Starting point
Example dishes, household size and meal counts are clearer than a broad request for varied cooking. Add serving times and responsibility for ingredients, then discuss the skills required.
around a school routine
Share preparation, departure and return times; responsibility for children or transport needs a separate agreement.
introducing and handing over duties
Explain duties with examples, show supply storage and agree how to ask questions; do not rely on a written list alone.
Checklist
Selections are not sent or saved.
Before agreeing
Diets, allergies and specialised needs must not be left to guesswork; request confirmation of suitable ability.
