Housekeepers Who Cook for Your Family

When a Family Needs a Housekeeper Who Cooks

A housekeeper who cooks is the right choice for families who want home-cooked food every day but do not want to hire a separate chef. One employee keeps the house in order, buys groceries and cooks from a menu agreed with the family. The candidate must be able to cook the cuisine the family is used to, know the rules of food storage and kitchen hygiene, and still have time to clean the house properly. These are the specialists we select.

Home-cooked food every day

The family wants fresh meals at home instead of delivery and restaurants.

Children in the family

Children need regular, balanced meals, and the housekeeper plans a separate children's menu.

Special diet

Someone in the family follows a special diet: gluten-free, vegetarian or low-calorie.

No separate chef

The family does not need two employees: one specialist handles both cleaning and cooking.

Where we place housekeepers who cook

A cooking housekeeper wherever you live

We place housekeepers who cook with families in Europe, the UAE, the USA and other countries. We take into account the cuisine the family is used to — Russian, European, Mediterranean or Asian — children's and special diets, the language of communication, the right to work in the country and readiness to travel or move between residences with the family.

What a Housekeeper Does in Your Family

What does a housekeeper do in your home?

The functionality of a housekeeper is always tailored to the family, but most often it includes maintaining cleanliness and order, managing daily household tasks, and creating a comfortable and well-organized living environment.

Cleaning and Order
Cleaning and Order
  • Daily and deep cleaning of all rooms
  • Cleaning furniture, mirrors, appliances and bathroom fixtures
  • Washing floors, windows and doors
  • Cleaning the kitchen and washing up after cooking
  • Care for delicate surfaces: marble, wood and glass
  • Keeping wardrobes, pantries and walk-in closets in order
  • Care for interior items and décor
  • Preparing guest rooms for visitors
Household Management
Household Management
  • Planning weekly menus based on family preferences
  • Buying fresh produce and checking storage dates
  • Cooking breakfasts, lunches and dinners for the family
  • Children's and special-diet menus on request
  • Table setting and help when receiving guests
  • Laundry and ironing, care for household textiles
  • Changing bed linen and towels
  • Buying and restocking household supplies

Additional responsibilities (travel accompaniment, event support, grocery shopping, and household schedule coordination) are discussed individually and specified in the agreement.

Why choose Royal Keeper when hiring a housekeeper

We help families skip months of searching and connect directly with vetted housekeepers — locally and worldwide.

Limited access to strong candidates

Royal Keeper has a large private database: we have been working since 2000, and many experienced housekeepers deliberately do not post their CVs online or enter the open market. You gain access to experts impossible to find through regular listings.

Time and speed of response

When a family suddenly needs a housekeeper, independent searching takes weeks. We already know who is currently available and can present first candidates quickly — especially important in urgent situations.

Uncertainty when a housekeeper leaves

Situations where a housekeeper leaves are inevitable. That is why the agency exists: we do not leave the family to face the problem alone — we launch a new search and help organise a smooth transition to a new specialist.

Search when relocating or abroad

When relocating to another country it is hard to know where and how to find a housekeeper locally, whom to trust, and what the market expects. Royal Keeper operates worldwide and helps find housekeepers in different countries, taking language, culture, and legal nuances into account.

Risk of fraud and unqualified candidates

Over the years we have built extensive candidate histories: we know where and how they worked, which families recommended them, and how they handled challenges. This lets us filter out suspicious and unqualified profiles before they ever reach your interview stage.

Most families who first try to find a housekeeper on their own encounter the same difficulties — lack of time, uncertainty, and the risk of making a mistake. Royal Keeper takes care of all that so you can focus on your family and daily life instead of endless interviews.

Home Staff Agency

A housekeeper with cooking


A housekeeper who cooks combines two roles: she keeps the house clean and tidy and prepares meals for the family. She buys groceries, plans weekly menus and cooks breakfasts, lunches and dinners, as well as cleaning, doing the laundry and ironing and looking after the wardrobe. Families choose a cooking housekeeper when they want home-cooked food every day but do not need a separate private chef.

Royal Keeper recruits housekeepers with cooking skills for families in Europe, the UAE, the USA and other countries. Candidates go through a personal interview, reference checks and a security check. We check cooking skills specifically with previous employers and take into account the cuisine the family prefers and any children's, special or vegetarian diet.

You can hire a housekeeper who cooks full-time or part-time, live-in or live-out. The agency helps draft the job description, balance time between cleaning and cooking, agree the schedule and duties, and supports the family after the housekeeper starts.
