About – Filipino Maids
They are often preferred for their skills in speaking in English which is ideal for Singaporean families as they can communicate and understand instructions better. This also allows children under their care to be exposed to the English language at an early age.
Furthermore, Filipino domestic workers make up a third of the domestic workers in Singapore so there’s a high chance of getting a transfer maid or someone who has previous experience living in Singapore. This entails not only are they familiar with the Singaporean way of living but they can likely understand and maybe speak basic phrases in Cantonese which will help them assist a Chinese family.
In hiring a Filipino maid, employers can expect well-trained and professional helpers. The Philippine government issues an overseas employment certificate to ensure Filipino domestic helpers are protected and documented. Furthermore, Filipino maids are required to undergo training overseen by the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA). This ensures that all FDW coming from the Philippines are knowledgeable in domestic duties and can properly assist their Singaporean employers.
Agencies in Singapore for Filipino workers provide additional training once they arrive in Singapore, such as cooking classes or specialized training in caring for the elderly, children and infants.

Upon arriving in Singapore, FDWs will complete two days of classroom instruction and three hours of on the job training upon arriving at your home.
