I am in a dilemma and really appreciate some advice.
I have an Indonesian maid whom has been with me for about 1.5 months and I have no complaint about her work & attitude. But, I don't have much for her to do (even with 3 young children) & I still cannot get used to having another person staying with me for extended period.
Of course she is not perfect, but she is willing to listen to feedback & strive to improve herself. Always ask for permission before doing anything. Pleasant girl & my children love her.
At times, she is so bored with her hp she keeps checking on me or my children to see whether there is anything to do, especially on weekends as I don't need her to do cleaning.
It's also very hard for me if I want to start training my children to be independent & start helping out or pick up their mess, she will always be more than happy to help them out, even if I repeatedly told her to let them do it. My youngest refuse to let her feed or bathe him, so it will still be me attending to him. 2 older kids are big enough to feed & shower themselves.
Is it possible to send her back to the agent based on this reason? I feel really bad as she has done no wrong so far.
Reason for employing her at the first place is due to my hubby being assigned overseas & he was worried that I am not able to cope. My children are very independent, their meals are pretty easy to prepare & my HDB flat is not very big. I have been getting a part time cleaner to help with the chores & that is good enough. I tried convincing him many time prior to that, but he can't see the point that it is really not necessary to get a helper.
