Part-time helper services in Singapore have a major legal fork — foreign part-time helpers must be deployed via MOM-licensed companies, while Singaporeans and PRs can be hired directly. Hiring a foreign freelancer directly from Carousell or Facebook groups is illegal and lands the homeowner with a S$5,000+ fine and 2-year hiring ban. Licensed company rates (S$18-25/hour) aren't much higher than grey-market, and the legal + insurance coverage is substantial.

No — foreign part-time helpers must be deployed via a MOM-licensed cleaning company. Direct hire from Carousell or WhatsApp groups is illegal. Penalty: S\$5,000-10,000 fine plus 2-year ban on hiring any domestic helpers. The penalty lands on the homeowner, not just the cleaner. Always use a licensed company.
Licensed company rates: S\$18-25/hour with 3-4 hour minimums. HDB 4-room 4-hour weekly session: S\$72-100. Condo (access protocols + larger spaces): S\$85-140. Landed 6-hour session: S\$120-220. One-off deep cleans S\$150-500. Rates below S\$15/hour almost always signal grey-market arrangements.
Licensed companies carry public liability insurance (S\$500k+ minimum is standard) covering accidental damage. Ask for policy number in writing. Freelance cleaners carry zero insurance — broken TV or scratched marble counter means you eat the cost. This is one of the strongest arguments for licensed arrangements over grey-market.
Licensed companies assign a regular helper but have trained substitutes for sick days or leave. "Booking middlemen" who send different cleaners every visit produce inconsistent quality because no one person knows your home's specifics. Ask specifically about substitution policy before booking.
Yes — most part-time cleaners handle combined scope. Add-on for ironing typically runs +S\$25-45 per session depending on load. Some arrangements split into two weekly slots (3-hour housekeeping, 2-hour ironing) at S\$130-200/week total. Specify scope upfront — "ironing included" with vague quantities leads to disputes.
