Hiring a yaya shouldn't feel like a gamble.

One-off placement fee, plus commission on the first month's salary. Wait days for a shortlist, weeks to place.

Look for the badge.
ID-verified.
Before you meet.
The badge only appears after two checks pass: a government ID, and a live selfie matched against it. It's on their profile before you ever send a message, not something you have to take on trust.

Everything families ask before they hire: straight answers, no fine print.
How does Pinoyaya verify yayas and housekeepers?
Helpers can complete identity verification (a government ID plus a live selfie match) to earn an ID-Verified badge on their profile. Not every helper has completed it yet, so always check for the badge and talk to a helper directly before you hire.
Are helpers background-checked?
No — Pinoyaya does not run criminal background checks. What we verify is identity: a government ID matched against a live selfie, shown as the ID-Verified badge once completed. Some helpers mention an NBI clearance or a training certificate in their own profile description, but treat that as a claim to check yourself, not something we have confirmed. Always ask to see the document.
Is it safe to hire a yaya through an app?
Yes, and arguably safer than a tita's referral or a Facebook group. You can check for the ID-Verified badge, read a helper's own description of their work, compare experience and rate, and report anyone from inside the app. Repeat complaints lead to suspension and removal.
How is Pinoyaya different from a traditional yaya agency?
Traditional agencies charge ₱5,000–₱15,000 placement fees and can take weeks. Pinoyaya is ₱699 for 30 days of direct access to verified helpers: no placement fee, no commission, no middleman. You hire and pay them directly.
How much does Pinoyaya cost?
Families pay one flat ₱699 for 30 days of full access: browse, message, and hire as many verified helpers as you need. No placement fee, no commission, cancel anytime. Helpers use Pinoyaya free.
Which cities is Pinoyaya available in?
Pinoyaya is available nationwide across the Philippines, with the most verified helpers in Metro Manila, Cebu, and Davao. Most searches return verified helpers within 5–15 km of your home.
