With over 308,700 migrant domestic workers now employed in Singapore and demand rising as the population ages, families face a hiring process complicated by opaque agency fees and complex MOM paperwork. 114 Maids is addressing both with transparent pricing and full end-to-end support.
— Singapore families are hiring domestic helpers in record numbers. Dual-income households need support with childcare and household management. Seniors also need care at home. Reports from the NPTD show that by 2030, one in four Singaporeans will be aged 65 and above. Elder care at home is already a primary driver of domestic helper hiring across the country. Seniors require round-the-clock attention that most children can’t always provide alone.
According to the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, there were 308,700 migrant domestic workers employed in Singapore as of June 2025. This number makes domestic workers one of the largest categories of foreign workers in the country. However, the process of hiring a domestic helper in Singapore has long been one of the most opaque consumer experiences in the country. Families are often quoted one price and presented with a significantly different total once all agency charges, administrative fees, and documentation costs are added at sign-off.
114 Maids is a Singapore-based maid agency that has built its model specifically around the problems that frustrate families most. The agency provides full pricing disclosure upfront. There are no hidden fees. Every cost- agency fee, work permit, insurance, levy, medical examination- is presented in a clear breakdown before a family commits to any step of the process. For families managing tight budgets, the agency also offers interest-free installment plans.
114 Maids handles the full MOM compliance process for each placement. This process includes work permit applications, documentation checks, biodata matching, and post-placement paperwork. The Ministry of Manpower requires employers to meet specific conditions covering insurance, monthly levy payments, medical screening, and mandatory rest days. Most first-time hirers aren’t fully aware of these obligations until they’re already in the middle of the hiring process.
114 Maids guides clients through each requirement and manages all submissions directly, removing the risk of documentation errors that can delay or invalidate a placement. The agency matches domestic helpers to families based on care requirements. It covers mostly elder care, childcare, care for disabled household members, and pet care. Families receive carefully selected biodata profiles suited to their specific situation. Consultations are available in person and virtually. The full hiring process can be completed online for families with limited time.
As Singapore’s domestic helper market continues to grow and the regulatory environment becomes more complex, the gap between what families need and what traditional agencies deliver has widened. 114 Maids is expanding its client base in 2026 by offering the transparency and compliance support that the market has long needed.
