A preview of our Training Manual

One of a kind

We teach all the critical stuff, plus more. We prepare our maids for all the things you require of them. Our training program cover subjects that you don't normally expect from a maid manual, yet subjects that are indispensable for a well-performing, holistic maid. So comprehensive our program is, it dwarfs the TESDA Domestic Helper curriculum. For instance, first-aid and emergency instructions are a must.

"It is designed with a purely practical approach using simple Filipino language."

Simple Filipino language

We made the training instruction lean and engaging. We strategically avoided designing the training instruction in English, and veered away from jargon and abstract concepts.  As most of our maids have not even finished high school, we can't expect too much from their comprehension. The key? Simple Filipino language. We make sure our maids understand

 

We get our maids' hands dirty

Confucius said, “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.” We have designed the training instruction in a purely practical approach so that our maids would understand. We therefore keep the lecture and readings to a minimum, but the exercises to the max. We do not bore our maids with inefficient lectures.
