Should we have a maid at home?

Today is Wednesday! Finally I have time to update my blog after a few day I was busy with my kids because my son is fever and now he just recover from fever. Let's me share my worst experience about maid.
I believe all working mothers will need a maid at home. But whether we can trust the maid or not that is another matter. For me I prefer baby sitter than a maid. This is because I have pass by very bad experience.
Now a day we can't trust on maid whether we get it from agency or from friends. I have experience taking a maid from my friend. She introduce to me and liaise with Indonesia agency. As a friend I trust her and give my deposit money to her at about RM 2500. She said the maid will come 2 weeks more. After 2 weeks I ask her why the maid is not come yet? She give me an awnser that the maid has ran away and they tried to find a replacement to me. She ask me whether I would like to get replacement or not? Of course I want and she ask to pay another RM 1000 for the air tickets. I and my husband discuss about this and agreed to pay her another RM1000 because if we need to start again also we need to pay more than this. After one week later the maid has come and my husband need to go to fetch her from KLIA. She has been with me one month and after that ran away.
This is a bad experience for me because even though my mother in law is at home but she still can ran away from my house. I trying to call my friend and ask her back for my money because she informed me that this maid has never come to Malaysia before. But she is cheated me. And she also changed her handphone no. and unfortunately I can't contact her at all.
After this incident happen I don't want to have maid again!
