My sister had a Sri Lankan maid and she paid her AED1800. Her household duties were cleaning, ironing etc. She didn't have to look after the kids or baby sit. One day off a week. Hours of work were 8 til 6.

2200. That would be 1800 salary and 400 food allowance.

We are currently renegotiating with our maid and I would like to put some feelers out there as to how much we should pay her a month? Any advice appreciated - no judgements made :) She is full time live in She is Sri-Lankan (I know it is not supposed to matter where she is from but apparently in Dubai it does) We pay for her phone / internet and TV Gets Fridays off, and a couple of other afternoons a week We allow her husband to live with us as well. They buy their own food. Thanks everyone
