Hire a part-time maid in Bangalore
A part-time maid comes for an hour or two a day for a fixed set of tasks. It is the most common arrangement in Bengaluru — and the one where timing matters more than money.
Hire a part-time maid in Bangalore
Part-time is how most of Bengaluru actually runs. One maid, several flats in the same building or lane, an hour or so in each, the same times every day. It suits smaller households and anyone who needs the basics covered rather than the whole house run.
Which makes the slot, not the salary, the thing you are really negotiating. A good part-time maid already has a round. The eight o'clock slot you want either exists in it or it does not, and no amount of extra money creates a new hour in her morning.
What a part-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
The number of rooms, how many people live there, exactly which tasks, and how many times a day she comes. Two visits a day is two jobs, not one — price it that way.
We do not publish a salary table for Bangalore, and that is deliberate.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.

Frequently asked questions
Usually one to two hours per visit, sometimes up to three for a larger flat. Many families book a morning visit for cleaning and dishes and a shorter evening visit for dinner dishes.
Because she is fitting you into a round. A part-time maid typically works four to eight homes in a small radius, back to back. If your preferred slot is taken, the honest answer is that it is taken — being flexible by thirty minutes opens up far more applicants than offering more money does.
Yes, and many prefer it because two short visits to the same home beat one visit plus travel. Agree it as two separate visits with separate expectations, not as "a bit more work".
We do not publish a rate card. Part-time pay depends on rooms, people, tasks and how many visits a day — and it clusters tightly inside one society and jumps between them. Your own building is a better guide than any city-wide average.
A full-time maid works eight to ten hours for you alone. Part-time is a slot in a round. Compare full-time →
Agree this before it happens — how much notice, whether she arranges a substitute, and whether the days are paid. Leave is the most common flashpoint in part-time arrangements and the easiest one to settle in advance.
Profiles can carry a Verified badge from an Aadhaar or government-ID check. It confirms identity — it is not a police or criminal background check, and we will not describe it as one.
Post with your locality — Whitefield, HSR Layout, Koramangala or wherever you are. For part-time this matters more than for any other role: she is walking or taking a short auto between homes, so a maid from the next neighbourhood usually cannot take the job at all.
