Part-Time • Live-Out
My name is Ana, a fervent cook who hails originally from the beautiful country of Portugal but now resides in the UK. My passion for cooking stretches back nearly two decades during which time I have amassed a wealth of experience from various roles and industries. Throughout my versatile career, I've had the privilege of contributing to numerous prestigious events in the vibrant city of London. For the high-street fashion brand Ted Baker, my role expanded into personal styling, advising on and creating individual looks for clients. Additionally, I've had the opportunity to manage stock for the esteemed lingerie and swimwear brand Myla, at luxury department stores such as Selfridges and Harrods. Despite my rich employment history, my core passion undoubtedly lies with the culinary arts. I owe my formal training in this field to the highly respected Academy of Food and Wine in London. While my understanding of the culinary arts is extensive, I've fine-tuned my expertise in creating not only traditional Portuguese dishes, but also Japanese, Vegetarian, Mexican, Vegan, African, and Eastern European cuisines. Moreover, I am adept at accommodating dietary restrictions, ensuring complete customer satisfaction. In terms of culinary skills, I am proficient in sushi preparation, barbecuing, and professional plating. I also have a deep understanding of contemporary cooking technology and the highest sanitary standards. As for my credentials, I hold a Food Handler’s Certification and a Culinary Arts Diploma, both of which reinforce my competence in the field. Beyond my cooking ability, I have a keen eye for detail which is essential for tasks such as table setting, serving, and crafting bespoke menus tailored to my employer's preferences. In addition to cooking, I can effectively manage kitchen staff, maintain kitchen hygiene, organise events, and oversee household product purchases. Regarding my availability, I am ready and willing to work part-time, specifically from Monday to Friday, with a preference for mornings and mid-day engagements. Ideally, I see myself in the role of a private or personal cook, a dietary or family cook, or working in childcare or schools - areas where I have significant experience. To provide a glimpse into my personal life, my compassion for others is evident through my previous work with end-of-life patients and children with special needs. I am fluent in Portuguese, English, and Spanish, ensuring effective communication. Additionally, my skills in accountancy management provide me with a robust administrative background. To summarize, I am eager to combine my passion for cooking and commitment to excellence for the benefit of your household. I worked as a live-in nanny-housekeeper and trained as a chef. I have experience working in luxury hotels, VIP events, and venues. I also have experience working as a chef in a care home and as an executive chef.

Cook in Birstall - Jigna C.

Jigna C.

24
Yrs old
Thurmaston, UK  • 2 km away
Full-Time • Live-In, Live-Out
My name is Jigna and for the past three years, I have been fortunate enough to call the United Kingdom my home. Originally, I hail from the culturally vibrant state of Gujarat in India, but my journey brought me to the UK where I currently reside and work, under the provisions of a post-study work (PSW) visa. My roots trace back to an agricultural family in India. My parents have devoted their lives to farming in our homeland. They work tirelessly on our land, taking care of crops and livestock, their dedication and hard work always leaving me in awe. Regardless of my global travels, it is the simplicity and closeness to Mother Nature in farming that I feel deep-seated connection to. Apart from acknowledging and carrying forward the values I derived from my parents, I have developed a keen interest which I take immense pride in - my passion for cooking. There's an immense joy that I derive from being in the kitchen, choosing fresh ingredients and transforming them into mouth-watering dishes. The truth is, I genuinely enjoy the entire process, from the sizzling sounds that fill the kitchen, to the enticing aromas that make me anticipate the final product. I must say, cooking is much more than a pastime for me, it gives me a sense of purpose and fulfillment by creating something that not only appeases the taste buds, but also feeds the soul. I am a 24-year-old woman named Jigna with a passion for cooking, particularly vegetarian and Indian cuisine. Despite having no formal working experience in the culinary field, I possess a strong knowledge of modern cooking technology and sanitary standards. I am skilled in managing kitchen staff, barbecuing, and professional plating. My duties as a cook include table setting, cooking children's meals, kitchen clean-up, and menu creation tailored to the employer's preferences. I am available every day of the week, with various time slots open for morning, midday, evening, and night shifts. I am looking for a full-time position as a private or family cook, either live-in or live-out. I am a non-smoker, willing to relocate and travel, and have a clean police record. I speak English, Gujerati, and Hindi fluently and hold Indian citizenship. I am ready to start immediately and bring my dedication and skills to your home.

Full-Time, Part-Time • Live-Out
I have experience cooking Indian family-style meals in a home environment. I enjoy preparing fresh, comforting food that feels like home, including everyday Indian dishes made from scratch. I’m used to cooking according to family preferences, adjusting spice levels, and making meals that suit both adults and children. I take pride in keeping the kitchen clean, being reliable, and cooking with care as if for my own family. Along with cooking Indian home-style food, I wash dishes and keep the kitchen clean and organized. I believe a clean kitchen is just as important as good food. During my two years of paid experience, I worked consistently in a private family home preparing Indian family-style meals. I handled day-to-day cooking based on the family’s routine, planned simple weekly menus, and adjusted dishes to their taste and spice preferences. I managed my time independently, ensured meals were ready on schedule, and took responsibility for the kitchen after cooking, including dishwashing and cleaning. This role helped me understand how to work respectfully and reliably in a private household setting.
