Vacation Chef / Short-Term Hire
A whole week of service, quoted in one place.
Villa weeks, ski houses, family reunions, and short-term placements. Multi-day packages with travel terms, provisioning, and a payment schedule that matches the trip.
What a vacation chef engagement can include
Longer jobs need different math — day rates, travel, and a menu plan that spans a week.
Multi-day packages
Price a three-night stay or a full week as one bookable package, not eight separate quotes.
Day rates & meal counts
Set what a day includes — breakfast, lunch, dinner, provisioning — and price each combination.
Travel & lodging terms
Mileage, flights, and accommodation written into the contract before you commit the dates.
Provisioning & grocery budgets
Separate the food budget from your fee, with receipts tracked against the booking.
Weekly menu planning
Plan the full run of meals with the household’s preferences and allergies attached.
Household coordination
Arrival times, kitchen access, and guest changes handled in one thread with the client.

The same platform underneath.
Whatever you sell, the business runs the same way — and every capability is on one page.
A storefront that shows vacation chef and short-term hire with real menus, photos, pricing, and reviews
Quotes, contracts, deposits, and invoices on one clean path from inquiry to paid
A calendar that enforces your hours, travel radius, and buffer time before a booking lands
Shopping lists, receipts, mileage, and expenses tied back to the order that caused them
Add another revenue stream
Most operators sell more than one thing. Each service gets its own packages and pricing — under one storefront and one calendar.
Book the week, not just the dinner.
Multi-day work deserves multi-day tooling.
