hi sis just to share din po i have created my own yaya/househelp checklist,infact i have a yaya notebook that i give to her and that consist of her daily,weekly and monthly routines,my house rules and some important notes,pinapabasa ko sa yaya and i explain to her on her Day 1 para sa start pa lang clear na lahat ng rules and chores to do.Here are my sample rules:
1.No using of cellphone during work unless emergency or its me who's calling.She can only use it after work is done or at nighttime after her chores.(Im strict on this kase me mga yayang mahilig mag-cellphone to the point na napapabayaan na yung alaga or yung trabaho.)
2. No gossipping.It is a no-no talaga.(I dont allow her to make barkada with fellow yayas outside,ive had yayas kase before na me awayang nagaganap pa between them at nagkakapisikalan pa not to mention yung magtsi-tsismisan to the max.)
3. I only allow day-offs once or twice a month only.(Madami kase abusadong yaya na pinag-day-off mo na mag-overnight pa sa kung saan hindi man lang nagpapaalam.)
4.Cooking/eating of foods will be advised.(meron kaseng mga yayas na pati snacks ng kids kinakain ng walang paalam pati pagluto ng ulam na hindi naman in-advise na lutuin.)
5.Always ask or if in-doubt ask me on how to...,where to find...at all times.(meron kaseng iba na parang know-it-all)
6.Cash advances are not allowed unless emergency.(syempre kase budgeted ang sweldo it means hindi naman kasama sa emergency allowance mo ang cash advance ng yaya)
7.Be extra-careful with appliances.(Madami na kase nasirang rice cooker at electric kettle sa min bec of carelessness.)
8.Respect of ones own things.(meaning i dont meddle with her things so she should never meddle with our things too.)
9.Always wash hands at all times esp when preparing food and milk.
10.Clean as you go always,keep dry,be clean at all times.
11.First in,First out(this applies with the first stock/s inside the ref that will be cooked.)
Basically eto yung mga important details that i tell my yaya or househelp on her Day 1 and she has a copy of all these so that from time to time she will be reminded of my rules.
