Frequently Asked Questions — Full-Time Live-In Maid Service in Surat

How much does a live-in maid cost in India in 2026?

Live-in maid salaries in India range from ₹15,000 to ₹35,000 per month depending on the city, experience, and scope of duties. In Mumbai and Delhi NCR, experienced live-in maids who can also cook charge ₹22,000-₹35,000. In cities like Pune, Ahmedabad, and Hyderabad, the range is ₹15,000-₹25,000. This is the cash salary — accommodation and meals are provided separately by the employer.

What facilities should I provide to a live-in maid?

At minimum, you should provide a separate, clean room with a bed, fan (or AC in extremely hot cities), and a lockable cupboard for personal belongings. Three meals a day, access to a bathroom, and basic toiletries should also be provided. Many families also provide a basic mobile phone for communication, a TV in the maid's room, and new clothes during festivals as a goodwill gesture.

How many days off should a live-in maid get?

A live-in maid should receive at least 4 days off per month — typically every Sunday. Additionally, all major national holidays (Republic Day, Independence Day, Gandhi Jayanti) and regional festivals (Diwali, Eid, Pongal, Durga Puja, Onam, Christmas) should be given as paid holidays. Many families allow 7-10 days of annual leave for the maid to visit her hometown, usually around major festivals.

Can a live-in maid cook as well?

Many of our live-in maids can handle basic Indian cooking — dal, rice, sabzi, roti, and South Indian staples like sambar and rasam. However, if you need an expert cook who can prepare elaborate meals, we recommend pairing a live-in maid with our dedicated Cook Service. Alternatively, we can match you with a live-in maid who has specific culinary skills — though these candidates command higher salaries.

Is it safe to have a live-in maid when I have young children?

With proper verification, absolutely. All our live-in maids undergo enhanced background checks specifically designed for households with children. We screen for any criminal history, conduct behavioural assessments, and check references specifically asking about interactions with kids. That said, a live-in maid is household help, not a dedicated nanny. If you need focused childcare, we recommend adding our Nanny Service.

What if my live-in maid wants to leave suddenly?

Our placement agreement requires a 15-day notice period from both parties. If a maid leaves without notice, our 1-year replacement guarantee kicks in — we deploy a replacement within 48-72 hours at no extra charge. We also maintain an emergency backup pool of pre-verified candidates for exactly these situations.

I am an NRI — can I hire a live-in maid to manage my empty house in India?

Yes, this is one of our most popular use cases. We place live-in caretakers for NRI-owned properties across India. The maid maintains the home, keeps it clean and aired out, manages society maintenance payments, coordinates with property managers, and ensures the house is move-in ready whenever you visit. We provide monthly photo/video reports and your relationship manager conducts regular inspections.

How do I handle salary for a live-in maid — cash or bank transfer?

We strongly recommend monthly bank transfers. It creates a transparent financial trail for both parties, helps the maid build a banking history, and simplifies any future disputes about pending payments. Most of our maids have bank accounts — if they do not, we help them open one during onboarding. You can also use UPI for salary transfers.

Can I set CCTV cameras in my home with a live-in maid?

You can install CCTV cameras in common areas like the living room, kitchen, and children's playroom. However, cameras should never be placed in the maid's room, bathroom, or changing areas — this is a violation of privacy and potentially illegal. We recommend informing the maid about camera placement during onboarding. Transparency builds trust and helps both parties feel secure.

What is the ideal room setup for a live-in maid?

The room should have a proper bed (not a floor mattress), a fan or cooler, a lockable wardrobe or cupboard, adequate lighting, and ideally a small window for ventilation. Access to a separate or shared bathroom is essential. Many families set up a small shelf or table for personal items. A happy maid with dignified living conditions is far more likely to stay long-term and perform well.
