Hi we will be hiring a helper for the first time. We require her to look after our 1 year old son, cook and do the housework. Which country do you hire your maid from? We're so confused after speaking to a number of our friends and maid agencies. Any advice is much appreciated!

Hire the right person for the job. Why does it matter which country they are from? In some, more developed countries in the world, having a bias over which country a person is from is illegal. And the comments above about certain nationalities being more "obedient". Urg. How horrid.
