Hiring a domestic helper in Singapore starts with clarity on the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) process. Shortlist biodata, confirm the agency licence number, and request a signed Letter of Offer that matches the helper’s salary and rest day preferences. Prepare your income documents for the work permit application, buy the correct insurance and security bond, and schedule Settling-In Programme slots early to avoid delays. Once the In-Principle Approval is issued, share a written job scope that covers childcare, eldercare, and housekeeping priorities so expectations stay aligned from day one.
