When my helper ran away, I also employed a poor part-time HK helper. As no contract is signed, just used for 5 days. She said she just passed the exam for 陪月 & waiting for the certificate, so can help me for 1-2 months before new overseas helper come. As she is 50+ and avaliable from 8:xx to 18:00, I hired her to take care of my 3 little kids (my mother or I was at home). However, she was always late to send my daugther to school => my husband did it. Not know how to prepare milk (waste a lot on the table). Just sit on sofa and pass her mobile to the baby for play (has radiation!). I think she don't know how to wash & steam bottles as she damage a new ChuChu brush just for 3 days (I know it after she left.
So I also want to have a backlist for local helper, especially for 陪月. It's more safe to employ 陪月 refer by other mothers (has good rating).
