Full-time Housemaid
Some homes need more than a couple of hours of help each day. A full-time housemaid works a full daily schedule and can take on a broader range of household responsibilities. Flourrish helps you define that role and meet suitable candidates.
- Available across Chennai
- Can be arranged remotely
About this service
A full-time housemaid is typically present for most of the day, six days a week or as agreed, and in some households lives in. Duties commonly include cleaning, washing and drying clothes, ironing, washing vessels, helping in the kitchen, keeping the home tidy and being available when deliveries or service technicians arrive. Some families also look for help with keeping an eye on an elderly parent or supporting a parent with young children, though specialised caregiving is a different role.
This arrangement tends to suit larger homes, villas, families with both parents working long hours, and households where an elderly member is at home alone during the day. Because a full-time housemaid becomes part of daily family life, getting the fit right matters: language, temperament, cooking habits and comfort around children or pets are all worth discussing. If accommodation is to be provided, the household should be clear about what is offered.
Flourrish helps you put together a clear description of duties and hours, sources and shortlists candidates, and arranges interviews. We recommend completing ID and address verification before the start date and can help coordinate it, without guaranteeing its outcome. Salary, weekly off, leave and accommodation terms should be agreed directly between you and the housemaid, ideally in writing, so both sides know what to expect.

Frequently asked questions
Is a full-time housemaid always live-in?
No. Some full-time housemaids live in, while many work long daily hours and return home each evening. We help you decide which arrangement suits your home.
What salary should I offer?
Flourrish does not set salaries. Wages depend on duties, hours and whether accommodation is provided, and should be agreed directly between you and the housemaid.
Can a full-time housemaid also care for an elderly parent?
A housemaid can help with general support such as company and reminders, but medical or personal care needs a trained caregiver. Please mention this so we can set realistic expectations.
What if the housemaid leaves after a few weeks?
Let us know and we can help you look for a replacement through our replacement assistance service. Any specific terms will be explained before we begin.
