Doreen did a great job to help us employ a very suitable Helper for my 92 years old father. Very professional and detailed to our requirements.
I had been searching for months for a replacement helper as my current helper have expressed interest to return home. Among various agents I have lined up with, Nadia is the only one who truly understood my needs. I am very satisfied with the services provided by Nadia. It was during the Circuit Breaker period when we decide to get a new helper. With her recommendation and her experience, we managed to get a reliable domestic helper for my family, Ani Fatmawati is very hardworking and has good positive attitude who is adjusting well to our needs and she gets along well with my children too. I am very grateful. Thank you Nadia & Recruitbee! Definitely will recommend you to family and friends.
“Would like to start of by saying that working with Ms Nikki Thio for help in hiring our new helper has been really amazing. She was helpful and patient as our process took a little longer than expected. Highly recommended and I would definitely use her services and this company again. Thank you so much! We really appreciate everything.”
“I chanced upon an advertisement on the available helpers and contacted Recruitbee. Renie whatsapped enquiring on my requirements and we spoke over the phone to let her know that I’m looking for someone who is hardworking, polite, honest and love children.
Had a very bad experience from another agency. So I shared my previous experiences with Renie. And she being a mother herself totally understood my needs.
She gave me a few biodatas to choose from and we had a few videocall interviews all within a week or two before I confirmed my current helper. Renie helped shortlist the helpers that were suitable for the job and she was never pushy, instead very accommodating. The process was very smooth and professional. Everything was documented (requirements, arrangements etc)
We are very happy with our helper. She’s exactly what we expected. She gets along with everyone in the family. Their service is worth every cent we paid for. Renie is very genuine and professional. I had a very good experience engaging them. No regrets!”
“Great Service! Highly Recommended! Recruitbee personnel have been very supportive and helpful in choosing a helper for us! Great follow up too!!”
“Recruitbee is one of the best agency that u have encounter (we have been to many maid agencies!). Tilia is very caring and attentive and most important listen to what you needs.. highly recommended”
“We are very pleased and satisfied with the service rendered by Renie. Renie is a knowledgeable staff and efficient in her work. She is very helpful and prompt in replying messages and providing information.”
“I would like to thank Renie Chua from Recruitbee (Kovan) for her thoughtfulness, responsible and patient towards us. Thanks for the Mid-Autumn Festival Mooncake from Recruitbee! Much appreciates and you’ve made our day!”
“Through friend’s recommendation, I approached Renie of Recruitbee Employment in August 2020 for a Helper. Renie was able to provide me with a good selection of biodata quickly as they have their own training centre in Myanmar, thus she was able to screen their pool of helpers to meet my needs. Due to Covid-19 pandemic, my application was rejected by MOM despite many appeals. All this time, Renie’s helpful and responsive attitude really helped to ease my anxiety and stress. Although I eventually engaged a transfer helper from another agency, I wish to thank Renie for being patient, sincere and not pushy. Rene also went beyond her call of duty to speak with my sister to clarify some immigration issues she had for her helper (not from Recruitbee) during her off day. Indeed a very pleasant experience overall. I will not hesitate to recommend Renie to those who want to hire a Helper.”
“I am very satisfied with the services provided by Recruitbee especially Nadia. It was during the Circuit Breaker period when my husband and I decide to get a helper for our newborn. As this is our first time engaging a helper, Nadia made the process smooth even though there are so many restrictions due to COVID between SG & Indo. She was very helpful and she replies promptly to my inquiries. With her recommendation and her experience, we managed to get a reliable domestic helper for my family, Siti. Siti is very hardworking and has good initiative. She gets along well with my children too. I am very grateful. Thank you Nadia & Recruitbee! Definitely will recommend you to family and friends. To more successful years ahead.”
“Renie is very helpful, patience and professional. She understood our needs and shortlisted the suitable helpers that meet our constrain criteria. Thank you Renie and team of Recruitbee.”
“I was at my desperate moment to find a suitable helper after my helper of 2 years decided not to come back to Singapore after taking her home leave. Since then my agency was not able to help me find another suitable helper. When I saw this newly opened agency, I decided to try my luck. I am very pleased with the services provided to me, especially your staff, Ms Renie. Renie is not only professional, she is very responsive and helpful. She has never fail to provide me her professional advices and she managed to help me find my current Myanmar helper. I am very happy with my helper, thanks to Renie!”
“I had been searching for months for a replacement helper as my current helper have expressed interest to return home. Among various agents I have lined up with, Nadia is the only one who truly understood my needs and diligently and relentlessly searched for me a helper. She was not at all pushy nor did she give up on me. She went all out to find an Ex-Singapore maid and I’m so happy that after months of waiting we finally got a helper who is really of good quality and positive attitude who is adjusting well to our needs. Big thank you to Nadia for her hardwork and assistance and tight follow through to advice me at every step.”
“Great helpful and very friendly staff! Admire their patience in willing to listen to my requirements and worries. So far I don’t have any problem with the maid, so happy that all work out well! Would definitely recommend you to my friends.”
“Our family would like to thanks Renie for her proactive help and professionalism, really appreciate your patience and understanding! Our helper, Ailyn was selected based on her recommendation and she has been a great fit for us. Most importantly, Ailyn loves and dote our precious husky. Good job, Renie and thank you once again!”

How do I calculate my Helpers pay in-lieu of a weekly rest day?
You are strongly encouraged to provide your Helper with weekly rest days as it provides her with a physical, emotional, and mental break from work. This helps to improve your Helpers productivity at work.
However, if you and your Helper mutually agree for her to work on her rest day, you must pay her at least 1 day’s salary for each rest day she does not take, on top of her monthly salary.
Note: 1 day’s salary can be calculated by dividing her monthly salary by 26 working days, as there are typically 4 weeks and therefore 4 rest days in a month.

I am an Helper who has employment issues. Who can I call?
You can:
– Call the Police at 999 if you are in danger.
– Call the Helper Helpline at 1800 339 5505 to speak to an MOM officer.
