Frequently asked questions
Which pincodes does R.K. Puram service cover?
R.K. Puram is covered under pincodes 110022 and 110066, spanning its numbered government-housing sectors. Adjacent Munirka and Safdarjung Enclave fall under their own pincodes but share the same helper pool.
Which areas near R.K. Puram do you also serve?
Munirka, Vasant Vihar, Safdarjung Enclave and Sarojini Nagar are all adjacent and served by the same network. The Bhikaji Cama Place side of the colony is covered as well.
Do helpers need gate passes in R.K. Puram's government quarters?
The sectors are government housing rather than gated private societies, so formal society passes are not the norm and households manage entry directly. Many families still prefer identity-verified helpers since postings are transferable and staff changes are common.
Do timings differ between flats and houses in the same area?
They can. Societies may set entry windows for helpers, whereas independent houses can agree any slot directly. If you live in a society, check its helper rules before fixing a slot; if you live in a house, you have more freedom to choose early or late timings.
Are cooks verified?
Yes. Each cook's documents are checked and background verification is completed before placement. Hygiene practices and comfort with your kitchen setup, such as gas, induction or a chimney, are things you can discuss during the interview.
How long does it take to find a cook?
Timelines depend on how specific your cuisine, diet and timing needs are, and on cook availability in your area. Common requirements such as everyday North Indian cooking in a standard morning or evening slot are usually matched faster than niche cuisines or unusual hours. Shortlisting, a trial and confirmation happen in that order.
