Dinner Without the Daily Stress: Why Busy Families Are Hiring Private Family Cooks

The 5:30 PM Problem

The workday is ending, children have activities, nothing is thawed and someone asks, 'What's for dinner?' For many families, food planning and preparation consume hours every week.

What a Part-Time or Full-Time Cook Can Handle

A family cook may assist with meal planning, grocery shopping, ingredient preparation, cooking, children's lunches, batch meals, pantry basics and cleaning the cooking area, depending on the agreed job description.

A Cook Is Not Only for the Ultra-Wealthy

Dual-career households may decide that paying someone to cook several days per week gives them something extremely valuable back: time.

More Time at Home

Instead of spending the evening shopping and cooking, parents may be able to sit with their children, attend an activity or simply end the workday without starting another shift in the kitchen.
