Struggling to manage meals and household chores? In Singapore, hiring a part-time helper is a simple and flexible way to get help with both cooking and cleaning without needing a live-in helper or long-term contract.
What This Covers (Quick Summary)
- For families, seniors, and working couples
- Support includes simple meal assistance and light home cleaning
- Flexible sessions: ad-hoc or weekly part time maid services plans
- Islandwide service in Singapore: HDB, condo, landed homes
- Fully legal (no levy or work permit required)
Why does This Matter?
Not every household in Singapore wants or needs a live-in domestic helper. Many are choosing part-time support for a few key reasons:
- No levy or work permit required
- Saves cost and space in smaller homes
- Cleaner homes, better peace of mind
- Flexible scheduling to suit your lifestyle

Real Experience (Case Studies)
Toa Payoh (3-room HDB)
Mr. and Mrs. Tan both work full-time and need help preparing lunch and maintaining basic home cleanliness. We arranged for a helper to come 3 mornings a week. They now consider her part of the family.
Pasir Ris (Condo)
Ms. Liew’s elderly mother lives alone and needs support with light cooking and keeping the home clean. A soft-spoken helper was scheduled every Monday and Friday. It has made a huge difference to the family’s peace of mind.
