Hi


We are looking for a transfer maid either from Indo or Philippines. My current helper will be going home soon. We have a 2.5 year old son whom the helper will need to look after during the times when I go to the office (work from home most time), in addition to Housekeeping and cooking.

Please PM me if you have a maid for transfer.

Hi


My Indo helper will be going home soon. Anyone has a maid for transfer? Need to have experience looking after young toddler. General Housekeeping and cooking. Family of 3. Please PM me if you have maids you are looking to let go.

I disagree with the post recommending Island Maids to be a good agency. They are a scam. When I first applied for a Indo maid with them, I paid $700+ as a first deposit. After waiting for a period of time, I receive an SMS from the guy servicing me (can’t remember the name now but works in the Ang Mo Kio central branch) informing me that The Maid will be arriving next week and to be prepared to go to the office to pick the helper up. When the day as stated by the agency came, I didn’t hear from them on what time we should go down to the agency. When I called the guy, he started to give excuses that The Maid had not arrived because she didn’t get a flight ticket to Singapore! She was supposed to arrived in Singapore on this day and they just knew this? Anyway, since I was not in a real hurry to have the helper, I told them ok I can accept this "mistake" and will wait 2 more weeks. 2 weeks came and went and again no news until I called up. Then a few days later, the SMS came again to inform me the helper will arrive in a few days. One day before the helper were to arrive, my mum went to the agency personally to confirm if it is indeed true that the helper will arrive in Singapore the next day and checked what time she should be at the agency to pick the helper up. They confirmed with my mum the details. The next day, another SMS came saying again the helper couldn’t come to Singapore because she was not ready or some stupid excuse! Anyway, by the 2nd time with similar excuses, I asked for a refund, of which they refused. I spoke to the apparent boss who was arrogant and even told me even if I were to go to small claim court, I won’t be able to get the refund since the contract covered them for such incidents and we should continue to just wait for the helper. The agency has up to 3 months to get the helper over to us and it hasn’t been 3 months!


Anyway, in the end, I didn’t get my helper from them and my money went down the drain! They could be making a business out of just cheating people of such money. It’s probably more profitable. Island Maid is definitely not a trustworthy maid agency, speaking from first hand experience.
