Emma was super helpful & took care of everyone so we could also enjoy our family gathering. She worked so efficiently in the background & took care of things for us. Lovely to have her, highly recommend Emma for a family get together to take the stress of having to host it in our own.

Waiter for an evening

$250

Wow! I'm a very pedantic lawyer, and I demand very high standards. Christina not only met standard, she exceeded it. Christina is very pleasant, proactive, easy to deal with, communicates well and has a very warm personality. Christina helped us cook, serve 17 guests with canapés, drinks and English roast, and then clean up until everything was spotless and the house was back in order. Christina even stayed late. She was proactive with guests.

Hello - we're in a bit of a bind due to our waiter falling ill. It's last minute, but if you're available and can support, we'd greatly appreciate it! We're looking for someone who can act as a waiter for a private Halloween Party at our home in Darlinghurst on Saturday, October 25th. Due to group size we are seeking an additional waiter for the opening hours of the party. The rate includes 4 hours of service, beginning at 7PM with an hour of set up before guests arrive at 8PM. Please note that this rate does not include a tip, which will be provided in person as long as you arrive on time and carry out the tasks outlined below. I also take into consideration the fees imposed when determining additional amounts. You will assist the designated bartenders as needed, as well as pass drinks around and ensure dirty glasses are collected and cleaned. You will be asked to wear a Halloween themed waiter outfit that will be provided. This includes a white button up shirt, black vest, and orange apron. All that is needed of you attire wise is black pants and ideally black shoes. If you do not have either, please let me know and we can look into alternatives. Thank you!
