After many years in Singapore, and making a lot of mistakes in hiring helpers for her own home, Jennifer Yarbrough decided there must be a better way. She was looking for a fellow expat who understood her needs, who could help her screen for someone who would be an asset for her family. To her disappointment, she couldn’t find such a person or company, so she decided to start her own.
After a lot of research and polling friends and strangers about how to make the process better, she developed a process to screen helpers, understand their skills and weaknesses, and match families with good potential candidates.
So with a mission to improve the lives of both helpers and families, White Glove was born.
Since May 2019, when we placed our first helper, we have grown tremendously, and have many happy clients and helpers to count as our friends now. We have hired more agents to help serve our clients better, and we plan to grow even more in the future.

“We have been working with Jennifer and the team since moving to Singapore in the midst of the pandemic - they have been fantastic throughout, helping us to secure our first helper in challenging circumstances and then transferring to a new helper more recently.
A particular shout out goes to Cindy who went over and above to support with a relatively unique scenario - with Cindy's proactive approach and close follow-ups with the relevant stakeholders, we were able to achieve a great result - hugely appreciated!
Would highly recommend :)"
