Helpers placed through MyBuddyMaid are already document-checked and background-verified, and you can keep a copy of the helper's ID for your own records.
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.

You can reach out on WhatsApp, call the helpline, or book through the app. Share the service you need, your locality, preferred timings and any specific requirements such as language or cuisine. Matching profiles are then shortlisted and interviews or a trial are arranged with you.
