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.
when rescheduling an upcoming visit
Check acceptance of the new time and its effect on priorities; sending a message does not confirm a booking change.
setting responsibility boundaries
Distinguish agreed duties from work needing permission, qualifications or a different provider before starting.
Checklist

Before agreeing
Diets, allergies and specialised needs must not be left to guesswork; request confirmation of suitable ability.
