Meal Preparation

Daily Living Support

Eating well without the struggle

Good nutrition matters. But when cooking is difficult, painful, or unsafe, a lot of people end up relying on takeaway, pre packaged meals, or skipping meals. Not because they want to, but because preparing food has become one more barrier.

Aamoon Care provides NDIS funded meal preparation support. Whether you need someone to cook for you, someone to cook with you, or help learning to cook independently, we build the service around your needs, dietary requirements, and preferences.

What meal preparation includes

Our service covers menu planning, grocery shopping, food storage, full meal preparation and cooking, assisted cooking where you participate, clean up, bulk meal prepping, and food safety monitoring.

Cultural and religious food preferences are fully respected. Halal, kosher, vegetarian, vegan, and any other dietary practice will be followed by your support worker.

Building cooking skills

For participants who want to develop cooking abilities, our workers take a teaching approach. Starting with simple recipes and basic kitchen skills, then progressing to more complex meals as confidence grows. This is particularly useful for younger participants transitioning toward independent living.

NDIS funding

Meal preparation support is funded under Core Supports in your NDIS plan, under Assistance with Daily Life. Contact our team to discuss how this service fits with your plan and budget.
