Paridah is a mature, seasoned helper from Lombok Barat with close to 13 years of overseas domestic experience across three countries. At 42, married with a grown daughter of her own, she brings the steadiness and perspective of someone who has raised other people's children through infancy and beyond, in household after household, without a gap in her track record.

Her journey took her from a large household in Saudi Arabia (5 years, 3 young children), to a Chinese family in Brunei (2 years, 2 young children), and most recently 6 years with a Chinese family in Hong Kong caring for 2 children through their early school years. Across all three postings she handled childcare, general housework and cooking — and along the way picked up Cantonese and Arabic in addition to her native Bahasa Indonesia, on top of Chinese, Indonesian and Arabian cooking.

Her long, consistent history with Chinese employers speaks for itself, and she is comfortable being interviewed by phone or videoconference.

Paridah is a strong match for families with young children who want an experienced, no-nonsense helper — someone who has already done this for over a decade and knows exactly how to run a household smoothly.
