It depends. We have to trust the maid up to a certain extent and on some things but not fully on everything. Even with other people who are not our maids, we should not give the full trust, even to some members of the family. It all depends.

you should get maids from a trusted source, like relatives so that you could trust your hired help.

lol who can afford to hire a maid? Heck I am the maid at our house. So yes I trust myself 100 percent.

You have to be really careful in trusting a maid. There are a lot of scammers out there. Here in my country, there are maids who pretend to be obedient so they earn their employer's trust and then rip them off after a few days. Some even get their children kidnapped or something. Some just have quick hands. I don't trust maids easily. But if after a year or so they've been doing a good job, if nothing's gone missing or something, then that's the time I start trusting them.

You are so lucky to have a maid. I used to live in my country and everyone has a maid. However, I live in USA now and most of us dont have a maid. I dont trust anybody beside myself. you cant trust him/her all the time... and you can't judge them that they are a bad person either. You know people are different and some of them are good and some are bad... My word is "Never trust them"

It depends upon the situation. Now a days, we can no longer trust anybody due to the fact that a lot of these kind of situations are happening, wherein, in some instances, not all, maid or nanny tried to steal, kill, or even sell your children. I think we can only trust the person if he/she is really a close relative of yours, in which, you totally know the overall attitude of this person right. We cannot blame other people who hired them; sometime people need to hire them due to lack of spare time doing household stuff or chores. In my point of view, before hiring them, be vigilant, cautious, and observant. Try to ask and know their backgrounds before allowing anything to depend confidently on this person. In other words, dont rely too much! Gud day to you!
