Maid off day

Hi can I get some advice on what are the dos and donts of maid off day. My maid has agreed to the timing of 10am-8pm on her off day and also agreed to do some light duties minimally to wash the dishes before she leaves and come back. Today, she “changed her mind” and send me a text that I need to pay her if I expect her to work on her off day, after I asked her to wash the dishes on her off day. Who is right or wrong? What to do to reconcile and make my maid happy as I have 2 kids under 2 and I don’t want her to take it out on my Kids? #Firsttimemaidemployer

would think that off day means rest day to them, so not expecting to work else need to pay them.. just like us if we go office work of rest day, we are being paid (if cover under MOM)
