“Good help is hard to find.” Anonymous

…but not impossible…

At Maid For You, we believe the process of hiring and managing domestic help can be simple, even pleasant. Our approach to finding the best person to work in your home is much like match-making. And with the right help finding the right help, life can be so easy.

So where do we start?

During the free initial consultation, we meet with clients to assess their environment and lifestyle – everything from household routines to children’s needs and so much more. This information allows us to better target potential Domestic Help candidates.

We will cover the following: legalities, criteria, training, the interview process, and any questions you may have. What follows is a selection of service packages tailored to your needs.

What will all of this cost?

Our consulting fees begin at 5,900HKD, similar to most local agencies, and yet so different.

Or find your helper yourself by accessing the unlimited amount of profiles on our sister company – online database,  Fairmaid.com.hk- for as little as $100 HKD!


TRAINING

Not all helpers are created equal and every employer has unique needs. This is particularly true of Expatriate families living in Asia. Specific needs require specialized training.

annerlyMaid For You has teamed up with Annerley, because we strongly believe that their individualized approach to training equips the ideal candidate with the best skills set to meet the exact needs of your household.

Training costs are supplementary to consulting fees. We’re sure you’ll agree, investing in training always pays off.

Peace of mind comes with knowing that your helper is confident and knowledgeable, and that she cares for your baby in the way in which you prefer. Annerley’s courses are based on strategies and guidelines devised by Annerley’s very own team of healthcare professionals and endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF.

Helpers leave feeling confident in assuming their new responsibilities, and that means mothers can go off to work, or out to meet friends, safe in the knowledge that her baby is in good hands.
