When she finished her contract, the children had already grown to ages 5, 11, 12, 14, and 15. She stayed in a two-storey house with three bedrooms and two toilets and was the only helper in the household. Her responsibilities included taking care of the children and managing all household chores. Eme woke up early every day, prepared herself, and cooked breakfast before assisting the children with their daily routines such as bathing, feeding, changing clothes, and preparing their school uniforms, bags, books, and other items needed for school. She also cared for the 8-month-old baby by preparing milk formula, bathing, toileting, changing diapers, putting the baby to sleep, doing night feedings, and administering medicine as prescribed by the doctor. While the baby slept, she handled housework including mopping, laundry, cooking, cleaning, and ironing. Eme is able to manage her daily schedule efficiently, always ensures the children’s safety, and is known for being patient, understanding, hygienic, and obedient in following instructions. Throughout her long service, the children grew very close to her, and the employer treated her like a member of the family.

Eme also has working experience in Singapore for 2 years, completing her contract from 2021 until 2023 with a Chinese family. The family had two children—a 3-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy—living in a 3-bedroom, 2-toilet HDB unit. She also managed cooking, cleaning, laundry, ironing, and dishwashing. Her employer had two children, a 5-year-old boy and a 10-year-old girl who are twins. She was again the only helper and handled bathing, preparing school items, cooking, cleaning, laundry, ironing, and other household chores. Eme prefers to work for Chinese families, Indian vegetarian families, and Indian non-vegetarian families.
