How Much Is A Homemaker Worth?

The life of a homemaker is one that includes an endless amount of demands and to-dos. Depending
on the size of the home and family, the position of homemaker can go well beyond the usual nine to five.
We examined some of the tasks that a homemaker might do to find out how much his or her services would
net as individual professional careers. We only take into consideration tasks which have monetary values and
use the lowest value for each calculation.

Private Chef
Meal preparation is one of the major tasks of most homemakers. From breakfast to dinner, there is plenty of meal
planning and cooking to be done. The American Personal Chef Association reports that its personal chefs make $200
to $500 a day. Grocery shopping is another chore that needs to be factored in. A homemaker must drive to the
supermarket, purchase the food and deliver it to the home. Grocery delivery services charge a delivery fee of $5 to $10.

Total cost for services: $1,005 per five day work week x 52 weeks = $52,260 per year.
