We are two adults and two children. We are seeking a cook to make blenderized meals for my daughter with special needs. We will show the cook how to make the meals. My daughter is gtube fed. This would be a weekly thing, it will take a few hours to make all the meals for the week and freeze them. Meals would be prepared in our home since we have the needed equipment (blender). We will also require additional meal preparation support when my daughter is in hospital to support the family to eat healthy home cooked meals. We are hoping to find support as soon as possible.
