Find a Filipino helper for your Singapore household

Browse Apex’s Filipino helper biodata on SearchMaid (opens in a new tab). A published profile is a starting point: ask Apex to confirm the candidate’s current availability and hiring route before making plans.

Ask for a Filipino helper shortlist

Include your main duties, the language used at home and preferred start date. Apex normally provides video interviews, and the biodata records previous work experience. Use both to discuss the role before choosing.

Hiring a helper from the Philippines

Looking for a Filipino maid, a Filipina helper or a domestic helper from the Philippines? Apex handles these enquiries through the same Philippines placement service for Singapore households. Browse the linked Filipino biodata, then ask us to confirm availability and discuss the individual candidate’s experience in a video interview.

Match the shortlist to the work at home

For a Filipino helper, ask her to talk through previous care or household responsibilities in her own words. Compare the ages cared for, household size and routine with your home; language and experience remain individual. The helper interview checklist gives practical questions to use during the conversation.

What kind of Filipino helper are you looking for?

The useful starting point is the role, not the nationality. Tell us whether the priority is infant or child care, elderly care, cooking, housekeeping or a realistic combination. We then check the current Filipino candidate pool against those duties.

Depending on availability, the route may be a first-time helper, an ex-Singapore helper with previous local employment or a transfer helper already in Singapore. A current third-party listing may help you discover a profile, but availability and fit must still be confirmed before an interview.

What to compare in the shortlist

Use the interview to test the evidence

A biodata sheet is a starting point. Ask the candidate to describe a normal day in her previous household. For child care, ask what she did when a child was sick and how she handled meals, school and bedtime. For elderly care, ask about mobility assistance, medication routines, appointments and night needs. Follow-up questions show whether an answer comes from real experience.

If she has worked in Singapore, ask for the unedited MOM employment history and discuss every placement. A long placement can be useful evidence, but it still needs to match the work required in your home.

MOM eligibility and the hiring route

The Philippines is an approved source country for migrant domestic workers under the Ministry of Manpower's current rules. Each candidate must also meet MOM's age, education and other Work Permit requirements. The current conditions are published on the MOM eligibility page.

The documentation and deployment steps depend on whether the helper is overseas, returning to Singapore or transferring locally. After you choose, we handle the Singapore Work Permit process and explain which overseas documents, insurance, security bond, medical and arrival steps apply to that candidate. Read the full hiring sequence.

Costs, salary and timing

These depend on the candidate's experience, current hiring route, travel and processing requirements. We provide the itemised figures and expected timeline for the actual candidate before you commit. See the cost guide for the difference between government-set charges and amounts that vary.

Communication must be tested in the interview. Nationality alone does not prove language level, care experience or household fit.
