If you are looking for a good caregiver for your child, you may have heard about Filipino caregivers. Filipinos are in high demand from families looking to hire a caregiver who speaks English and can work live-in. We can say that some of their personality traits and their good communication with children have fueled this demand. Filipino caregiver fees in 2020 seem to be around $1,000 and a weekly allowance of 50 TL. These amounts can be higher depending on the job description and the employer's expectations.
If you have twins or 2-3 children and need a caregiver who can attend to all of them within a certain schedule, 2020 Filipino caregiver fees can go up to $1,200 or $1,500. Standard caregiver fees are usually determined with the consideration that care will be provided for a single child. If the caregiver is expected to take care of more than one child or perform extra tasks alongside childcare, the monthly fee required will be higher.
Many families looking for a good child caregiver prefer to interview candidates coming from or ready to come to our country from the Philippines. The fact that many caregiver candidates from this island nation speak good English is appealing to parents who want their children to be introduced to this globally widespread language from a young age.
We can say that Filipinos are among the main preferences of families looking for live-in caregivers. The number of local caregivers inclined to work this way is not very high, while almost all foreign caregivers tend to serve as live-in nannies.
In addition, their ability to establish a good and effective communication with the children they care for is also appealing to parents. Many families are satisfied with them; as they manage to balance discipline and comfort well in child education. They know well when to act as an authority figure whose words should be listened to and when to behave like an energetic and cheerful sister with whom they can spend fun times.
Generally, their gentle and calm personality, their efforts to adapt to the principles and daily life of the family they work with, and their ability to achieve this often in a short time are among the reasons why Filipino helpers and caregivers are preferred.
