congrats veryberry..
handsome boy!
hi irin, nanabear. thks.
very tough now looking after 2. yangyang knows how to sayang didi, but i can also see some tension. Yangyang cries a lot more these days... and he seems more insecure - MUST see me around, doesnt allow me to go brush teeth, go toilet or out of his sight. it's very stressful for mummy here. sigh. I dont even carry baby - leave that to my mum and hubby...

mummies... hahaha... i just gave ayden some marcaroni in cod liver oil sauce using the spoon. he likes leh..
*beaming* will give him more of this tom..
Hhaha... mist,
1. Ask have they been a maid before
2. What they do the whole day in detail
3. Wat time they sleep and wake up
4. Willing to take no day off
5. Who is going to take care of theiir children if married with kids
6. Check if their parents are elderly cos they may go anytime cos i have one candidate her parents is already in their 80s and immediately we eliminate her cos we dun want the maid to leave before the contract ends when there is something happen at home
7. Handle newborn before
8. Willing to keep hair short
9. What are they good in eg cooking, taking care of children, general housework
10. What to do when baby cry
hahah... normally i ask such question. If I asked that much means that is potential one. Else normally i will stop halfway which means either i dun understand her english or she is lousy.

mist: many mummies will tell you it's really heng suay.. first you must like her face.. then check her biodata on her experience, and see if it is similar to what you intend for her to help you out with.. and if you choose an indo maid, when you speak to her, check that her english is at an acceptable level to you, else you will vomit blood trying to even communicate to her, let alone teach her to do tasks..
veryberry: u look great for a mommy who just give birth! jealous! didi looks abit like gor gor too.
mist: for indo maid, they dun take pork. i personally find it leychey, so this depend on urself. phil maid can speak english and able to teach our kids simple english. also see wat type of skills u need to maid to hv. eg, is ur priority to cook or look after baby or look after elderly

mist: agree with ash.. if you're going to have 1 maid, go for philly ones cos got much more advantage as we have young kids.. but beware.. some philly maids speak broken english..
mist,
the list of questions that Germaine provided is useful. hmm, finding a good agency will help a lot as many of these questions would have been asked by the agent already (useful if u have no experience). i went to an agency where they showed me videos of the interviews of the maids. some agency can even let you do live-video-conferencing whereby you can interview the maid that way.
I shortlisted mine through video, and then followed with telephone interview, where i asked her some personal questions. Personal questions a bit like what Germaine posted (who will take care of your kid, your family allow you to be maid, you will be away for 2years, you can? etc.)
the video-interview by the agency asked the 'standard' questions already. and the standard questions are quite tough. they ask things like:
1. How many minutes will u take to clean a bathroom? or the house (3 bedroom, 2 toilets etc)
2. If your mam and ah-ma (MIL) give you conflicting instructions, who will you listen to?
3. If you are feeding baby and the bigger child cry, how will you handle, what will you do?
4. If your mam scold you, what will you do? Will you answer back? Will you cry? Will you say sorry etc..
Well, again, the 'standard' questions may not really be a 'standard' as not all agencies interview their maids that way. So I really think you might want to shop around.. to find out how the agency select their maids. I feel that is very impt. A good agent cannot give you any guarantee, BUT at least can weed out the really bad ones.

wah autumn, the question u post is tough manz. I dun even know what should be the answer. hahaha...
So far all the maid interview are through video conference. My stupid hb will give a lot of comment, like wah so big size.. wah the face so long.. how come got such a big mole.

Veryberry,
Yang Yang looks so handsome!
it's natural he will feel a bit insecure. EJ is now starting to be a bit insecure too. Initially he is totally ok, and I guess it's because last time, he still too young (cos his age gap closer to mei-mei).. so he doesn't really know how to feel insecure or jealous.
Now, when I carry EV (when sitting on the sofa), he will also come and climb onto me and lean/lie on me.. so I have to carry both of them at the same time. But at least he is NOT to the extent of cry or beat EV or pull EV away.. so I think he just wants some assurance from me.. that while i carry mei-mei, i still carry/love him etc.
You will cope well.. no worries!

germaine,
those questions are from the agency-interview-videos. I was so impressed when i first saw the videos.. and i found the questions very tough! but i suspect, they ask so tough questions is also to gauge their reaction and answers.. like how, even when we go for interviews for jobs, the interviewers may ask very difficult questions, not to know the answers but to see how fast we can react and answer..
