"Stork Express" Chef Service for New Moms (and Dads!)

"Stork Express" Chef Service for New Moms (and Dads!)

Is your best friend, spouse, sig­nif­i­cant other – or you! – hav­ing a baby? For­get about all the one­sies, blan­kets and smart toys she’ll get at her baby shower any­way, and give her the gift that all new par­ents really need – the gift of time!

Dur­ing those first few crazy, foggy, won­der­ful weeks, what new moms (and dads) want more than any­thing is a freezer full of nutri­tious, com­fort­ing, deli­cious and home­made meals, espe­cially if they’ve been con­ceived and cooked by some­one else. Cook­ing Jour­neys’ “Stork Express” Deliv­ery Ser­vice for New Moms is the ulti­mate baby shower gift for the mom­mies and dad­dies in your life.

Cor­don Bleu-trained Chef Luisa Rios will pre­pare sev­eral days’ or sev­eral weeks’ worth of home-cooked meals, all vacuum-packed and fast-frozen to ensure the high­est level of qual­ity and fresh­ness. Then, we’ll hand-deliver the meals right to the new mom’s door, at a day and time that works for her busy schedule.

Just choose from our sea­sonal menu of healthy, deli­cious entrées (see below), or have Daddy do the choos­ing for you. Then Con­tact Us to place your order. We can either get in touch with the mom-to-be directly to make all the arrange­ments, or we can send you a per­son­al­ized Gift Cer­tifi­cate in time for the baby shower. Then, when­ever mom’s ready, we can deliver the order right to her freezer door.

If Mom and Dad have any dietary con­cerns, sen­si­tiv­i­ties or aller­gies, or if they pre­fer a Vegan, Gluten-free or other spe­cialty diet, we can also cus­tomize a menu to their unique needs and tastes. Just browse our Ser­vices & Pric­ing page to find another Per­sonal Chef Ser­vice that will help make this spe­cial time in their lives, just a lit­tle bit less stressful.

Con­grat­u­la­tions – and bon appetit!
