English-speaking maids
Many local housekeeping companies are willing to provide live-in or hourly-rate maids to expatriate families in Beijing. However, English-speaking maids are not available through most local agencies. Many agencies say they have English-speaking nannies, but when pressed, few deliver. English-speaking maids usually cost a lot more than other nannies. Several housekeeping companies based in Beijing offer English-speaking maids:
Beijing EX-PATS Service Company
This company provides a range of services to expatriates in Beijing, including housekeeping and driving. Employment contracts for maids last for one year and include 11 paid holidays, in accordance with Chinese labor law.
