      Hi I m also thinking of changing maids. Does anyone know how is the supply like now? Is it $500 for inexperience indo maid with 4 off days?


      Any employer facing prob with maids having 4 offdays? What kind of prob are u facing? Right now mine still under old contract but I give her 1 offday.

        From what I see online it’s $450 with weekly day off for new maids. Some with past experience also $450.

          I justice hired an ex-sin indo maid. Her salary is $480 per month. She doesn’t want off day so I need to compensate abt $18 x 4.

                  Thank U to Ms Halimah pro-maid policy, she has helped to increase singapore fertility rate too

                  It was exactly 8-9 mth after then new policy made effective that the baby was born/abandoned

                      The maid agency is Singapore Maid Hub Pte Ltd located at Katong Shopping Center. The agency fees I paid is slightly less than $1k after negotiation. I paid 8 months of maid's pay in advance.

                      I'm very happy with my current maid. Should not have hired a Filipino previously and put up with her for so long.
