Hire a full-time maid in Bangalore
A full-time maid works one household for roughly eight to ten hours a day — cleaning, dishes, laundry and whatever else you agree. Review ID-verified profiles, chat before you decide, and put the hours in writing.
Hire a full-time maid in Bangalore
A full-time maid is the arrangement most Bengaluru families move to once part-time stops being enough — when there are children, elderly parents, or simply more house than two hours can cover. She works for you alone, usually eight to ten hours, and goes home at the end of the day.
It is also the arrangement people get wrong most often, because "full-time" is not a job description. Two families using the same phrase can mean wildly different work. Write down the actual tasks before anyone starts, or you will renegotiate them in month two.
What a full-time maid usually does
How to hire, in four honest steps
Post your maid job
Share the role, your locality in Bangalore, timings and budget. It takes about two minutes.
Review verified applicants
Compare experience, skills and ID verification at a glance — you always know who you are talking to.
Chat & agree on terms
Settle salary, hours, weekly off and duties over secure in-app chat. You decide the terms.
Sign a digital agreement
What you both agreed is recorded in a simple digital work agreement — clear for both sides.
What sets the rate
Hours, the number of people in the house, whether cooking is included, and how far she travels to reach you. A full-time role in a four-person household with cooking is a different job from the same title in a couple's flat, and it should not be paid the same.
We do not publish a salary table for Bangalore, and that is deliberate. No independent source measures home-help pay reliably below city level, and an invented number would only anchor you to something with nothing behind it. Work it out from the job in front of you and agree it directly — Sevetu takes no commission either way.
How to get a police verification in Bangalore
Sevetu runs an identity (KYC) check — Aadhaar or government ID. That confirms a person is who they say they are. It is not a police or criminal-background check, and we will never describe it as one. What we do and do not check →
If you want a police check as well — and for live-in roles, childcare and drivers it is worth it — you arrange it yourself, and in Bangalore there is an official route. Karnataka State Police handles it through the Police Verification Certificate for domestic servants and housekeeping. Karnataka runs this as a fully online service — you apply with an OTP, upload the documents, and the digitally signed certificate is delivered by email. It is also available through Seva Sindhu and KarnatakaOne. Karnataka State Police — official portal →
Government processes change. Check the official Karnataka State Police site for the current form, fee and documents before you apply. Sevetu is not affiliated with any police department.

You pay the worker directly — Sevetu never takes a cut. Salary, hours, weekly off, leave and notice are documented in a digital work agreement both sides accept.
Frequently asked questions
In practice, roughly eight to ten hours a day for one household, six days a week, going home at night. It is not live-in — she does not stay over. Anything beyond that is a different arrangement and should be agreed and paid as one.
Not automatically, and assuming it is the single most common cause of a full-time arrangement breaking down. Cooking is a skill people are hired and paid for separately. If you want both, say so when you post the job so the people applying know what they are agreeing to.
A part-time maid works one to three hours and usually serves several homes in the same area, so you get a slot in her round. A full-time maid works only for you. Compare part-time →
A live-in maid stays in your home; a full-time maid goes home each night. Live-in raises questions about accommodation, food, rest and privacy that full-time simply does not. Compare live-in →
We do not publish a figure, deliberately. Pay for domestic work settles street by street rather than city-wide, and a number we invented would only anchor you to something with nothing behind it. Work it out from the hours and the tasks, and check what your own building pays.
Yes, and fix which day before she starts. Sundays are the common choice in Bengaluru. A full-time role with no clear day off is the arrangement most likely to end abruptly, and it is the one thing workers raise most often.
No. Sevetu runs an Aadhaar-based identity (KYC) check, which confirms who someone is and nothing more. For a live-in or full-time role it is worth arranging a police check yourself — Karnataka State Police runs one for domestic workers, and the section above explains how.
All of it — Whitefield, HSR Layout, Koramangala and everywhere else. Post your exact locality rather than just "Bangalore": a full-time maid has to reach you every single morning, so distance decides whether the arrangement survives.
