Postpartum Chef Services
Serving the Twin Cities metro area of Minnesota.
The postpartum period is a time of vulnerability, exhaustion, elation, and healing. After struggling with my own recovery from an 80-hour labor, I understand just how important this time is for nourishment. Using my nutrition background, my love for comfort food, and my desire to help new parent(s), I will create meals especially suited for this sacred time.
After initial contact and assessment, I will send you an estimated quote, a sample menu, and food preference questionnaire. All dietary restrictions happily accommodated!
Personal chef service includes:
Consultation to tailor service to client’s taste preferences, nutritional needs, and availability
Creating weekly meal plans that will optimize seasonal and local ingredients, with specific emphasis on nutrient dense, anti-inflammatory, and lactation supportive foods
Shopping for all groceries
Cooking and storing all meals at client’s house or off site
Cleaning, organizing, and inventorying kitchen space
Nutritional guidance and support through individual assessments, upon request
Cost
The chart below is a sample of cost based on servings and meals (excluding price of groceries); prices may vary if your specific meal needs expand outside of this scope. I operate on a sliding scale to try to accommodate as many people as I can while operating a sustainable business. You can choose the low, medium, or high price point within each box that best suits you.
If you are more than 15 miles from area code 55407, current cost of mileage is added. If I cook outside of the clients home, $25 is added per session.
Want thoughtful postpartum meals but live outside of Minnesota? I am also available for virtual consultations, private cooking classes on zoom, or meal-planning services complete with grocery lists and recipes.
