Thanks...
Hi mummies.
Talking about bonus, do u give and when? End of two yr contract or on yearly basis?
Thanks!
If i intend to only have a maid for 4-5months (confinement lady money saved to get a maid instead)For me, we are supp to pay her air ticket if she wish to go home end of 2 year contract. But if she choose not to go home, I will give her one month salary extra. You only need to pay for her airfare every 2years.
If you can just return her to the agent and said you want to change for another maid. The agent will take care of everything. Normally the transfer fee is zero for the first year.My maid was wif me since June'14 to Oct'14...n she requested to go hm coz miss family...n we r told by the maid agency that we hv to pay for her airtix even though she was the one who requested to go back...n i browse thru MOM webby that owner has to bear for her tpt fm s'pore to her origin...
Ya...we got free trf for 1 year but the thing is my maid dun want to work in s'pore...she wanna go hm so we hv to pay for her tpt back since we r her last employer b4 she goes back...unless if she still want to work in s'pore then we dun need to pay for her airtix...If you can just return her to the agent and said you want to change for another maid.

From my understand, the for the 21 days the maid will start with the agency. You might want to check with the agency. Personally, I think it is really luck in hiring maid, some new hires also got problem. The paperwork fees depends on the agency. I haven take in transfer maid yet@firstda for that 21 days she find new employer can i use her for that 21 days?
Thanks, but usually its hard to find right if i intend to transfer my maid. And if i take transferred maid usually most of the time have issues one right..? Any idea if i take transfer maid whats the paperwork fees like?
I see .She just worked in Singapore for 3months only? Who will be paying the remaining debt she owe to the agent?Ya...we got free trf for 1 year but the thing is my maid dun want to work in s'pore...she wanna go hm so we hv to pay for her tpt back since we r her last employer b4 she goes back...unless if she still want to work in s'pore then we dun need to pay for her airtix...
She has fully paid off her debt when she was wif us for the 2nd mth coz we r her 2nd employer n she worked for us for 5 mths...I see .She just worked in Singapore for 3months only? Who will be paying the remaining debt she owe to the agent?
Ok I see. Then no choice you have to pay for the air ticket. You can either buy the air ticket yourself or the agency buy. If you buy yourself, you can source for the promotional ticket. Not sure agency will help u or not.She has fully paid off her debt when she was wif us for the 2nd mth coz we r her 2nd employer n she worked for us for 5 mths...
Hee!!! We buy ourselves coz much cheaper...Ok I see. Then no choice you have to pay for the air ticket. You can either buy the air ticket yourself or the agency buy. If you buy yourself, you can source for the promotional ticket. Not sure agency will help u or not.
Sorry to tap here for my qn.
I am the 3rd employer for my maid in SG. She worked 3 months at first household, 1 week at second house and worked for me almost 4 months. Yesterday she did something seriously wrong again and got scolded. Then She told me she will work till April 2015 when loan is cleared then go back Indo.
Every time she is returned to agent for transfer, her salary will be forfeited by agent. So she worked for no pay for first 3.5 months in SG. Now think smarter, wanted to clear loan at my house then leave. (easy job at my home plus no one at home during daytime). If I keep her till feb/march, how will the loan work? Dun think it's a problem to find an employer settle for 1-2 months for balance loan. Works that way? Or the months she is with me, agent will forfeit the salary again.? Loan reset and she works for no salary for 8 months? Reli angry with her, trying to threaten me in her way..
Thanks
me too, am looking for maid agency to get indo maid.
My previous agent said that it is mandatory to give them a day off weekly. So cant compensate with $$$.
But, i would prefer to get 1 without day off or at most a day monthly.
Thanks
It's up to the maid too. Some prefer earn more $ n don't want off day. I just got a new maid thru an agency recommended by a friend. Nv make any trip to the agency. They will come n do all the interviews n paperwork at ur hm. Very convenient. And they reli do a good matching to find a maid that suits ur needs. quality of maids are good. Unlike those agencies in shopping centers, just want make $. Anything not gd about the maid, they will hide n say gd.
However they prefer to get in indo maids only. Let me know if u want the contact.
Hi, where did your mum got her maid from please - which agency?my mom's new maid , indonesian but chinese speaking . monthly salary is $560 with 1 off day
she just started 3 months ago
Their govt want "face". So don't want send their women out work as maids. So call will train them to be proper domestic helpers. Definitely will have Indo maids continue coming. Cos one mth salary here equates ard 10 mths salary back hm. Costs will be passed to employers. And these maids are smart, know we can't do without them n play punk.Hi all
I heard from my friend that there are no more Indon maid with effect from 1 Mar 2015.
Anybody knows?
Thanks
Hi mummy i am mother of 3. At first when my 3rd baby born i thought my in law or my mother will be soft hearted to help. But they did not. I have to take care of my baby all by myself. My first 2 my mother helped me. So i am consider not experience with baby. I do my own confinement and take care 3. My girl i finally let her go childcare when she was 2 years plus. I finally go look for a helper though i had bad experience before. I thought of infant care but its till 7 and costly. And my baby sleep sarong and has his own sleeping pattern. And he might fall sick easily like my daughter. And i need to go work to have more income. I finally got a helper through this agency i search online. And she helped me a lot. I am more relaxed and not so tired. So u can consider helper too.Hi all mummies,
