Why check a housekeeper before they start?
- Housekeepers tend to be long-term, trusted staff with the most access of anyone who works in your home.
- They may handle cash for groceries, supervise other helpers, or be home alone for days when the family travels.
- The longer someone stays, the more trust builds — which is exactly why it's worth confirming the basics at the start.
What we check for a housekeeper
4 checks, each with its own result in your report.
ID VerificationAadhaar / PAN / Voter ID
Is their ID genuine, and does it match the details they gave you?
Confirms the ID number and details shared match the format and information on record.
Looks at: UIDAI · NSDL · DigiLocker
Criminal VerificationCourt Record Check
Is there a court case in their name?
Searches publicly available court records under the name and details provided. A result is not proof of guilt, and no result found is not a guarantee that none exist.
Looks at: eCourts records
Police VerificationFIR Check
Is there a police complaint (FIR) in their name?
Checks for First Information Reports registered under the name and details provided, where publicly available. Coverage varies by jurisdiction.
Looks at: Public FIR records
Digital Address Check
Does the address they gave match available records?
Confirms the address shared against available digital and public records — not a visit to the location.
Looks at: Digital & public records
The Digital Address Check is not a home visit. Criminal Verification searches public court records — a result is not proof of guilt, and no result is not a guarantee none exist. Police Verification (FIR Check) coverage varies by city and doesn't include unreported cases. A report is never a guarantee of future behaviour.

Know how many sets of keys exist and who holds each.
2
Set a simple cash process
A fixed petty-cash amount and a weekly note of spends avoids misunderstandings.
3
Re-check when the role grows
A fresh verification makes sense when a long-serving helper takes on more responsibility.
4
Verify any helpers they bring
If your housekeeper introduces others, those people need their own verification.

The checks and the fixed price (₹399) are the same. Choosing the right role keeps your records accurate.
There is no fixed rule. Many households re-check when responsibilities expand or after a long gap. Each verification is a fresh order with fresh consent.
Yes. Verification works for existing staff, and the housekeeper still needs to consent.
Yes, always. We send the housekeeper a consent request on WhatsApp showing exactly which checks will run. Nothing is checked until they approve, and you pay only after they do — if they decline, you aren't charged.
Once the housekeeper consents and you've paid, results are usually ready within minutes. If a source is temporarily unavailable, we keep retrying for up to 3 days, you can read a partial report meanwhile, and a check we can't complete is refunded.
No. A report is one input to your decision, not a guarantee. Criminal Verification searches publicly available court records — a result is not proof of guilt, and no result found does not guarantee none exist. Police Verification (FIR Check) coverage varies by jurisdiction and does not include unreported cases.
