About Jayamaids
Jayamaids is a maid agency based in Hougang, serving households islandwide. The listing is KakiList-verified and ACRA-registered, and holds a 4.9/5 rating across 227 Google reviews — a robust sample that indicates consistently positive client experience. No MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence is recorded in the listing data; parents and employers should confirm the agency's current EA Licence number directly with Jayamaids and cross-check it on MOM's online EA directory before proceeding.
When enquiring, ask Jayamaids to clarify whether you are recruiting a new-hire helper or a transfer helper, as placement fees differ substantially — new-hire placements typically run S$1,500–3,500, while transfer helpers are generally S$500–1,500. Confirm what is bundled into the fee: mandatory FDW insurance, the Settling-In Programme, medical examination, and Work Permit application paperwork. Monthly costs after placement include the helper's salary (S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience) and the MOM levy (S$300 standard, or S$60 concessionary if your household includes a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability). Source-country options typically include Indonesia, the Philippines, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka. Ask about the replacement guarantee window and what voids it.
Reach Jayamaids via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form on KakiList to confirm EA Licence status, current helper profiles, and placement fees before paying any deposit.

I had such a great experience with Ms. Cheralyn at Jayamaids (Hougang Green)! I was looking for a helper from Myanmar, and she made everything happen so quickly. Cheralyn is so bubbly and kind, which really took the stress out of the whole process. I was impressed by how fast she was—she followed up almost immediately to filter suitable profiles and arrange interviews. She made the process so easy that I was able to confirm a helper within just 2 days! She is super helpful and genuinely cares about finding the right fit for your family. She even got all the paperwork sorted without any fuss. I highly recommend her service! Thanks again for all your help!

It’s our first time hiring a maid, and Anna has been very forthcoming in helping us select someone who suits our needs. I can see that the maid respects her, and she seems capable of guiding and training the maid well, which gives us confidence. Compared to other agencies we spoke to, the culture here feels more positive. Anna is also clear and succinct in her communication. She makes us feel more comfortable and familiar when speaking with her. Overall, we feel assured and well-supported in this process.

I chose Jayamaids based on the existing excellent Google reviews and their positive rating on the MOM website. Nadia did an excellent job matching me with my helper. She understood my requirements and did careful filtering, not the kind of agent who would send a whole bunch of biodata that do not match your criteria. When there weren't suitable candidates, she was honest and told me she would update me if she has found a match. True enough, she remembered me and offered more choices. Eventually, she found the ideal candidate and we couldn't be happier. I will 101% recommend Nadia to anyone who is on this exhausting journey of finding a helper. She will make it smoother and easier for you. Her service is excellent and she is always a pleasure to talk to. It is also worthy to note that my helper said the agency was good to her. Thank you, Jayamaids!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Jayamaids charge?›
Placement fees at maid agencies typically run S$1,500–3,500 for a new-hire helper and S$500–1,500 for a transfer helper. Contact Jayamaids directly to confirm their current fee schedule, as pricing varies by source country and helper profile. Beyond the placement fee, budget for the helper's monthly salary (S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience) and the MOM levy (S$300 standard per month, or S$60 concessionary if your household qualifies). Confirm what is bundled into the placement fee — mandatory FDW insurance, the Settling-In Programme, medical exam, and Work Permit application are standard inclusions at most agencies but should be verified in writing. See the full maid agency cost guide for Singapore →
Is Jayamaids MOM-licensed?›
Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold a MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence, which is publicly verifiable by name or licence number on MOM's online EA directory. No EA Licence number is recorded in Jayamaids' current listing data, so you should ask Jayamaids for their licence number and verify it on the MOM directory before paying any deposit or signing a contract. The EA Grading system (A+ to C) reflects compliance history and complaint-handling standards — agencies rated A+ or A have stronger track records. Hiring through an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you with no recourse if a placement breaks down, and can void your FDW insurance. Jayamaids does hold a 4.9/5 rating across 227 Google reviews and is both KakiList-verified and ACRA-registered, which are positive signals, but EA Licence confirmation remains the essential step before proceeding.
What replacement guarantee does Jayamaids offer?›
Standard replacement guarantees at Singapore maid agencies typically cover a 6-month window from the helper's arrival date, with one or two free replacements included. Confirm with Jayamaids exactly how long the window runs, how many replacements are included, and what circumstances void the guarantee — for example, documented mismatch is usually covered, but requests driven purely by personal preference may not be. Also clarify the early-termination process. If a placement breaks down outside the guarantee window, the household bears the cost of the repatriation flight, Work Permit cancellation, and any unused levy refund processing. These costs can run S$1,000–2,000 and should be understood before signing. Get the replacement and early-termination terms in writing as part of the agency contract before committing.
