The answer

This act is backbiting, as there is no benefit in complaining to women. The questioner should discipline and educate the maid. It is permissible for her to consult experienced and knowledgeable women on how to deal with, discipline, or effectively educate the maid, and to explain her situation to them due to necessity.
