I have a similar experience. Some of my-in-laws do not like my maid (however, we ranked her ok and she loves my son very much). So, when contract expired, we got a new one. The new one was so terrible, misused and broken a lot of things, more important was that she hurt my son (a four years old boy and finally went into the hospital). At last, we were not able to tolerate, we terminated her and asked the old one to come back to work for us (we decided to ignore all-in-laws). With these changes, not only that there were physically damaged to my belongings, my son, we also used up all our vacations and have to pay an extra $10,000 if we have not changed our maid...
So, think, think and think very carefully. A new one may not be good. A new new one may even worse. How many maids can you afford to change in order to get a good one ? If you have luck, time and money, you may try. I will never do that from my experiance.
If you problem to convince your second half, PM me and let me talk to him
I also have the exactly same problem with yours. My maid is a Philipino. I used her for more than 1.2 year. The main problem is that she has trouble to get along with my mother who is a very strict and fussy person. At the beginning, we tolerate the maid because she can take care of my child and do the household. Her advantage is cleaver and fast and make sense. Disadvantage is that she is NOT SELF-DISCIPLINE, lazy, not respect to us/my mother and make lot of phone calls. My mother hate her very very much and keep complianing during the year. She always asked me to fire the maid eventhough I warned thousand of times the risk of getting a new maid. However, she still not understand.
Now I decided to change my maid as her performance is worse than before and exceed my bottom line. My point is , this is my first maid which I don't know how to set rules and I want to settle my mother (as she made me headache every conversation). So now, I'm not in rush , but I will keep looking for a good maid . I think it depends whether you have time to look for a new one. Of course there is a risk, but if you choose carefully, it can reduce the risk. I interview carefully with the new maid who is finished contract and have good recommendation from previous employer. It's not easy, I met over 15 maid who still cannot meet my requirement. There is almost one candidate who is ok but she is immediately hired by another employer. But doesn't matter, if we have patient and time, I wil keep looking for a good one. At the end, it still depends on your LUCK.
Ask your helper to sign two letters 1) warning letter 2) one month notice; and tell her if her performance could not meet your standard then she would be fired.
Secondly, does she need to sign for her leave day? If not, prepare a leave day sheet and marked down the date that you had given her the day off and asked her to sign (remember to write down 1 day for a week) You better ask someone to translate the english works into indonesia charactors. So, she could not make an excuse for "I don't understand". After you prepare everything, if your agent do not help you, you still has a better chance to win (I mean if your helper makes a complaint to labour dept.).
