Frequently asked questions
Which areas near Jogeshwari West do you also serve?
Jogeshwari East, Andheri West and Goregaon West are served by the same nearby helper pool. Oshiwara, Behram Baug, the S.V. Road belt and the Link Road towers all fall within Jogeshwari West coverage.
Which pincode does the Jogeshwari West service area cover?
Jogeshwari West falls under pincode 400102, which covers the station side, S.V. Road and the Oshiwara stretch of the Link Road. Jogeshwari East across the railway line is pincode 400096.
Can helpers reach the Oshiwara towers in Jogeshwari West early?
Yes. Many helpers live within walking distance in Behram Baug and the lanes near Jogeshwari station, and Metro Line 2A's Oshiwara station is on the Link Road, so early-morning slots at the Oshiwara societies are generally workable.
What should I tell the helper about reaching my home?
In mixed areas, addresses can be harder to locate than in a single large society. Share a clear landmark, the building or house name, floor, and whether there is a lift, and mention any gate or security step. This helps the helper arrive on time on the first day.
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.
What if the helper leaves or does not work out?
A replacement policy is in place across all services. If a helper leaves, is irregular, or the fit is not right, you can raise a replacement request and a new profile is matched to your original requirements. The specific terms are shared with you at the time of booking.
