Placement fees for a new-hire foreign domestic worker typically run S$1,500–3,500 through Singapore maid agencies; transfer helpers (already in Singapore on a valid Work Permit) are generally lower at S$500–1,500. On top of the placement fee, budget for the helper's monthly salary (S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience) and the monthly MOM levy — S$300 at the standard rate, or S$60 at the concessionary rate if your household has a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability. Confirm exactly what is bundled in Guardian Angel's package — mandatory FDW insurance (roughly S$300–600 per year), the Settling-In Programme, pre-placement medical examination, and Work Permit application — versus what is billed additionally.

Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold an MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence — this is a legal requirement, and the licence number should appear on the agency's website, all contracts, and invoices. No licence information has been provided in this listing, so it is essential to ask Guardian Angel for their EA Licence number and verify it directly on MOM's online EA directory before proceeding. EA Grading runs from A+ to C; agencies rated A+ or A have stronger compliance and complaint-handling track records. Engaging an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you without recourse if a placement goes wrong or the agency closes, and can void your helper's insurance. Verify the EA Licence number on MOM's online EA directory before paying any deposit, and read the agency contract's replacement, refund, and early-termination clauses.

A standard replacement guarantee from Singapore maid agencies typically covers a 6-month window from the helper's arrival date, with one or more replacements included within the package. It is important to clarify what circumstances are covered — a documented skills or temperament mismatch versus buyer's remorse — and whether additional replacements beyond the first incur a further fee. Also confirm the early-termination process should the placement break down outside the guarantee window. The household bears repatriation flight costs, unused MOM levy refund procedures, and Work Permit cancellation paperwork if the placement ends prematurely and is no longer covered. As no specific guarantee terms have been published for this listing, ask Guardian Angel to provide these details in writing before signing any agreement.
