What do cooking services include?
Home cooking
Want fresh meals in your home? Your home chef can either offer regular home cooking services where they cook multiple nights per week, or provide a one-off meal if you just need occasional help. Your private chef will ask if you have any food preferences or intolerances, how many people they need to cook for, and what appliances and equipment they can use. They’ll usually plan the meals ahead of time, purchase the ingredients, and freshly cook the meals in your kitchen, and then clean up before they go.
Baking
Want to impress your best friend with an amazing cake for her birthday party? Or perhaps it’s your turn to bring some baking to work for morning tea? Hire a pastry chef or professional baker to create a cake, biscuits, muffins, or something else tasty. They’ll ask you how many people you’re baking for, any flavour preferences, and any special decorations you’d like. Your baker will bake at their place and deliver the finished product to your home or office once it’s ready.
Dinner party chef
If you’re planning a dinner party with friends, why not hire a dinner party chef to help take all the stress out of hosting? Your professional cook will contact you to confirm the number of guests, what courses/canapes you’d like, and whether the event is formal or informal. They’ll usually prepare most of the food where the event is being held (whether at your home or at a venue) and clean up the kitchen after they’re done.
Specialty cooking
Cooking paleo, vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free can be a challenge, whether it’s for yourself, a family member, or for an event you’re catering. Fortunately, many cooks are experienced with a range of different food requirements, including food intolerances, special diets, and allergies. When you hire a cook, they’ll choose recipes and ingredients that are suitable, confirming any dietary requirements before they get started. They’ll be careful to avoid cross-contamination if they’re preparing alternative meals for certain members of your family or party.
Meal preparation & planning
If you struggle to come up with meal ideas and always find yourself short of time throughout the week, why not hire a cook to prep your meals for the week? Your personal cook will confirm how many meals you’d like, the number of people, and if you have any preferences. They’ll choose meals that keep well and are easy to store, and taste great fresh or reheated. They’ll either prepare the food in your kitchen (cleaning up afterwards) or drop your freshly prepared meals off when they’re done, packaged and ready for the fridge or freezer.

Monthly In-Home Meal Prep / Batch Cooking
$320
Vaucluse NSW 2030, Australia
1st Sep 2026
PLEASE NOTE: I previously posted this task on Airtasker and received a number of offers, but unfortunately lost access to my account before I was able to assign the job. I’m still looking to have this done and am reposting the task. If you made an offer on my previous listing and are still interested, please feel free to make an offer again — I’d be very happy to hear from you. This is intended to be ongoing work approximately once per month for the right person. Looking for someone reliable and experienced with meal prep/batch cooking to come to my home in Vaucluse once per month and prepare approximately 48 meals. All ingredients, recipes, quantities, cooking equipment and kitchen facilities will be provided. There is no shopping or meal planning required — the role is simply to prepare and portion the meals according to the provided instructions. Each monthly session involves: 24 × chicken meals, each containing: * 250 g grilled chicken breast * 1 whole sweet potato (cubed and baked in oven) * ¼ white onion * ⅙ red capsicum * Handful of spinach * 10 g walnuts 24 × dinner meals, each containing: * 450 g protein — 6 salmon, 6 barramundi, 6 kangaroo and 6 turkey breast * ½ cup cooked French lentils * ½ cup cooked tri-colour quinoa * 1½ cups mixed peas, corn and carrots * 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil after cooking Everything will need to be cooked, portioned into individual meals and the kitchen cleaned afterwards. The cooking itself takes approximately 5–6 hours once familiar with the process, but I would allow around 7 hours for the first session, particularly while learning the workflow. I’m looking for someone who is reliable and interested in ongoing work approximately once per month Ideally looking for someone who can start this week. If the first session goes well, I’d like to have the same person return each month and make the process very consistent.
