Any reliable and honest Maid agency

Anyone can help to input. Thanks in advance!

None are reliable to be honest...you get really good service when you first start asking for their help, they earn your fees and helper's fees, but usually after the contract ends or during the contract, they can't be bothered with your problems. Hv you tried finding one of your own, from referrals, contacts, relatives who are giving up their helpers? You can direct hire which saves you few thousand dollars.

I met and spoke with a number of agencies before finding one I felt I could work with. (White Glove). If you've been in singapore a while you will see plenty of expats that are leaving recommending their helpers and that is another route you can use.

Yes man! I believe maybe they're not familiar in the country. Anyway agencies wanna make money they just wanna get all their helpers out of the agency. If not everyday have to provide lodging and meals to the helpers! : P

Hi all,

Just wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations for FDW that may need a transfer? I see mainly the sentiment regarding agencies is not great - anyone have experience with White Glove or any other reliable ones?

Thanks!

Best way is to go down personally to each maid agency and pick the one that you think fits your need the most. I personally prefer filipino maids then indonesian as their english is alot better and make communication easier

Be careful of transfer helpers, sometimes they don't reveal the real reasons why they are being transfered out..

The only 2 maids we’ve had were transfers from Malaysia (and originally from East Java) and both turned out to be good. My wife is from Indonesia and noted that people from East Java tend to be nicer and more genuine, but of course you can’t bank on that… or assume people from other parts are not.

As far as agencies go, agree with the other comments — no agency can be considered good, just expect the worst when you approach any of them.

You've been having extreme good luck when it comes with transfer helpers.

Yes I was told by some Indonesian helpers about helpers from east and west java as well..and some areas if they come from to avoid...But their attitude do play a part, I do find those with super long experience > 10 years can turn out to be quite lazy.. of course not all, but most..
