Hiccup:

Aiyoh, you frighten me now. She is 31 years old this March 2011. She can speak Cantonese, Chinese, English.


I am hoping that she will be good. She did asked whether she can have a handphone later on and also off-day. Agent told her no.

Just because I had a bad experience doesn't mean you will too. Good luck!

Not anymore I think. The MOM stuff (work permit, health check) you can do on your own but not the Phillippine travel documentation, as the Phillippine embassy has tightened its controls. The embassy will not deal directly with employers whose maids are less than 2 years with them; it will only deal with accredited agencies. Employers can deal directly with the embassy only if their workers have been with them two years at least.

My agency is Loyal Employment Agency at Hougang Green. Maybe I am lucky that the maid was there waiting for new employers. She asked to be transferred as she was made to clean 3 places, ie, her employer's property plus his mom and sister's flats. I normally keep clear of transfer maids, but no choice cos need one to help out during CNY.

My agent mentioned to me before she was looking for filipino maids but hard to find nowadays. She handled paper work for my direct-hire filipino maids before and is quite a responsible person. If you are interested, you can pm me and i'll send you her contact details

I am not really sure. If i am not wrong, she is abt 30+ with a child 11 years old. As i posted previouly, i am very happy to get my new maid in. I hope her sister will have the same good attitude as her. BTW, my new maid also does not have experience, 1st time working but she catch up very fast. So far, I got no problem with her.
