I am looking for a live out local helper starting early Sept basically to take care of my new born baby (his birth is expected 2nd week of Sept) and handle house work. We are two working parents.
I am struggling to find a local helper, a HK person native in Cantonese. She does not need to speak English only Cantonese. I have already tried through the Labour Dpt but so far no results...
If I really cannot find a HK person, then I will start looking for a helper but in this case, I would prefer someone who knows how to speak very good Cantonese AND very good English.
Any tips or referrals for me?! Time is running out and I am getting so worried baby will come before I find anybody...
Are there any agencies who help find Local helpers?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Did you try the hotline for local helpers - 2317 4567. They will send people over that you can interview.
My mother in law used to employ a very good local helper to help her get around as she was an invalid. I can also give you her details if you contact me privately - 9187 6298. When I asked her last year, she was very willing to help with young children. I am not sure how good she would be with newborns though.

Hope you find a good one.
In a different thought, this is actually the reason why FDHs are common and allowed in Hong Kong.

Can you hire a full-time from the hot-line?

if you cant find a local but wanting fluent in cantonese you must go to indonesian agencies,,, Indonesians are fluent in cantonese and also some of them can speak proper english..

Check this out : http://www.g4s.com/hk-contact_us.htm
Through them, ( their referral) we were given several options ( i.e which organisation or church to hire from ) we found someone who would come two hours in the morning and one at night to help someone give her employer a bath/dressed him and help him with his bedtime . They charge HK$ 50/hour but are very good.
Hope that helps.
