I had a live in maid from Vietnam in the States for a few years. I had a detailed to-do list and clear boundaries. From day one, she addressed me as Mr... and followed the checklist to the letter. Ten years after she moved on, we have remained friends, but she refuses to call me by my first name is still calls me Mr...Today, she is one of very few people that I would trust in my home, including my now x wife. I'm seriously considering her to be the executor/trustee of my estate. The bottom line is that if you establish clear boundaries, it makes everything better AND you may end up with a close friend for life.

Pay on demand instead of in advance. The minimum wage including benefits is U$360 a month in Manila. 1/3 of which is benefits and holiday pay. Kasambahay (live in) get 1/3 less for food and lodging. In other cities its 2/3 and in the province down to 1/2. Kasambahay law started at minimum wage equivalent but was not pegged to inflation. Never the less the going rate roughly follows it. There are 13 paid regular holidays. Those are already included in the numbers I gave.

If you do hire a full-time maid through an agency, you will be required to house and feed her as well as provide medical care and pay her, including payroll taxes and the agency fee. You will need a maids quarters or have a 2 bedroom 2 cr apartment which will also cost you more . For a single man, a part-time maid would be the best way to avoid the extra costs of a live-in maid . Also, have a safe or place for your valuable items as if you misplace your items, you won't have an awkward situation.

Omg..are you talking about maid or slave? Just for your knowledge, generally, a maid is treated like a distant relative, especially in the province. We have a maid growing up and we call her auntie. We learned when we turned 16 that she was not a relative at all. Our parents want us to respect her like our aunt. We even try to avoid using the word "maid" to introduce them to friends/relatives visiting. We introduce them as " kasambahay" which means house companion because "maid" is almost like calling them slaves. In a lot of instances too the maid is a real relative. Your rigid rules exist in the minority (for example: multi-millionaires or maybe some politicians). Just so you know too, even if we have maid, that does not mean we are just going to just sit and wait to be served. We still do chores. Not even the multi-millionaires expect their maid to do everything. They will have 3 or 4 maids with specific jobs, like one in charge of cooking, one for cleaning and laundry, etc.

I’d want one just for security reasons. I don’t think I’d feel safe living alone in the Philippines as a foreigner especially in the provinces. I don’t expect her to be a bodyguard obviously but I’m sure her presence may dissuade potential thieves/robbers.

Maid /wife same thing. Both cook and clean. Both have sex with you for a while, till they find someone younger or wealthier. Both will extract as much money as they can from you.

If you want a maid, get one that is old enough to be very good as cooking and cleaning! Do NOT confuse maid with possible girlfriend or low cost hooker. This is a very bad attitude and will lead you to all kinds of trouble. Don't be stupid.. The good maid and good GF are NOT the same person!

What's the problem with getting a two for one deal though? I see nothing wrong with paying for sex so long as it's legal and consensual. Also, nothing wrong with paying for cleaning. As long as both parties are open, honest, and consent is maintained why not?

@@harveypolanski755 I'm thinking you have not lived in the Philippines. Your 2 for 1 idea usually means she will will not do either one very well. How many hot babes are going to be good at cooking, cleaning and general housekeeping? Yes, you can buy sex, but you cannot buy love and respect.

We had maids in the Philippines, but having a maid is not necessary. My family is middle class. We do our own house work, she live with us. But some maids need friends with benefits.. Foreigners nowadays take advantage to our Filipina maids. The maids had no choice but to do what her employer want her to do, and pay is very low, that's why Filipinas go abroad work as OFW, domestic workers, The employers sometimes abuse the filipina workers. We do our own laundry by hands rich or poor. Foreign westerners think very low about us Filipinos. It's like a Slave master situation.

Bullllllsht Nobody is forcing them because that is R pe. Stop Lying No foreigner is risking Phillipines jail for no girl when they are easy to meet and Date. Stop lying Women are Not made to do what they Don't want to do Especially when everyone would believe a lying local over a foreigner Now? Do they get mad? When it doesn't work out? Can't get more than the arrangement? Yes. Forcing her against her will? Stop lying. That's dangerous As if the Pinay-Pinoy rumor - gossip don't make it around faster than real news

Slavery is forced labor without pay. If an employee is paid and free to leave they're not being exploited. It's better for Philippians to work for rich foreigners in the Philippines because if they're mistreated they can just go home. Google some of the stories about foreign maids in Dubai or Saudi Arabia. Not only are the maids mistreated in those countries; but the government aids in their oppression.

@@harveypolanski755 I knew, I have knowledge about this but it is not a big news if a foreigner abuse or take advantage to the girls in the Philippines because most of the maids are uneducated, and not literate, most of the Filipinas that goes abroad and overseas have some college degrees and have no choice because of Poverty, slavery in the U.S. is not allowed, I wish the Philippines will provide more decent and respectful jobs, employment and provide high income, Healthcare, housing, financial help and not do a labor of what a foreigner don't want to do, like washing clothes by hand, do dirty manual labor, I mean there are jobs that some Filipina can't qualify at least educate the Population. Colonization did this to our Country starting from Spain and U.S. we Filipinos were always the server, maids, laborer under class and other menial jobs for the foreigners. God Bless.

with all that big talking about your wants you're going to pay her that much? makes sense in the province but not for city lifestyle, especially for the outside errands you have her doing just to be back home asap to cook your meal and wash your underwear. 8k should be a starting point.

Unsolicited advice, there are a lot of good ones out there but there are bad ones too, so watch your belongings (discreetly of course). Treat them nice too But once you find a good one, then take care of them It’s much cheaper here vs other countries
