Will your next housekeeper be a robot?

It may sound far-fetched, but as artificial intelligence continues to evolve, questions are being asked about the role it could play in private households and the domestic sector.

Could AI help with household organisation and administration? Could it support the day-to-day running of a home? Or will the personal touch, discretion and expertise of experienced household staff always remain essential?

At Massey's Agency, we have been helping households find exceptional staff for over 181 years. In this article, we explore what the future may hold for AI in domestic staffing, where technology could offer support, and why the human element remains at the heart of outstanding household service.

Look what we found – photographs from a Massey's staff garden party believed to date back to the 1950s.

These wonderful images offer a glimpse into the history of an agency that has been placing exceptional household staff since 1845.

What began with Sarah Massey taking over a small domestic staffing business in Derby grew into one of the country's most respected household recruitment agencies. By the late nineteenth century, Mrs Massey's had become a household name and an authority on domestic service.

Today, 181 years later, we are proud to continue that tradition, connecting private households with experienced, reliable and professional staff.

A rich heritage. Trusted expertise. The same commitment to excellence.
