For domestic helpers looking for suitable work

Nom Bé was built to help domestic helpers in Vietnam find work through a clearer, more proactive process that better respects their privacy. Instead of making your contact details visible to everyone, you can create a public profile, describe your actual experience, and let families review your information before deciding whether to start direct-hire access to your profile.

Start with a clear and accurate profile

For a domestic helper, a profile is more than a short introduction. It helps families understand what work you can do, what kind of household you may be suited to, and where you are available to work. A clear profile can help a family feel more confident when deciding whether to pay for access to your contact details.

When creating your Nom Bé profile, describe the following information honestly:

• Your actual work experience
• Your skills and the duties you can take on
• The areas where you are available to work
• Your preferred arrangement: part-time, shift-based, or live-in
• Your expected salary
• When you are available to start

Families generally assess profiles based on how clear the information is and how closely it matches their needs. The more accurately your profile reflects your circumstances, the more likely you are to be contacted by a suitable family.

Families can browse your profile for free before unlocking your contact details

An important part of how Nom Bé works is that families can review profiles for free. This means that displaying your profile does not require you to make your contact details public to everyone who views it.

Before deciding, families can read your profile, review your experience, work areas, expected salary, and preferred work arrangement. If they believe you are genuinely suitable, they can sign in with a family account and pay to view your contact details.

This approach benefits domestic helpers because:

• Families evaluate your profile before making contact
• Your real contact details are not visible to everyone who views your profile
• Enquiries are more likely to match your needs than random calls
• Families tend to be more intentional once they have shown a genuine interest in your profile

Only families who have paid can view your contact details

Nom Bé does not make domestic helpers' contact details public to every visitor. A family only pays when it wants to view contact details of a specific domestic helper selected after reviewing the profile.

This means:

• You do not pay for your profile to appear in front of families
• The family pays when it wants to view your contact details
• Your contact details are only shown to a family while its access remains valid
• Each family receives time-limited direct-hire access for your profile

This is an important way to prevent your contact information from being exposed too widely while helping work opportunities stay closer to your actual needs.

Once direct-hire access is active, the family contacts you directly

After a family pays successfully, your contact details appear on your profile for that family. From then on, the family can call or message you directly to discuss the job.

For domestic helpers, this means:

• Your contact details are not made public simply because someone views your profile
• Contact usually comes after a family has intentionally selected your profile
• Your privacy is better protected before a family pays
• You remain free to discuss the role, assess the opportunity, and decide whether to accept it

Nom Bé does not accept a job on your behalf, negotiate your salary, or guarantee an outcome. Once the family has your contact details, both parties communicate directly and decide for themselves whether to continue.

Nom Bé currently reviews profiles before publication

To make the platform clearer and limit unsuitable profiles, Nom Bé currently applies an appropriate level of manual review or approval before profiles are displayed publicly.

This does not mean the platform can provide an absolute guarantee about every job opportunity or profile. It does, however, help improve the clarity of information on the platform and gives families greater confidence when browsing.

This also benefits domestic helpers: a well-prepared, clearly presented profile is more likely to stand out to families who are genuinely looking for the right person.

How to write a profile that attracts more suitable enquiries

A good profile does not need to be long, but it should focus on the information families need. They generally want to know what you have done before, what type of work suits you, and under what conditions you are available.

Make the following points clear:

• Whether you have worked as a live-in helper, part-time helper, or in-home caregiver
• Whether you are available part-time, for shifts, or as a live-in helper
• The areas where you can work
• The main duties you can perform
• When you can start
• Your expected salary for the work arrangement you prefer

For example, a profile for live-in domestic work will differ from one for part-time domestic work or in-home care for an ill family member. The more accurately you describe your strengths and the work you can take on, the easier it is for a suitable family to notice and contact you.

What to prepare when a family contacts you

When a family has selected your profile and started direct-hire access, be ready to discuss the most important details clearly. This saves time and helps both parties quickly decide whether the job is suitable.

Be prepared to discuss:

• The type of work you can do
• The areas where you can work
• Your preferred work arrangement
• Your expected salary
• The date you can start
• Any working conditions that are important to you

Clear communication from the beginning can help you avoid unsuitable roles and improve your chances of finding a family that fits your circumstances.

Domestic helpers do not pay to be seen by families

Cost is an important concern for many people. On Nom Bé, domestic helpers do not pay simply to have their profiles displayed to families. The family pays 200,000 VND when it wants to view contact details of a specific profile during the access period.

Trust and privacy remain essential

For domestic helpers, finding the right family is not only about the work and salary. It is also about feeling secure when considering a new opportunity. Keeping your contact details hidden from general profile visitors and only displaying it to families who have paid are therefore important parts of the process.

A good start makes the job search clearer

If you are looking for suitable work, begin by deciding what type of job you want, where you can work, and which arrangement suits you. Then complete your profile in a concise, clear, and honest way. When families view it, they need to understand quickly what needs you can meet and whether they should start direct-hire access to contact you.
