Clarify private time when a domestic couple lives at the property
Living at the property should not make a domestic couple’s availability undefined. The employer needs to explain working periods, ordinary breaks and how genuinely exceptional requests are handled. Both workers should understand the arrangement individually rather than receiving it only through their partner.

Describe the normal working pattern
Set out the expected start, finish and main breaks for each role. Some duties may happen at different times, so avoid assuming both schedules are identical. State when the household should use its own arrangements. A live-in arrangement describes accommodation as well as work; it does not by itself explain the hours someone is expected to be available.
Respect the accommodation boundary
Explain how the household communicates a request without casually entering the workers’ private space. Agree ordinary access arrangements for any shared facilities. The employer should resolve practical housing questions before placement rather than after arrival. Keep discussion of accommodation separate from the assumption that every household task can be requested at any hour.
Define exceptional requests carefully
Give a clear contact and process for unusual needs outside the normal routine. Discuss how changes will be agreed and recorded. Do not label recurring late requests as exceptional simply because they were absent from the original brief. If they become normal, the working pattern needs review through Staffly with both workers involved.
Review both experiences separately
Ask each person whether the actual routine matches what was discussed. One partner may receive more interruptions than the other. Keep feedback respectful and do not expect them to negotiate workload privately on the employer’s behalf. The household should take responsibility for communicating consistent expectations and correcting an arrangement that has become unclear.
A practical example to adapt
Hypothetical example: the couple’s two roles have different finishing routines, both agreed in advance. Household members use the named contact for unusual changes and do not enter the accommodation to make ordinary requests. When evening requests become frequent, the employer reviews the schedule instead of continuing to call them exceptions.
