What to compare before you hire
Who does the work?
An agency may source and support the match. A marketplace may give you profiles and messaging. A job board may only publish the vacancy. Know where screening and follow-up stop.
What exactly is checked?
Separate identity verification, NBI clearance, references, training, and agency licensing. A badge or a listing does not automatically include all five.
What happens after payment?
Ask about messaging access, refunds, replacement terms, support, cancellation, worker fees, and who pays the helper. Keep the written terms before you pay.
Where helpers.ph fits
Helpers.ph is a Philippines-focused marketplace. Families can browse and shortlist public helper profiles for free, review profile-level identity, NBI, reference, rating, and experience signals, post their first job free, then use Connect when they are ready to message helpers. Helpers set their own rates and keep the agreed work pay; Helpers does not hold the work payment.
