Spring cleanings improve productivity and creativity by turning clutter into clear, focused workspaces.

The home’s clean slate can spark outside-the-box ideas for the new season.

Rosa Voque-Vasquez has cleaned our six homes since 2014.

Doing cleanings in Reston and Herndon and by getting to know the residents, Rosa has formed personal bonds with them. She often spends extra time chatting with them about family and fixing small issues like fixing toilets or sinks or cleaning carpet spots.

“Cleaning for Gabriel Homes is like cleaning for my family. I organize their spaces because every room should look better than it was before.”

When she started doing cleanings in Herndon and Reston, Rosa was unsure how she could connect with the residents.

Over time, her natural friendliness and interest in residents’ lives helped break the ice between them. Today, some residents see Rosa as family because she makes their homes feel cozy and visits them at Christmas parties.

“Our home looks amazing after Rosa sees us. She’s also a good friend because she’s kind to Rich and me. We’ve learned Spanish like ‘cómo está’ and ‘muy bien’ from her.”

With her clients, Rosa sees the importance clean homes have on people’s quality of life. She believes adults of all abilities deserve tidy homes and the right to live dignified lives. Her work, residents and staff say, makes a difference in everyone’s daily lives.

“Rosa is more than generous to Gabriel Homes. She’s invested in our residents’ well-being and helps them take pride in their living spaces.”

Rosa is passionate about cleanliness, the residents, and Gabriel Homes.

No matter the scope of the cleaning, Rosa rolls up her sleeves and gets to work. Rosa’s commitment to her work and empathy toward others have built a strong rapport with staff and lifelong friendships with residents. 

“Gabriel Homes loves everyone,” Rosa says. “The residents are loving, caring people, and I am blessed to be able to help them achieve independence.”
