I was just wondering if there are any filipinos out there who would have any suggestions about what i could get our house keeper as a gift. She is from the phillipines and is in her late 20's/possibly early 30's.

Hi Beck!! Thanks for treating her nice. I would say giving her a vacation for 2-3 weeks (especially this coming Christmas) would be great and will surely give her a reason to cherish, love & serve you more.

Certainly a lot better than a watch, mobile phone or any material things. But if you could give her a sufficient pocket money that should complete the package.

Some housekeeper gets to see their families only after a year or two. As a Filipino in general, there's nothing precious than being with our love ones especially this Christmas.

God Bless You Beck & your whole family!!!

GEEEZ...guys!!!

You made it sound that the girl is MATERIALISTIC person.

take it from me, dear. It doesn't matter what you give her, "it's the thought that counts".

Women in general, loves to receive gifts, it could be a simple kerchief, a bottle of perfume, whatever...she will like the thoughfulness in you.

Thanks for treating her nice...it melts my heart as well...bless you!!!

Two possible things..... 1. Holiday spree back home (round trip ticket and pocket money). 2. Or yeah, the other poster is right, a US or UK or Aussie passport. Hehehehe

A lady will always remember something special, make it something she'll treasure, ie Pearls are suitable for a non romantic gift..so as not to give the wrong impression...

Based on the answers submitted, it's up to you now to decide which one she deserves. What matters most is the gift which is wholeheartedly given to her. Thank you for treating her right. May God bless you and your family.
