Published: Aug 12, 2022

Domestic workers form an essential part of urban life and are usually employed in almost all the homes nowadays. Whereas some families could afford to maintain a full time maid who normally takes care of all the usual chores like cooking and cleaning while others hire maids for specialized jobs like only cooking or babysitting. We at PostLo.com did research on the cost of hiring a house maid and its variation between different trades and type of city (metropolitan vs small).

The Domestic help services can be divided into many grounds:

Whether the maid is a full time or a partial helper.

If the maid is a regular helper as an employee or is working on a day basis.

Some of the maids are hired on an event basis like move out cleaning etc. They charge normally on a per day or per hours basis depending on the time it takes to complete the job.
