How Much Does a Private Chef Cost?

Long-Term Placements

Hourly rates for our private chefs in long-term placements typically range from $30 per hour to $60 per hour pre-tax. 

A private chef that works full or part-time with one household has typically had culinary training or worked in recognized establishments. Their responsibility is to prepare meals in the home for the client. They are able to accommodate dietary restrictions and create a fully customized menu. A predetermined budget is set by the client and the chef handles the grocery shopping, cleanup and storing leftovers.
