Arjava brandmark — the letter A with a pink accent

Arjava

/ahr-jah-vah/ — Sanskrit for sincerity

When you're trusting someone with the care of your family, sincerity isn't optional. It's the foundation everything else is built on. That's why we chose this name — it's a promise we make to every family we work with.

At Arjava, sincerity means honest recommendations, transparent pricing, and support that doesn't end after the handover. It means Salwin personally answering your call, not a receptionist. It means staying involved because we genuinely care.

The heart behind Arjava

Meet Salwin

Since founding Arjava Employment Services in 2019, Salwin has personally guided hundreds of families through the process of finding the right domestic helper.

What sets Salwin apart is her commitment to being there — not just during the hiring process, but after. She conducts regular in-person visits, monthly mediation sessions, and is always just a WhatsApp message away. For Salwin, a successful placement isn't just about filling a role — it's about building a relationship that works for everyone.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about hiring a domestic helper through Arjava.

The cost of hire depends on the MDW nationality, loan placements, ex-Singapore, ex-overseas, and whether the helper is fresh or a transfer. All costs are made transparent upfront with no hidden charges, and you can pay after your helper has been handed over to you at the comfort of your home.
No. At Arjava, we only collect payment after your helper has been handed over at your doorstep and all services are completed. There are no deposits or upfront fees required. This is our commitment to earning your trust before asking for yours.
Every helper at our Overseas Training Centre receives comprehensive training in housekeeping, cooking, hygiene practices, and basic caregiving. For elderly care placements, helpers can also be arranged to attend a Certified Elderly Care Course upon arrival in Singapore to build confidence and capability.
Arjava provides transfer and replacement support if there is a mismatch. We offer continued advisory support and guidance throughout the process. Our monthly mediation sessions during the first few months also help address and resolve issues early, so most challenges are worked through before they become problems.
The timeline depends on the helper's nationality and availability. For transfer helpers already in Singapore, it can take as little as 1 to 2 weeks. For new hires from overseas, the process typically takes 4 to 8 weeks, including MOM application, training, and travel arrangements. Salwin will keep you informed at every step.
Arjava places domestic helpers from Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, and India. Each nationality brings different strengths, and we help match the right helper to your household needs and preferences during our initial consultation.
Arjava provides comprehensive post-placement support including monthly mediation sessions between you and your helper during the first few months, communication support to resolve any issues, helper adjustment monitoring, and assistance with work permit renewals, insurance, repatriation, flight booking, and airport transfers. Salwin is always just a WhatsApp message away.
