How do I book a maid in Kolkata?

Open the Zaruri Hai app, tap Maid Service, enter your area, hours and tasks, and choose from verified maids near you. It takes a couple of minutes — no agency visits, no waiting for callbacks. Confirm the slot, and your maid is booked.

Can I see the maid's profile before I book?

Yes. You can view verified maids near you — their experience, the tasks they handle and their availability — and choose the one that suits your home. No blind placements: you pick, then confirm.

How fast can I get a maid?

Fast. Zaruri Hai works on demand, so most bookings across Kolkata are matched the same day or next day — which is exactly why people call us the "instant maid app." Urgent need late at night? The app is open 24×7, so you can book a maid in Kolkata whenever it suits you.

How early should I book a maid?

For everyday help, booking a day ahead gives you the widest choice of maids near you. Need someone urgently? On-demand slots are often available the same day across most of Kolkata.

What types of maids can I book?

Whatever your home needs — book one type or mix several:

• Part-time maid — daily cleaning, dishes, sweeping-mopping and laundry, usually 1–3 hours
• Full-time maid — 8–10 hours a day of all-round household help
• Live-in / 24-hour maid — round-the-clock help who stays at your home
• Cook (veg & non-veg) — hire a dedicated cook for daily meals, tiffin, or occasional party cooking
• Babysitter & nanny — childcare and newborn care
• Elderly & patient caretaker (aya) — companionship, mobility help and basic care

One maid for cleaning and cooking, or separate help for each — your call.

What does a part-time maid actually do?

A part-time maid handles your daily essentials in 1–3 hours: sweeping and mopping, dusting, washing dishes, laundry and general tidying — the classic jhadu-pochha-bartan routine. Tell her your priority tasks when you book, and she focuses on exactly those.

Can I book a maid for elderly or patient care?

Yes. Book an experienced aya or caretaker for an elderly family member or someone recovering at home — help with mobility, feeding, hygiene and companionship, part-time or 24-hour. Many of our caretakers are used to supporting Bengali-speaking seniors with real patience.

Do you offer Japa maids for newborn care?

Yes. A Japa maid supports new mothers and newborns with baby massage, bathing, feeding help and postnatal (Japa) care at home. Book live-in or daytime Japa help for exactly the weeks you need it most.

Are your maids background-verified?

Yes — every maid listed on Zaruri Hai is ID-verified and background-checked before she reaches you. We confirm identity, local address and references, so the person walking into your home is someone you can genuinely trust. That verification is the entire point of the word "verified."

Is my home and family safe during the visit?

Yes. Every maid is identity-verified before the booking, you receive her details in the app, and our 24×7 support is one tap away if you ever need it. Verification plus full traceability is how we keep your home safe.

What if I'm not home when the maid arrives?

Many customers schedule maids around their own routine and share entry instructions in advance. You'll get booking updates in the app, and 24×7 support is there if anything needs sorting on the day.

How much does a maid cost in Kolkata?

You see the exact price upfront in the app, before you book — no "call for a quote," no hidden agency commission. The cost depends on three simple things: hours per day, the tasks involved, and how often you need help.

Your exact price for your exact requirement is shown live in the app.

Do I have to pay a big agency commission?

No. Traditional Kolkata maid agencies often charge a one-time commission of a full month's salary — sometimes more. With Zaruri Hai you book through the app on clear, upfront pricing: no surprise commission, no bargaining at your door.

How do I pay for the maid service?

Payment runs through the app on transparent, agreed pricing — no cash confusion, no surprise charges. You know exactly what you're paying before the maid starts, and every booking stays saved in one place.

What if the maid doesn't turn up or isn't a good fit?

You're covered. If your maid is absent or simply isn't right for your home, request a free replacement in the app and we'll arrange another verified maid quickly. Reliability is built in — you're never left scrambling at the last minute.

Can I book a maid just for cooking, or just cleaning?

Absolutely. Book help for a single task — only cooking, only cleaning, only dishes, only laundry — or all-round support. You choose the tasks, and you only pay for what you actually need.

Can I book a cook and a maid together?

Yes. Plenty of homes book a cook plus a maid through the same app — one for meals, one for cleaning — or a single full-time helper who does both. You manage it all from one place, on one transparent bill.

Do I need to provide cleaning supplies?

Usually yes — most households keep their own broom, mop and cleaning products, and the maid uses those. Mention any specific requirement when you book so there are no surprises on day one.

Can I get a Bengali-speaking maid?

Yes. Most of our maids are local to Kolkata and speak Bengali and Hindi, so communication is easy from day one — which matters when you're explaining exactly how you like your home run.

Part-time, full-time or live-in — which should I pick?

• Pick part-time for daily cleaning, dishes and laundry around your routine.
• Pick full-time if you want one person handling most chores through the day.
• Pick live-in for round-the-clock help — ideal for new parents, large families, or elderly care.

Still unsure? The app suggests the right option based on your hours and budget.

Can I book a maid for just a few days or one time?

Yes. Need help only for a week, during guests' visits, or for a one-time deep cleaning? Book short-term or one-time maid help in the app without committing to a monthly arrangement.

Is there a trial before I commit?

Yes — you can start and see how your maid settles in. If the fit isn't right during the early days, switch to another verified maid through the app at no extra cost. You're never locked into a placement that isn't working.

Why book a maid on the app instead of through an agency?

One app does what would otherwise take an agency, a notice board, and a lot of phone calls.
