Hire verified domestic staff in Abuja
Nannies, cooks, drivers, housekeepers, security staff and gardeners, with identity, address and guarantors checked.

Hiring in Abuja: what to know
Satellite-town commutes
Live-out staff often travel in from places such as Kubwa, Lugbe, Nyanya or Mararaba. Ask applicants where they live and how long the journey takes before you agree start times.
Security estates
If you live in a gated estate, find out what the estate needs to register your staff (for example a passport photo or an ID card) and tell applicants in advance.
Drivers and official routes
If your driver will use the same routes to offices and schools every day, take a test drive on those routes during the interview.
You can post a job for any part of Abuja, for example Maitama, Asokoro, Wuse 2, Garki, Jabi, Gwarinpa, Katampe, Life Camp or Lokogoma. State the district (for example "Wuse 2" or "Gwarinpa") and whether the job is live-in, with accommodation and feeding, or live-out.
