If you lived in the Philippines would you have a full time helper?
What would you pay them?
We have somebody come in once a week and do general cleaning and ironing. We pay her 400 pesos for the day. If you asked a filipino or even a foreigner living here they would say that is high. She is experienced and does a great job. Also use her on the odd day the kids are home and we are both working.

Just remembered i was given a half day to do housework
