Hiring home help in Chembur

Chembur is a central-suburb residential area of societies and older colonies. Hiring here works the way it does across Mumbai: someone in the building knows someone, a number gets passed along, and a stranger starts work on Monday with nothing checked and nothing written down.

In Mumbai the everyday word is kaamwali bai. Sevetu changes the order. Post what you need with Chembur as your locality, review ID-verified profiles from people who can genuinely reach you, chat before you commit, and record the salary, hours and weekly off in a digital work agreement. You pay the helper directly and Sevetu takes no commission.

Areas near Chembur

Helpers rarely work one street only. Chembur borders Ghatkopar, Govandi, Wadala, Kurla — widening your post to the neighbouring areas is usually the difference between three applicants and thirty.

Beyond identity

How to get a police verification in Mumbai

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 Mumbai there is an official route. Mumbai Police handles it through the online Domestic Servant Intimation form. The Mumbai Police form asks for the helper's photograph, an identity proof such as Aadhaar, a driving licence, PAN, voter ID or passport, a residential proof, and the employer's own name, contact number and address.

Government processes change. Check the official Mumbai Police site for the current form, fee and documents before you apply. Sevetu is not affiliated with any police department.

Questions & answers

Frequently asked questions

Post your job on Sevetu with Chembur as your locality rather than just "Mumbai". You will get fewer applicants and far more who can actually reach you every morning — which is what decides whether the arrangement lasts past a month.

Maids and house help, cooks, nannies and babysitters, japa maids for newborn care, elder care attendants and drivers. You post what you need and verified helpers in and around Chembur apply.

Chembur sits next to Ghatkopar, Govandi, Wadala, Kurla. Helpers commonly work across two or three adjacent areas, so it is worth saying in your post if you are flexible about which side of the neighbourhood someone comes from.

We do not publish a locality rate card, and we would rather explain why than invent one: no independent source measures home-help pay at neighbourhood level, and pay clusters tightly inside one society and jumps between them. The most reliable guide is what your own building already pays.

No. Sevetu runs an identity (KYC) check against Aadhaar or a government ID — that confirms who someone is and nothing more. For a police check, Mumbai Police runs the online Domestic Servant Intimation form, which you arrange yourself.

No. Sevetu charges neither the household nor the worker. You pay only the salary you agree, directly to the person doing the work.

Yes. It is free for workers, takes no commission, and lets them apply directly to families. See household jobs in Mumbai.

Most speak some combination of Marathi, Hindi, Gujarati and English. Applicants list their languages, so you can filter for someone you can actually give instructions to.
