Frequently asked questions
Which areas near Sarojini Nagar do you also serve?
Coverage around Sarojini Nagar includes Chanakyapuri, R.K. Puram and the Safdarjung Enclave–Green Park belt, along with the Lodi Road side. Helpers serving the INA and Dilli Haat stretch commonly work across these areas.
Do helpers in Sarojini Nagar need gate passes?
In the older government quarters, entry is managed informally by the household. In the newer redeveloped towers, helpers are registered at the gate much like in private gated societies, which the household can arrange before the first visit.
Which pincode does Sarojini Nagar service cover?
Sarojini Nagar falls under pincode 110023. Households in the government quarters around the Sarojini Nagar Market and towards the Pink Line metro station are within this coverage.
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.
Can I hire a cook for just one meal a day?
Yes. Part-time cooks come for one or more meal slots, and each slot usually takes one to two hours depending on the number of people and dishes. Full-time and live-in cooks are available for households that want all meals and snacks handled through the day.
Can I get a cook for my regional cuisine or diet?
You can specify cuisine preferences, such as North Indian, South Indian, Bengali, Maharashtrian or others, and dietary needs like Jain, vegetarian, diabetic-friendly or low-oil cooking. Matching is done against these preferences, and a trial meal helps confirm the cook's style suits your family. The more specific you are, the better the match.
