Hi Cynthia,
The photos are nice, I like the brother-and-son T-Shirt (the 1st picture). Zach likes Thomas so much, I am considering to go there.
Regarding the maid issue, I have just hire a Indonesia maid for my parent. She just has contract expired and I have tested it for 1 day. So far so good. I think you may consider to hire one in Hong Kong and you can request to have trial (you just have to pay HK$110 for 1 day). Once you are satisfied, you can consider to hire her.
