A woman has become the world’s first professional bed warmer.

Viktoria Ivachyova lends a hand to people who want their bed to be warm as soon as they get into it at night, by renting her professional bed warming services.

The 21 year old charges £65 per night or £1,350 per month to lay in a stranger’s bed for an hour in order to make their chilly sheets cosy enough to help them drift off to sleep with ease.

Once booked, the professional bed warmer arrives at the client’s home at a scheduled time slot before their bedtime, puts on her pyjamas, and lays in their bed for an hour.

Viktoria tells clients they are allowed to present in the room whilst she warms their bed up for them, but they cannot touch her. To reinforce these rules, she carries a panic button which alerts a security team should she need it.

The rules are only in place to make sure Viktoria is safe, and she does allow her clients to talk to her whilst she works. Some of her customers even talk to her about their problems, and the Daily Mirror newspaper reports she claims to be a “great listener”.

The demand is so high for her service, Viktoria is now said to be putting together a team of bed warmers to tackle the increasing number of clients.
