      All I know is now experienced indon maid get snapped up easily because there are not many. If you find one experienced maid that u like better not take too long to confirm. If you are looking for new and inexperience maid, no worries. Alot to choose. Most of them use S’pore as training ground before they move to Taiwan or HK.

          I think your maid is normal.
          Boss not around, then more relaxed.
          At least you did not catch her doing any naughty things.

                  Hi,

                  I encountered about the same issue as micollh. Just saw my maid (been with us for a month) putting on nail polish. May I know if you allow ur maid to put on nail polish? I feel bad for telling her to remove it…

                    Does she prepare food? If so, tell her that nail polish not meant to be eaten. She will poison herself along with the family. But if you like, give her option to put on her day off. Women all like to be pretty.

                      Hi hquek,

                      Thanks for ur advise. Yes, she prepares food including feeding my girl. Silly me, never thot of this. I must find chance to explain to her. Her contract no off lei, no chance to even put on. (although she claimed she nothing to do, thus tried some nail polish) Now i must handle this matter with care, cos i am going for manicure later for cny. :razz:
