Confinement meals

Hello hello! My husband wants to order confinement meals for me instead of getting our confinement nanny to cook due to the following reasons: 1. Grocery money would end up about the same as confinement catering (his friend say one). 2. Its alot of work for the nanny to prep all three meals and clean up when the time can be better spent at taking care of the baby. I have no idea what groceries would cost $300+ a week actually. So I really don't think it makes economical sense to cater food when we have already engaged a nanny. Any advice?

Hello! 1. depending on the groceries you need - ie. esp the fresh fish/ other ingredients/herbs the nanny need to get for you. The amount can possibly add up to be equivalent amount to the confinement food delivery. BUT, it is definitely fresher n more tasty to get your CL to cook! the caterer is fixed menu and by the time it gets delivered, its barely warm. and they tend to rotate the same dishes every few days. the soup is not as tasty, tend to be diluted. I personally got confinement food delivery and I got sick of it within a week 😅 and ended up my mother had to cook fresh items for me (we didnt get any CL due to lock down) Newborn babies will sleep more in their 1st month. An experienced CL should be able to manage all the cooking, and caregiving tasks easily.
