What you see and choose in the app
- Hire part-time help for 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 hours a day, or full-time help who lives in with you.
- Tell the app the work you need, the size of your home (1 to 5 BHK) and, if you have one, whether you prefer a male or female helper.
- Matching helpers near your address are listed with their distance in km. Sort the list by distance, or by date to see who joined most recently.
- Each profile shows the helper's experience, the work they do, their age, marital status and education, and whether they read, write and speak English. Salary isn't listed — you agree it with the helper.
- "View Contact" uses one contact from your plan. You can then call the helper, chat in the app or message them on WhatsApp.
- After a call you can mark what happened — interviewed, hired, didn't answer or didn't turn up.
- If you want a trial day, agree it with the helper directly — when it is, what they'll do and what you'll pay for it.
- Don't pay a helper in advance for work they haven't done. The app shows the same reminder.
- Ask to see the helper's ID before they start. Checking documents is the employer's responsibility, and MeeHelp recommends that you arrange police verification once you have hired someone.
- The app checks your address — city, pincode and map location — and tells you if your area isn't covered yet.

Hiring safely
What MeeHelp checks when a helper registers
When a helper registers on MeeHelp:
- Mobile number verified by OTPEach helper's mobile number is verified with a one-time password when they register.
- Aadhaar document collected and manually reviewedEach helper submits their Aadhaar document when they register, and MeeHelp reviews it by hand. The address on that document is available to MeeHelp.
MeeHelp reviews the helper's Aadhaar document to check their identity. It is not a police verification or a background check, and MeeHelp does not separately check where the helper lives — so follow the tips below as well.
Tips for hiring
- Walk the helper through each room on the first day and show them which products to use on which surfaces.
- Speak to the helper on the phone, and meet them before they start.
- See their original ID in person when you meet.
- Many housing societies and local police ask households to register domestic staff. Check what your building and city require.
- Agree the tasks, hours, salary, weekly off and notice period clearly — in writing if you can.
- Start with a trial before you commit.
- Keep cash, jewellery and important documents locked away, especially in the first few weeks.

Maid / House Help: frequently asked questions
What does a maid usually do in a home?
Most house help covers daily cleaning: sweeping, mopping, dusting, dishes, bathrooms and laundry. Every home is different, so agree the list of tasks with the helper before they start.
Can I hire a maid for just a few hours a day?
Yes. Part-time help can be hired for 2 to 12 hours a day — choose the hours when you search, then agree the exact time slot with the helper.
Who decides the maid's salary?
You and the helper agree the salary directly. MeeHelp doesn't take a placement fee — you choose a plan for the number of helper contacts you need.
Can I try a maid before hiring?
Yes, if you agree it with the helper. The app doesn't arrange trials: once you've spoken to a helper, agree a trial day with them directly and agree what you'll pay for it.
What if it doesn't work out?
You can end the arrangement and speak to other helpers. MeeHelp doesn't place helpers with you, so you stay in control of who you hire.
