FAQs

Do you send a home cook to Discovery Gardens?

Yes. HelpifyAE covers Discovery Gardens, including homes around Ibn Battuta Mall and Discovery Gardens Metro. Share your preferred date and menu and we will confirm availability.

What session works best for a home in Discovery Gardens?

A 1-hour visit or compact 2-hour meal prep is a practical starting point for compact kitchens and practical weekday food. The final choice should reflect your portion count and recipes: One main dish with a quick grain, bread or salad for a fresh same-day meal. Two mains plus a grain and side, or several portions for lunches and dinners.

Do I need to provide the groceries?

Yes — you buy the ingredients you want and the cook prepares everything in your kitchen. That keeps you in full control of quality, budget and diet.

How much can a cook prepare in one session?

A 1-hour session comfortably covers a fresh meal for a small family. A 2-hour session is better for 3–4 dishes or batch cooking for the week.

Can I book the same cook every week?

Yes. Monthly plans run 2, 3 or 5 times a week and we keep the same cook wherever possible so they learn your taste and your kitchen.

Are your cooks vetted?

Every cook is interviewed, reference-checked and trained on hygiene and kitchen safety before working in homes.
