In Belgium we have this great thing called servicecheques (="dienstencheques"). It is a government sponsored project where you can buy a servicecheque for 9 euro's, and you will get 3 euro's back from taxes.

Each cheque represents 1 hour of work such as house cleaning, ironing, meal preparing, etc.

This system is to promote low-wage work, but also has the nice benefit so people can cheaply buy home services. Wages are pretty high in Belgium, so this is an ideal solution for both people doing that kind of work, and working people in high need for such services.
