Today, I have an informative interview to share with you that will show you how to become a cooking instructor and hold kid’s cooking classes. I recently had the chance to interview Jan Pinnington from Healthy Hands Cooking, who explains how this extra income opportunity may be a possibility for you.

In 2011, Jan realized that her children were ill-equipped in the kitchen and falling into unhealthy eating habits.

She started teaching her daughter how to cook, and eventually more and more children started coming to her home for cooking lessons. Some parents started putting money in Jan’s apron to cover food and time and she suddenly thought, “hmmmm…I wonder if I could turn this into a business?”

This eventually led to Jan launching Healthy Hands Cooking.

Healthy Hands Cooking is a movement to fight childhood obesity by empowering adults to teach children about nutrition and healthy cooking through entertaining and informative classes, camps, and birthday parties.

Healthy Hands Cooking is a self-paced cooking instructor certification program that can be completed from the comfort of home. This is a 11 module course that will help you to create your own cooking business with the correct licensing, permits, background checks, food safety, marketing, and more. [Read more…]
