The best way to find a line in or live out would be for the wife to ask around.  Her friends will know someone,  Do not mention how much you are willing to pay.  

 

You may find that you do not need a live in you may have someone in the neighbourhood looking for work.

Maybe I am used to Bangkok prices but what you are willing to pay seems quite low. With live in they will end up working 10 hours a day. So 240 hours a month. 30 Baht an hour?  Would not work in Bangkok, but I wish you the best of luck. Also very doubtful you will find a maid with a car drivers license.

To be honest, I think you need to higher the salary, if you wish someone with a DL - minimum wage with Sunday off is close to 10k a month now - domestic work is considered low status job. As others have mentioned, get your wife to ask around, might have better luck that way, or find a migrant worker, for example from Lao; your wife should be able to apply for a 2-years work permit for a migrant maid.

I think you will have to up the salary you are prepared to pay in order to find, if at all possible, a competent maid who can also drive. 12-15k baht may attract some interest. Otherwise forget the driving requirement and see what you can find for around 10k baht.

My thoughts as well. 7-10k isn't enough.
