South Melbourne VIC, Australia

Hi there! 😊 I'm looking for someone to create a simple square cake (25 x 25 cm) with a strong focus on the appearance and design. The flavour and fillings are not important — the main priority is that the cake looks exactly like the image I’ll provide. It doesn't need to be fancy on the inside, just visually accurate and clean on the outside. Perfect for someone confident with decorative cake finishes. This task is based/delivered to South Melbourne 3205 Victoria. Please reach out with photos of your past work if possible. Happy to answer any questions! Thanks so much!

Weekly in-home meal prep + produce shopping (animal-based)
$200
Brighton VIC 3186, Australia
22nd Apr 2025
🥩💫 In-Home Meal Prep + Market Sourcing Wizard Wanted (For Two Time-Poor Health Practitioners with Mitochondrial Standards Through the Roof) Hello, beautiful human! We’re a duo of passionate, purpose-fuelled health practitioners running a wellness clinic in Melbourne — and we are on the hunt for a kitchen angel to help us stay nourished, energized, and in flow. We eat an animal-based, mitochondria-loving diet (think nose-to-tail nourishment, wild-caught goodness, and ancestral vitality), but with our current schedule… grocery shopping and meal prep have become a bit of a quantum stress fracture. We’re looking for someone who can: 🛒 Shop weekly at either South Melbourne, Prahran, or Queen Victoria or direct from trusted farmers / farmer's markets 👩🍳 Prep meals. You're welcome to use our kitchen at home while we’re at work if needed. 🥩 Batch cook 2 x breakfast, 2 x lunch, and 2 x dinner options for the week 🧽 Leave the kitchen gleaming and infused with good vibes (if using ours) ✨ We’ll either provide a weekly menu or co-create something based on your repertoire — as long as it’s free from seed oils, additives, and sad supermarket meat. We adore: Grass-fed beef, pastured eggs, wild seafood, butter, broth, and organ meats Whole food simplicity, cooked with intention and care The kind of meals that taste like medicine and feel like home We require: Experience with food prep and working with quality animal-based ingredients A deep respect for cleanliness, energetics, and kitchen flow Police check + references Someone we can trust to be in our space with love, professionalism, and a little sparkle You’d be prepping for two people (plus possibly the occasional bone broth bone for our fluffy office dog 🐾). 💫 If you’re a culinary craftsperson with a love for radiant health, good food, and high standards, we’d love to connect. Please tell us about yourself, your experience, and your availability. We’re so excited to meet the right match!

I am looking for a person to assist me with organising my space, as well as any tasks I find difficult, such as completing complex paperwork, following up on emails, organizing appointments come on communicating on my behalf, planning travel, making purchases comma and problem solving (for example, comparing credit card providers or finding an accountant that is appropriate). If possible, the person would also do grocery shopping and a full meal preparation for the week, ideally twice per week if possible. If desired, we can break these tasks up in that one person could do the cooking, and the other person could do the complex organisational tasks. Note, you must have good English and be able to problem solve effectively. The rate is negotiable and will be based on the person's competence and efficiency with the tasks.


Richard went above and beyond to help me, even helping out with tasks I had forgotten about. He also had a very positive attitude and friendly demeanor. I would highly recommend him for cleaning, home assistance, and support work - he is awesome!

Meal preparation and planning (Dairy & Peanut Free, Low FODMAP)
$500
Officer VIC 3809, Australia
10th Jan 2025
I am looking for someone to assist me in meal planning and preparation that caters to my dietary requirements. I am allergic to all dairy products and peanuts (tree nuts are ok) and try to be low FODMAP as possible for gut health. If I could sign up to something like Lite n Easy, I would but I can't. I need to get back to a healthier weight and lifestyle and someone to take the above in consideration, plan the meals and ideally prep them so it is really clear to me what I eat and when, this would be life saving. I know I have put down Officer but I am also available in Caulfield as well. Price is negotiable


Tabatha was a cut above the rest who responded to my Airtasker request. She was great at communicating what was included in the offer and kept me in the loop at every stage and was able to cater to my specific dietary requirements. I have yet to try the meals but they look delicious!
