1) at the beginning, be strict but not mean
2) don't push her to do all the housework at the beginning but let her know she has to do more and more slowly
3) watch after her when she is doing housework. if her way is acceptbale, i will not force her to do in my way.
4) when she has done something wrong or strange, try to understand first. then explain your reason
5) let her know that you are the boss but don't treat her like a slave
many many you can do. however, it really depends if you can communicate with her, ie, if her english or cantonese is good enough. otherwise, it will be a big trouble.
Thanks very much, I am really worrying, so many bad experiences i can seen here, but I also want her to work happily and healthy with me. I do not have kids, just 2 dogs, just want her to treat my dogs good.
Thanks veyr much for your advice, but I do not have rules & timetable. Shall I need to make it now or if the agent will help?

Too bad that I 've just found this web site 2 days ago, otherwise, i can ask more before decide to employ a maid. Thanks
