Domestic Helper Agencies

We have decided to use an agency to hire a helper as this will be our first time. Looking at the wedsite's etc. I found the Overseas Employment Center to look very professional and informative. Has anyone had experience using this agency or any others to give us some advice. Many Thanks.

Hey Kimmi, I heard all agencies are pretty much the same, seen complaints on all agencies but heard Overseas is the most expensive one. I personally think Sincere (SIA) is pretty good and they charge less as well. By the way, I have a couple of DHs I have interviewed recently I can pass their details onto you! I live in DB too.

Hi Tracey and Maggie,

I have PMed you both the list of DHs I have either interviewed or spoke to on the phone.

Such a shame some of them were not interested in us simply because we're Chinese!!! I did feel angry at first but then I do understand some Chinese employers are pretty picky. Plus I live in DB so makes it harder for us to find the right DH!!!

Sigh..... the search continues.......this is a full-time job I'm telling you all!!!!
