My case is same as you, my maid come to my house for 2 months la. She has the same problem as your maid, cannot look after my 2 years old son by herself, she do not know how to handle him. My son is spoiled by my mother-in-law, so his temper is bad, always cry or shout or bite her when she do not follow him. Now my mother-in-law stay at the house with them, the situation is even worse. Hopefully, my son will go to half day nursery next week and may sleep at the afternoon. Hope my maid can handle him by her own la.
Well, I think you really need to consider what the maid is for - looking after your son, doing housework or what.
I think your maid is still new to your family. Have u ever taught her how to handle your son? Something good is that your maid had so far not physically or verbally punished your son. You may need to talk to her to what extent she could do so. Also, you need to let your son know whether your maid could make him do anything.
My friend's recommendation is - do not let your maid punish your kids directly in whatever way. For your kid's safety, you may ask your maid to report to you your kid's wrong doings and then you carry out the punishment as appropriate. At least, your son knows your maid could do something about his wrong doings.
I have hire 5 maids within 2 years, like hinhinmummy said, there are classified as several type, my first maid is the 1st type, 2nd maid is the 3rd type, 3rd maid is 2nd type, 4th and the curre t maid is 4the type. My previous one is similar to this one, I hired her for 1.25 years, however, she turned bad after one year, borrow money, steal my things, too many phone calls ...she behave 80 in front of me and my mom but do nothing in front of my mother-in-law, hope this one is better la!!!
My new maid is also like yours but worse, not willing to play with my son, doesn't know how to cook and very bad memory... the worst is - bad English in listening and writing. She is Fillipino and college gradute. I don't know why her English standard is like a primary graduate. She always misunderstands even does not understand our instruction and never asks. As a result, mistake done. I decide to fry her and change another one.
My maid is the same as yours.
I am also thinking if she is what I want but
after reading hinhinmummy's comment
I agree sometimes we are to greedy.......
It's really hard for working moms.
If I have the choice, I would really want to be a full time mom to bring up my kids myself.
Every mom would like to give the best to our children.........
