Break it down Gypsy, forget about the agency fees being around QR 7,000 for a 2 year contract.
Housing would cost her at least QR 800 a month, my maid eats roughly QR 500 a month, a ticket to the Phils is around QR 3,600 so over 2 years that breaks down to QR 150 a month. Toiletries and clothing, including haircuts and such run us around QR 200 a month. when she is sick she gets private medical care. If she goes to the Doctor twice a year you can equate that into another QR 50 a month or more. In 2 years she had 2 trips to the dentist, 500 each time which is another QR 40 or so a month. Phone calls home are around QR 100 a month without factoring in transport, utilities and residence permit costs my maid is running me around QR 2,700 a month including her salary.
