Whether its taking over some of those essential domestic chores, food or gift shopping, house sitting, or even if its some secretarial admin support for you and your business, Precious Time is here to give you some freedom and enable you to get some valuable time back for yourself.

Precious Time offers a flexible service to businesses and individuals.  Simply hand us your ‘to do’ list and we’ll take over.  No job is too big or too small.

We are happy to work by the hour or create a plan that would suit you and your needs.  Remember there are no joining fees or monthly subscriptions, you only pay for the hours of Precious Time that you need when you need them.

 

About Us

 

Having worked as a PA and office manager for over 15 years, and as a busy mother of 2.  I understood how difficult it was to complete all the tasks required from a busy work/life schedule and so Precious Time was born.

says Joanne Hutchinson, former PA, Office Manager and Founder of Precious Time

 

After doing some essential research it was obvious that there was definitely a market for this type of service considering findings which revealed:

1 in 5 full time employees are not happy with their work-life balance.

23% of full time British workers never take a break during work and 7% do not even take a holiday!
