Can someone recommend a reputable and reasonably priced agency who can help with the paper work in bringing over our helper from Hong Kong?

I used the below. Heavy Singlish accent tho and explanations will be given in singlish sentences... but very efficient in all the paperwork and processes.
Had to point out certain things to them like when they told me a delay (a week) to get one helper over due to lack of flights I said I was on Jetstar website so there shd be no problems (she arrived in 2 days, instead of 7) and they wanted me to collect the passport from Yishun, I said that they will have to figure a way to bring it to town or I won't use them for the second maid application (they then said ok you can pick up fm the orchard branch).
