Indon maids - not very detailed in cleaning and suka suka. I'm a hygiene freak cos of young kids so I can't tahan lor. Cannot tell them sala one, else will cry big time & boycott when not happy. sometimes duno how to please them.

sounds true for my maid except she still haven't boycott yet. haha.
she can be quite forgetful.

btw, do you scold your maids? raise voice? till now, i haven't scold/raise voice @ her. scoldings are \"given freely\" by mil. :lol: i usually tell her nicely, sometimes i simply shoot her when im in bad mood.

& oh, how to set a time for her to return home on her off days? seems like she always has an excuse to return home later than the specified time, the latest 45mins.
also, how many off days does your maids have? 1 month once?

thanks all!

I've encountered ones whereby they kinda rush you thru bios... or my current maid's agent, who is useless in telling my maid to wake up and buck up... he simply didnt care since its a done deal already! blacklisted this agency ever since!

If you want a maid agency that is very pro-employer, try NATIONS. I got my 2 Indo. maids from there and so far OK, no need to change!

I have witness a few times the scoldings they will get if employer complain or bring them back to the agency. The scoldings were TERRIBLE. And they will help you to change maids. Also couple of times I was desperate to get maid but if their transfer maids were no good ie. stealing, very bad attitude problems etc...they refuse to transfer to me no matter how urgent I told them I needed a maid.

That is if you don't mind paying new maids SGD450 and also agency fees not the cheapest around. You can go search NATIONS website for the bios and then call them up if you are interested.

As for training, it is best not to take brand new maids, go for experienced maid so you don't need to do much training. Experienced maid means got to pay more though....

All the best!

Thanks! I will check them out... although I faintly recall that my hub said his fren had a bad experience with them... nonetheless, I'm keeping my options open... if the profile that they have happen to be good, that is good enough already! Interviewed 2 candidates yday, and both can't converse in english... not even basic... haizzzz

Hies … i would also like recommendation or feedback on employing a Indonesian helper… Plus are there agencies which accept post-dated cheques… most agencies whom i contact seem to have done away with tht practice and require clients to use their credit cards… which i do not have… any idea abt agencies who are ok with pd cheques…?

Hi all,

My maid is going off at the end of Sep 2011. She used to be working for my mil and was transferred to me when my boy was born. Hence, I don’t have any experience in looking for a maid from a maid agency. As I stayed in Simei, I am looking for a maid agency in singapore (for convenience) to find a new maid. If anyone has positive experience in any maid agency in the east, please let me know. Thanks.
