Everything handled

What your placement includes

One fee, no surprises. From your first enquiry to long after your helper arrives, we handle every step.

Vetted biodata matching

Browse pre-screened helper profiles matched to your household's needs — experience, language, and skills verified before you ever interview.

End-to-end documentation

Work permits, visa processing, FOMEMA medical checks, and insurance — all immigration paperwork handled for you, fully compliant.

Genesis Training Academy prep

Every helper completes structured training in housekeeping, cooking, childcare, and basic elder care before joining your home.

Free replacement guarantee

If the match isn't right, we find a suitable replacement at no additional recruitment cost — with post-placement support throughout.

Why families choose us: Unlike standalone maid agencies, GLC Hire is backed by Genesis Life Care — Malaysia's largest aged-care provider. Our helpers train with real care professionals, not just from textbooks.

The day to day

What a domestic helper actually handles

A domestic helper runs the household. Scope is agreed in writing before placement, so there are no arguments about it later.

Cooking and kitchen

Daily meals for the household, marketing, and cooking to your family dietary needs, halal or otherwise.

Cleaning and laundry

General housekeeping, washing, ironing and keeping the home orderly week to week.

Childcare support

School runs, meal preparation, bathing and supervision for younger children, alongside the parents rather than replacing them.

Help for an elderly parent

Light assistance for a parent who is still largely independent — meals, company and a hand around the house.

Errands and marketing

Groceries, wet market trips and household errands, so the week runs without you having to schedule it.

Pets and general upkeep

Feeding and walking pets, plant care and the small recurring jobs that otherwise pile up.

Choosing the right placement

Do you need a domestic helper, or a caregiver?

This is the question most families get wrong at the start, and it is the one that decides whether a placement works.

A domestic helper

The household is the job — cooking, cleaning, laundry, children, errands. Light help for an elderly parent can sit alongside that, but it is not the main task.

An elder care helper

A parent needs daily personal care and company, and the housework comes second. See elder care placement →

A companion or nursing caregiver

Hands-on daily care or overnight company after hospital, a stroke, or for a bedbound parent. See companion care →

Tell us honestly what the day looks like and we will tell you which one you actually need — including when the answer is not a domestic helper.

Two routes

New placement or a transfer helper

New placement from overseas

A helper recruited, trained and processed from source. Longer lead time because of permit and immigration processing, but you choose from a full shortlist.

Transfer helper

A helper already in Malaysia moving from another employer. Faster to place, and you can meet her in person before deciding.

What it costs

Monthly salary plus a one-time agency fee, set out in full with no hidden charges. See pricing and fees →

How it works

From first message to helper at your door

1. Tell us the household

Size of the home, number of children, whether an elderly parent is involved, languages spoken and the cooking you need.

2. We shortlist

You receive biodata for helpers whose experience matches your household, not whoever happens to be available that week.

3. Interview and choose

Speak to the shortlist yourself, in person or by video, before you commit to anyone.

4. Documentation

Permit, FOMEMA medical, insurance and immigration processing handled by a JTKSM-licensed agency. See the full 8-step process →

5. Pre-placement training

Helpers are prepared through Genesis Training Academy before they start. See the training academy →

6. Support after placement

Post-placement support and a free replacement guarantee if the match does not hold.

Common questions

Hiring a domestic helper — FAQs

Are you a licensed agency?

Yes. We operate as Agensi Pekerjaan Genesis Life Care under a JTKSM licence. Ask us for the licence number and we will give it to you.

How long does placement take?

A transfer helper already in Malaysia is usually faster. A new overseas placement depends on permit processing — we will give you a realistic date, not a hopeful one.

Which nationalities are available?

We place Indonesian and Filipino domestic helpers. Availability of each shifts with Malaysian immigration policy, so tell us your preference and we will confirm what is genuinely open right now.

What if the helper does not suit us?

Tell us early. Our free replacement guarantee covers you, and we would rather rematch than have a household put up with a bad fit.

Can a helper also care for my parent?

Light help, yes. If your parent needs personal or medical care, that is a caregiver placement and we will say so rather than overload a domestic helper.

Who handles the paperwork?

We do — permit, FOMEMA medical, insurance and immigration. That is the point of using a licensed agency instead of an informal middleman.
