Not sure on what to pay - but you can hire from here http://hongkong.asiaxpat.com/helpers/parttime.asp

That's the problem with part-time helpers in HK. It isn't very affordable compared to a traditional live in.
60-70 an hour is a pretty normal rate. So 3000 per week is not at all unreasonable. It's a lot compared to a live-in but a live-in doesn't have to pay rent somewhere else. In essence, she gets that for free from you, which is why you pay her less.

You can always post an ad with your offer and see how it goes. I believe there are helpers already living with relatives here that would prefer a live-out arrangement. Judging from the number of helpers looking for work right now, you may be able to find a few interested.

What you pay her is entirely up to you, you can negotiate a monthly rate with them. However do consider food, transportation etc, etc. I currently have a partime coming in 3 x a week from 9 to 5, with a lunch break as well. 2500 plus 120 Transport allowance as well as lunch at my home. Really depends on you and what is the availability in the market at the time.
