residence and coordinating a team.
LIVE-IN DOMESTIC STAFF IN SEVILLE AND WESTERN ANDALUSIA
We select the profile each property really needs
Every family needs a staffing structure suited to its way of life, its priorities and the way its residence runs.
In Seville itself, a live-in housekeeper covering cleaning, cooking and ironing, a nanny or a mixed role may be enough; in Simón Verde, Mairena del Aljarafe or Tomares, the house may call for a house manager, driver, chef or several live-in staff. Country estates and farmhouses with land suit a domestic couple or a caretaker at home with grounds, vehicles and maintenance.
A seasonal house in El Puerto is not run like the family's main home in Seville, nor a city-centre apartment like an estate far from the nearest village: we settle the profile, experience and availability before the search starts.
We select live-in staff across the main residential and rural areas
+ estates across Western Andalusia
Seville city
Live-in staff for city and family residences
From large apartments to family houses with a bigger household: a live-in housekeeper for cleaning, ironing and cooking, a nanny, governess, house manager, chef, driver or personal assistant. Where the family entertains often, cooking and looking after guests matter most.
Aljarafe, Simón Verde and around Seville
Staff for houses with gardens, pools and more to organise
On top of the house and the kitchen come driving, grounds, vehicles, maintenance and suppliers. When the property needs a broader presence, a domestic couple divides the responsibilities clearly.
Jerez and El Puerto de Santa María
Staff for residences, family homes and seasonal properties
Live-in staff for resident families and for houses used at certain times of the year. Where there is an estate or a large property, we assess whether a domestic couple, a caretaker or a team of several professionals suits it best.
Córdoba and inland estates
Staff for residences and rural properties
A steady presence, basic maintenance, driving, grounds, animals and general oversight. We keep household duties separate from the work that belongs to farming, livestock or technical specialists.
Huelva and the western coast
Staff for family homes and second residences
Live-in staff for main homes and holiday houses, with the role shaped around how much the property is actually used and what each family needs.
LIVE-IN STAFF
An arrangement built on residence and stability
In Seville and Western Andalusia our selection processes are for live-in positions only.
Lives in the home
Lives in the property
The professional resides in the property or in accommodation provided by the family and works the hours agreed.
Not round-the-clock availability
Duties, hours, rest periods, accommodation and how the role is organised are defined from the outset.
When it fits
When the family needs continuity, the property needs a steady presence, there is frequent travel or the location makes living in advisable.
LANGUAGES AND INTERNATIONAL FAMILIES
Professionals able to work in international households
When the family or its guests speak English or another language, we build it into the profile and check at interview that the candidate communicates easily with the children, the other staff and suppliers.
Language is assessed as one more professional skill, according to the needs of each position.
Common languages
Spanish
English
DOMESTIC COUPLES
Domestic couples in Seville and Western Andalusia
We select live-in domestic couples for main residences, second homes and estates, distinguishing the experience each type of property calls for. We assess both professionals together, look at how they actually shared duties in previous posts and check their references.
In an Aljarafe house with a garden and pool, a couple can split the interior and cooking on one side and the driving, vehicles, maintenance and oversight of the property on the other. For estates around Córdoba, Jerez or Huelva we also select caretaker couples who know the land and animals.
A single point of contact who knows your home, from the first call to the start of the role.

Yes. In Mairena del Aljarafe, Simón Verde, Tomares and the area around Seville we select live-in housekeepers, house managers, chefs, drivers and domestic couples for houses with gardens and pools, as well as staff for apartments in Los Remedios, El Porvenir or Heliópolis.
We do not place hourly staff in Western Andalusia: we only select staff who live in the house or in accommodation the family provides. Duties, hours, rest periods and accommodation are agreed before the start, because living at the property is not the same as being on call at all times.
The search itself is free. Only when the person starts and the family is satisfied is a one-off fee invoiced, equal to one month of the agreed salary plus VAT; there are no subscriptions or lock-in and, if the family is not satisfied during the first month, we refund 50% of the fee.
No. For Seville we interview remotely, travel when the role calls for it and verify references with previous employers. The first candidates arrive in under 3 hours.
Yes. For estates and rural properties we select caretakers and caretaker couples experienced in maintenance, grounds, vehicles and animals, and we keep household duties separate from the work that belongs to farming, livestock or technical specialists.
The family is the employer. If preferred, our in-house employment team prepares the contract and registers the employee with Social Security, with the accommodation and rest-day terms already agreed during the selection.
