Now, Most of family use maid and babysitter… What a problem is Many of them find maid and babysitter from Yayasan. My experience is most of this Yayasan is not qualify and liar. When we took one babysitter sometime they told us had many experience but when they already at our home. They can't make milk (Right/standart) and don't know how to handle new born baby, worse is night time they sleep tight and can't wakeup for feeding baby, even they told no problem in begin. Some time the yayasan chief told them to lie about experience. For increase salary. Maid also they told us had experience but can't use LPG Burner, Don't know how to clean floor, etc.. funny…  Worse again we got thief at our house… can stole anything, food,clothes etc….

I don't have any idea where i can find the right person to be maid or babysitter. Anybody can helping me? thanks

I just got maid from neightbour, she is mrs F, already 50 years up almost same ages with my mom, Mrs F, told want to help Us find maid or Babysitter from Surabaya. Because she already old, and live nearby us so I try to believe her. When We asking her, she said that she doesn't Yayasan just helping me. But she want me to prepaid paying for travel and yayasan fee all in 550.000 rupiah. She said that had candidate babysitter who care her mother now. 24 years old, she said good worker, etc… I pay on thuesday… and she promise me will sent this babysitter ASAP. monday or tuesday will arrieve in jakarta. But what happen next is doesn't same in monday she said babysitter will arrive at tuesday noon. She said this gal 26 years old and already divorse also little bit fat. (She change this person and never notice me before) At tuesday she said this person will arrive at wed noon, i asking why need so long? she said she take cheap travel from surabaya to semarang and then semarang to jakarta so need 2 days. She is big liar. How come should be like that, I was grow up in surabaya, I know take a bus only one night. Even Train….etc… I told her is she can't supply this maid/babysitter she must refund my money… she said how about travel fee she already paid….she told me to patient more one day. Ok i do that. at wed noon… she take tihs maid to my house. This person little bit fat and what a strange is she didn't take any clothes. She said she came from Sidoarjo who had lapindo and make her din't have anything, include clothes… she said was working in surabaya about  10 month to takecare kid, how come didn't have any clothes… but she had handphone. She said all her money she sent to her sister who take care her kid. Because her husband was die or divorse i didnt know clearly. Today i hear phone was ring and she answer but not use javanese languange… no acsent att all.. so strange…. I hear is sundanese languange. I told my mom for asking her, what answer from her so strange she said had sick… maag,tooth,etc, she was accident when lapindo happen and burn her hand but i see her hand is normally. She said when her kids already didn't have mom so can't speak javanese. I told my mom asking her ID (KTP) but she said don't have still in process. I see her tummy very big like pragnant woman, my mom agree too. Asking her, she said she already had big tummy since single???? I think this person so strange and i can't believe her, even i give clothes for her to change. I asking my sister in surabaya. Lapindo was happen 2 years ago. She was had maid also said from sidoarjo and accident by lapindo, She only take one plastic bag clothes(Better then mine) 1 weeks work in the morning this maid run away from my sister house. Fortunelly nothing missing. She said better not use this kind maid… Because I had kids and if her take my 1,5 years kids to run away, i dont want this happen. Strange but is real………….

Any Opinion/Sugestion, what should I do? Thanks

Heh! Heh!. one of the things new immigrants to developed countries from south east asia missed most are maids. Some even brought maids with them to help out in the household chores and restaurant work.

Most good and proper indonesian maids have gone overseas.

maybe there should be a maid joining fee, like what banks offer to newly appointed employees.

never pay unlicensed agents any advance. Go to a proper maid agency. I think their commission is two/three months of maid's salary, which is deducted from the maid's pay. Poor maid will have no pay for three months and many wonder why their household are robbed. How are they going to take care of their family for no pay?
