Chief and Nanny

[Anonymous]

Hi ,
First , for reading my post and always being helpful.
I am working as nanny with a family. I cook for them as well. I am very happy in my job. They love me and respect me. I am working 28 hours and I want to work more hours. Unfortunately, they don’t want care more then 28 hours. I want to find a part time job as chief. Btw, I am USDA Certified and can cook food from different cousins in very healthy way. Is there any chance to find a part time job as cheif?
Mostly , families wants someone who sork as nanny and cook as well. Like my current job. But, I don’t want to get another job as Nanny I am okay to just cook for the family. If it’s possible how I could find job like that?
Thanks

Chef. You are looking for a job as a chef - not a chief.


Sign up with a domestic agency.

Chef, not chief.
cuisines, not cousins.

I am guessing that you mean different cuisines not cousins.

Have someone help you with your resume and the best of luck.

Yes. You can probably find a job in the same neighborhood as your nanny family to prepare food for dinner etc. I would advertise on local listserves and care.com to come in a couple times a week to someone's house, do grocery shopping and prepare meals. Do ask someone to write a resume for you.

Sorry for my poor English. Thanks for helpful information

Ask your current family to put something on the neighborhood listserv advertising for you. Build from there.

Good luck!

PP - maybe you could also check w/ your embassy? They might have a network in which you could advertise.

Another idea (maybe in the future) is to start a dinner assembly business where you assemble meals in a ziploc bag with instructions and they freeze it until they're ready to cook it. I use a service line this every couple of months and love it. (I'm a nanny BTW.)

That is illegal unless you have a home kitchen that has been graded by the healt department. I know - we have someone come in once a week and prepare dinners for five nights for us. She told us she could never do this in her home - it must be in our home.
