I wouldn't. A younger helper will be inexperienced and the Indonesian helpers don't speak good English. You'll probably need to micro-manage her which will be difficult as you're working.

My mom had an Indonesian helper and she adored D but communicating with her was too stressful. My niece spoke Bahasa and would translate for my mom.
