Join a Family as a Housemaid in Dubai’s Jumeira Neighborhood
Looking for a fresh start in Dubai and a caring household to work with? Here’s a unique opportunity — we’re seeking a housemaid to join a welcoming family in leafy Jumeira. If you’re currently in Dubai on a visit visa, particularly if your visa has at least a month left (or more), and you’re in need of sponsorship, read on. This isn’t just a job; it’s a chance to be appreciated for your honesty, respectfulness, and hard work in a safe and supportive environment.
About the Family
Imagine a place where genuine kindness goes both ways: the family you’ll join truly values those who care for their home. You’ll be working in Jumeira, one of Dubai’s most sought-after areas, in a household that believes a respectful, reliable helper makes a house feel like home. This family is known for their considerate approach — they make sure everyone under their roof feels comfortable and appreciated. They’re hands-on with support, not just demands (and yes, the occasional tea or chat is part of the deal).
What You’ll Be Doing
- Keeping the house tidy and welcoming — from daily cleaning to weekly deep-cleans
- Handling laundry with care (and a bit of patience for folding those tricky fitted sheets!)
- Sometimes helping out with meal preparations or grocery sorting
- Supporting organization in cupboards, closets, and family spaces
- Following any special instructions with attention and willingness to learn
- Maintaining open and respectful communication with family members
- Treating the home and everyone in it as you would your own family
What You’ll Bring
- A humble, respectful attitude — kindness is at the heart of this home
- Trustworthiness and a strong work ethic
- Basic spoken English (enough for friendly chats and clear instructions)
- Your visit visa should have at least a month before expiry
- Readiness to accept sponsorship to transfer your legal work status
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
- Direct sponsorship provided if you meet visa requirements
- A genuine, supportive family culture — you’ll be treated with respect, not as “just staff”
- Reliable, prompt salary and fair working terms
- Opportunity for long-term stability and a positive living environment
- Located in safe, peaceful Jumeira with easy access to shops and parks
- Occasional treats, friendly connections, and a real appreciation for your daily efforts
We believe that a great home relies on great people. If you’re looking for a role where you’ll be valued and supported — not just employed — this could be your next step.
