I'm sure he looked for housekeepers who could have a maternal relationship with Kimberly, Willis, and Arnold. And a young attractive housekeeper would be less likely to meet that qualification.

Adelaide was a cute little, old lady. She was like a grandmother for the children.
Mrs. Garrett was a fun loving motherly type. Pearl was a no nonsense strict disciplinarian type. I liked Adelaide the best.

Since Arnold and Willis were orphans and they both were black mr drummond best bet was to hire some fast talking sassy african american female housekeeper to be a mother figure to them lol.

no notice when they got a new house keeper each time they said something like the house maid agency is bringing over someone new for us and mr drummond was always accepted the 1st person who came to try out for the position because adelade was the 1st one and he hired her and then pearl was the 1st one sent after adelade left and they hired her so they get the maids from some agency mr drummond doesnt like hand select them he could of said no on pearl or adelade and they could of sent someone else but he never did

I think the reason why the actor who played mrs garret left is because that actress was popular at the time or even popular before different strokes or going to be a big star something like that so they wanted to give her sorta like her own show which was the facts of life where she had more of a leading role than different strokes
