Family Dinner Night
Gather ‘round the table, not over the stove!
Experience the joy of culinary excellence in the comfort of your own home (and none of the dishes!) with the family dinner service.
We’ll meet briefly to discuss dietary preferences and needs and create a meal plan for your dinner. For recurring clients, we’ll keep a binder of your favorite meals and recipes to easily choose from and recreate as desired. From there, The Kitchen Elf sources fresh, quality (and local, when available) ingredients to create delectable dinners and allow families to simply enjoy time together at the table. As the proverbial cherry-on-top, we’ll handle the clean-up and storage of leftovers, too.
Traditionally, families have opted to hire this service for the busiest day/s of their week when bandwidth is low and the need for rest and family connection is high. See what’s possible in our Sample Menus.
$275 + groceries
One family dinner, planning, shopping, cooking & cleanup. Full service generally about 5 hours.

Weekly Meal Prep
One day of thoughtful meal preparation can make the rest of the week feel a whole lot more palatable.
During each Weekly Meal Prep, The Kitchen Elf works with you to create a family-friendly menu that considers dietary preferences, seasonal ingredients, and busy schedules.
Up to 3 customized dinners are fully prepared in your home and stored for easy reheating throughout the week.
And because hungry kids and teenagers don't always wait for dinner, Weekly Meal Prep can also include grab-and-go snack boxes stocked with easy, satisfying options for after school or between activities.
As always, cleanup is included.
$375 + groceries
Up to 3 dinners, prepared in-home, packaged & cleaned kitchen. Full service generally runs about 6-7 hours.

Cooking with Kiddos
Knead a break? I've got you covered.
Cooking with Kiddos is a two-hour, at-home culinary adventure designed to get little hands busy, curious, and surprisingly excited about food. The Kitchen Elf brings everything we need and guides your kiddos through the process from start to finish, turning your kitchen into a mini cooking camp for the afternoon.
Together, we’ll chop, mix, knead, roll, taste, and get gloriously messy while exploring new ingredients and textures along the way. Kids get to make something with their own two hands, which means they also get to experience that very special moment of “Wait... I made this?!”
Choose an adventure like chicken nuggets from scratch, fresh spring rolls, or homemade pasta, with other menus available depending on age, interest, and appetite.
$295 (includes ingredients from fixed offerings)
Up to 3 kids. Also includes cleanup and storage of creations included, of course! This service generally involves about 1.5 hours of cooking with kids and about 1 hour of cleanup.
