Are helpers easy to find in mixed residential areas?
Mixed areas usually have a steady pool of part-time helpers who move between nearby flats and houses through the day, since the homes are close together. Timing flexibility on your side helps, as helpers plan their route around the slots they already serve.
Is there a trial before confirming a cook?
A trial cooking session is normally arranged so you can taste the food and see how the cook works in your kitchen. You can also interview the cook about the dishes they are comfortable with and their timings. The arrangement is confirmed after the trial if both sides are happy.
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 do I book a helper?
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.
