Hi hi...I am looking for a part-time maid to do cleaning twice a week. I am staying at Woodlands. Anyone has good maids or agencies to recommend? I am willing to pay $12-$15/hour.

Hi, looking for part-time maid on Sunday morning, Bishan area. Any recommendation???

Hi everyone,


I am considering getting a PT helper once the contract for my current FT helper ends. HR-issues with a live-in maid apart, the cost savings from using a PT helper will very much depend on how much work the PT helper can achieve on a 4-hour a week basis…or if not, and she has to come in twice a week.

I have 3 kids below the age of 6, so it’s a fairly insane volume of laundry plus ironing on top of the regular cleaning of the flat.

Is 4-hours a week reasonable for a household of 5? How much can she really accomplish?

Grateful to hear your views and thoughts/experience on this.

Many thanks in advance!!

4 hours many not be enough. I have a family of 4 including myself, 2 DS and DH. Piles of clothes have to be ironed everyday. I cannot do without a helper. So to me I dont think 4 hours is enough

Thanks, Adoncia. I suspect so too.

4 hrs a week is definitely not enough if you expect her to do all the housework.

If you engage a part-timer for 4 hr p wk, you/ your Mrs/ kids will have to be part-time maids too. i.e. do some of the housework.
eg for a family of 5, just the ironing alone will take more than 4 hr p wk, especially if you want all clothing, beddings etc to be ironed.

Thanks, POA Teacher. Either that or accept a less tidy home!

It just might make better sense to work with a full-time domestic helper living in house after all...
