Kaya mo bang walang katulong/driver (househelp)

[MadzSantiago]

sa bahay namin may maid kami, pero since nagwork na ako and currently renting a room, kaya ko naman to fend for myself and my needs.

[rainebowbrite]

sa house nga parents ko, meron.

Now that it's just me and my boy, wala. It takes a lot of getting used to for me since I grew up with a yaya who does everything for me.

Sigh.

Pero it's good na I can do things on my own naman. Tamad lang talaga pagdating sa chores.

[sweety_paige]

Kaya naman basta hindi lang masyadong mag utos si hubby.

[kookie420]

yes. my nanay taught us to help out with the chores. kaya kahit papalayasin ng nanay ko ang katulong, nakaka survive pa din kami 

[pretty_cavitemom]

Eversince naman, I was trained to do household chores. Since I resigned from teaching in a regular school, 4 years na akong walang helper; I can juggle my time as a part-time tutor, piano instructor, mother and housekeeper. So yes, I can live without a maid. Kinailangan ko lang talaga before because of my son. I also train my son to be organized of his things para less clutter for me kapag cleaning time. In turn, I praise my son for being helpful. Pero once mag-full swing ang io-open kong piano studio at matuloy ang pagbe-baby next year, I guess I'll be needing an extra hand.

Regarding driver, no problem, too. I can drive! And besides, if I don't feel like driving, my brother is just a few steps away, he loves to drive for me. Iisang compound lang kami.

I never thought that I would, but I could pala. And I'm happy, feeling ko dami ko achievements, especially now na marunong na ko magluto, magbake, maglinis ng bathroom/toilet, and my biggest achievement --> MAGPLANTSA. 

[baby_blue]

I already did and I can say that this is living the real life. Unlike nung nasa Pilipinas pa kami inaasa ko lahat sa maid 

[candyzire]

proud ako na i can ...lumaki ako na kahit may katulong kami gumagawa parin kami ng household chores. nung teenager na kami hindi na kami nag hire ng kasambahay. saka hind ako sanay mag utos sa maid. sayang lang yung ipapasweldo ko. driver...no need na rin. i can drive. mas at ease ako mabuhay ng walang kasambahay.

[ceebee_12]

Yes, I can. Hubby is very helpful naman and most of the time, I don't need to ask him to help. We're not good cooks (yet) kaya puro 'maskipaps' ang luto namin. Laundry naman madali lang coz there's the washing machine. Pero when we have a baby na, we might need househelp if I would still continue working.
 

[divamom]

I can if I really don't have a choice since we're only 3 in the family and I'm a SAHM for almost 9yrs na, so medyo I know na how to work around the house. I depend on my helper mainly on house cleaning lang naman and bantay sa house if we're out. 

[chinesebabe25]

Yes. But I asked someone to do the gen. cleaning twice/week.

[hannabishi]

This is one of the reasons why I am so proud of myself now. I turned into a very independent woman when I went abroad to study. I also grew up with 2 yayas who are with me 24/7. Dati glass of water na lang pinapakuha ko pa. Nasa harapan ko na yun ha.

Ngayon I learned to do everything. I don't even have a family in here. As in. I use public transpo kahit na -40 degrees outside. I do the ironing and laundry. Heck, I can even travel all by myself now. 

[Books_stuff]

Kaya naman namin na walang helper sa bahay.  Since 2000 pa kami hindi na kumuha ng katulong kasi ang dami naming "horror" stories about them pero may mga good experiences din naman sa mga nagtagal at napamahal sa amin.

Malaki na ang mga anak ko (11 yo youngest) at marurunong sila ng mga gawaing bahay.  Pag Saturday ang washday.  Pag Sunday may pumupunta sa bahay para mamalantsa.

Ang tagadrive ay ang hubby.

[bump]

i can kasi i am a SAHM now. but kung magkababy ulit i need a maid.

[Tigershark09]

im also a SAHM and  i live abroad so i have no choice but to do the household chores. im proud that i can manage the household on my own. of course, my husband helps. isa pa lang ang anak namin, siguro kung dalawa na, maloloka na ako. ha ha!

[Lauren_GT]

definitely! i don't know how it is to have a helper since we've never had one growing up and my mom works! i don't know how we managed it. but i do remember laying down my school uniform, shoes, socks and undies at the foot of my bed the night before when i was in kindergarten  i know how to cook, wash clothes and iron (the least of my fave chore to do).

[ellheym]

nasanay ako hanggang sa nagdecide akong maging independent. nong high school ako nag dorm na kasi ako kaya ako na ang gumawa lahat. nong una mahirap pero pinatunayan ko na makakaya ko lahat.

since I work at home hindi ko na kailangan ng katulong kasi I still have time to clean the house at minsan may pumupunta na naglilinis at nag aayos ng garden. Hindi lang talaga ako marunong magluto kaya si hubby ang gagawa at kapag may occasion nakaasa ako sa catering.

[jellyclock]

dati nung bata pa kami we had two maids. tapos ngayon we have 1 maid, a driver and a labadera.

[AnneMP]

If I would be living in a small space, say a studio type apartment, I could live without a maid... yung laba and plantsa lang talaga ang hindi ko kaya.  Babad sa sabon lang ang alam ko.  Ang pagplantsa, sigurado, tataas ang koryente namin pag ako taga plantsa.

Pero if dito sa house namin, hindi yata namin kakayanin ang walang helper.  Matanda na parents ko and hindi kami marunong magluto ng mga kapatid ko ng mga gustong pagkain ng parents ko.  siguro pag we are not attending to anything except our home, then siguro kaya ko na talaga. 

I appreciate our helpers.  Important talaga sila sa amin.  And I think alaga rin naman namin sila kahit papaano.  They're very honest naman and knows how to take care of our home and our family like their own.

yes, kayang kaya...
