About this service
Part-time help is the most common household arrangement in Chennai apartments. A part-time housemaid comes in at an agreed time, often once or twice a day, completes specific tasks and moves on, frequently to other homes in the same building or neighbourhood. Typical duties include sweeping and mopping, washing vessels, washing or folding clothes, and dusting. The arrangement is task-based, so being clear about exactly what is expected is important.
This arrangement suits smaller flats, couples and single professionals, elderly residents who manage most things themselves, and families who cook at home but want help with cleaning. Timing matters: many households want the maid to come before they leave for work or after morning cooking is done. Since part-time maids work across several homes, fixed and realistic timings make the arrangement more reliable for everyone.
Flourrish helps you list the tasks and preferred timings, sources and shortlists candidates who work in or can reach your area, and arranges introductions. We recommend ID and address verification before the person starts and can help coordinate it, though we cannot guarantee its outcome. Payment, days off and any changes in duties should be agreed directly between you and the housemaid.

Frequently asked questions
How many hours does a part-time maid work?
It depends on the tasks and the size of your home. Some households need an hour in the morning, others need help twice a day. We help you set realistic hours for the work involved.
Can a part-time maid also cook?
Cooking is usually a separate role. If you need meals prepared, our Part-time Cook service may be more suitable, or you can discuss combined duties with the candidate directly.
Who pays the maid?
Payment is agreed and made directly between your household and the housemaid. Flourrish does not set or handle wages.
What are Flourrish's charges?
Charges depend on the support required. We share the applicable charges before starting the search.
