This is my first time of posting in this section. But i feel its the appropriate section to do this.

My team in my new start-up company wants to embark on a new project (which is already in the pipelines) providing house helps and Nannies on request. We recruit them, do extensive background check, give them some kind of training/ orientation, and dispatch to any client in so need of a nanny or house help. There will be an agreed contract term (6 months period or one year period) and the house help can be replaced if not found satisfactory. And the fees the client pay is within the range of the standard norm or slight higher.

If you were to be a client and desperately need a nanny or househelp, what are your criteria and what standards would you be looking for? What age range (definitely not less than 18) do you prefer? What do you think we can do to make our clients happy? What option is preferable...live-in nanny or not?

Your views and opinions will help us in streamlining this project to deliver excellently. We also intend to recruit gardeners, drivers, cooks, etc. At least recruitment agencies shouldn't only work and provide opportunities for graduates. Our targets are people who have these skill sets and are uneducated but willing to work.
