My helper wants to take a month off to return home for a visit, and I can't do without someone at home to look after the kids, anyone know of a good agency where I can engage in a temporary maid. How do they charge and what is the soonest I can get her to start?

You can refer to this article for some options that you can consider (between Babysitters and Nannies): http://blog.moneysmart.sg/family/childcare-options-in-singapore-which-one-should-you-choose-and-how-much-does-it-cost/ The last section also offers some links to agencies which provide such services. You can contact the respective agencies to find out about their availability.

If you are looking for only temporary helper to cover duty for your maid during the one month period, you can consider getting a part time helper or nanny instead of maid from this Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/790785207700722/
