What country do you live in? I am in the UK and I know here there are agencies set up and you can employ someone from the agency, so they will be reliable and recommended. Then hopefully, you would not be let down. Good luck!

In some sense,because the emotion toward the person which is your housemaid, register to your subconscious mind that you badly need the said housemaid into your life..Your belief of having a housemaid is a necessity,which in your case, is true..seem to influence you.. Emotion that build through the long stay of a person into your house bind him to be one of the member of the family..Also,the peace of mind when she is around because you believe that she truly care for the family,there is trust..And it hard to give trust to people..And that could be the issue you are dealing.. Housemaid and you in this case in all instances should have a mutual relationship..fair and humane..To have a longer relationship together, except for the fact that is personal that the separation cannot be avoided. In finding for a trusted housemaid.. 1.Perform a background check of that person. 2.Don't relay on mere referral of a friend have a personal conversation with the person(housemaid)to know him personally. 3.Require her for NBI CLEARANCE AND BRGY CLEARANCE 4.For health safety,have him a medical certification. 5.at her first day, a)have an open communication with her,tell her what you want and what you don't want.Give her your rules. b)Orient her in all she needs to do. c)Observe her move at first. d)Be friendly and humane mingle with her and talk about her personal life and family.Know her by her words.. Trust will be build through time and by her performance.

We've had maids before when i was a kid. There was one that stayed with us for quite a while. My mom treated her nicely everytime. Even though me and my siblings were nothing but trouble to her she stayed with us. I think you just need to look for someone dedicated enough to do the work.
