A Cook for baby care plays a crucial role in ensuring that the baby and family receive nutritious, safe, and age-appropriate meals. While the primary responsibility of a cook is meal preparation, when working with families with infants or young children, the role extends to preparing special meals tailored to the baby's dietary needs as well as cooking for the entire household. The cook must also be knowledgeable about food safety, allergies, and the specific nutritional needs of growing children.
