Hiring a domestic helper is a big step for many families, and at Ministry of Helpers, we totally get that! We believe that support shouldn’t stop once the hiring process is complete. Our commitment extends far beyond recruitment—we’re here to create a positive working environment for both employers and helpers. Let’s dive into the after-hiring benefits that we offer!
1. Continuous training and skill development
We know that a well-trained domestic helper is key to a happy household. That’s why we provide ongoing training programs tailored specifically to the needs of helpers and their employers. We’ve teamed up with StepUp to offer online training, covering everything from cooking and childcare to household management and safety protocols.
But that’s not all! We also host specialised workshops focusing on unique skills. For instance, we’ve partnered with Kids Actually to offer special classes for babysitters and nannies in Singapore. Whether your helper needs to brush up on their cooking skills or learn new childcare techniques, we’ve got them covered.
2. Regular check-ins and support
At Ministry of Helpers, we believe strong relationships are crucial. We conduct regular check-ins to ensure any issues or concerns are addressed promptly. Our dedicated support team is always ready to provide guidance, answer questions, and facilitate open communication between employers and helpers.
We know misunderstandings can happen, and that’s why we have trained mediators available to help resolve any conflicts. Our goal is to ensure a respectful and amicable environment for everyone involved. Open dialogue is our priority, helping both parties find common ground and keep the relationship positive.
3. Access to resources and information
We offer guides, blogs, and best practices on household management and legal regulations—all aimed at maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
And here’s a handy tool: our household scheduler! This feature allows employers to easily designate tasks for their helpers, keeping everyone on the same page. Plus, our app makes communication more convenient than ever, helping helpers stay aware of their responsibilities.
4. Community building and networking
We understand that being a domestic helper can sometimes feel isolating. That’s why we focus on building a supportive community! Through our forums, we encourage helpers to connect with one another, share their experiences, and offer mutual support.
We also organise online seminars for helpers, creating a space for them to share challenges and solutions. These events help families connect and learn from each other, building a network of responsible employers and helpers who support one another.
5. Feedback and improvement
Your voice matters to us! We regularly hold feedback sessions to understand the experiences of both employers and helpers. By listening to your needs and concerns, we can continually enhance our services and improve the experience for everyone involved.
The insights we gather help us refine our training programs, support services, and community initiatives. Our commitment to improvement ensures that we adapt to the ever-changing needs of our clients, making sure everyone feels supported.
If you’ve recently hired a domestic helper or are thinking about it, we invite you to explore the benefits we offer. Together, we can create a harmonious home environment that promotes growth, respect, and understanding.
