The only one — until now

Emily saved mothers one meal at a time. Now she needs you.

For five years, Emily Montague was the only Certified Sitting Month® Chef — finding, attracting, closing, and cooking for postpartum mothers entirely by hand. She watched exhausted, depleted, often depressed new moms come back to life on warming, healing food.

There was only ever one of her. So she built AnnaMae to do everything she did manually — and now she’s ready to hand the whole system to certified chefs, one exclusive territory at a time, so she can reach and help far more mothers than one person ever could.

Your business, run beside you — AnnaMae keeps the recipes, website and bookings moving while you nurture.
"I can only cook for so many mothers myself. AnnaMae lets me clone the whole thing — and hand it to a chef in the next town who’s ready to launch."
— Emily Montague, Founder · The Sitting Month®

Questions

About the certified chef business

What exactly do I get when I become a certified chef?

You leave the retreat certified as a Sitting Month® Chef and Postpartum Nurturer — and you receive your own AnnaMae AI customized to your voice, geo-location, and area of expertise, a website built to dominate your market area, a mobile click-to-text booking line, secure client registration, the full Sitting Month® recipe library, the cookware essentials of the method, and AnnaMae’s scheduling, fulfillment, and referral engine.

How much do I earn per mother?

You receive an upfront, one-time fee of no less than $3,000 per mother you serve — paid before the first meal is cooked. AnnaMae keeps your calendar full through reviews and referrals, so it’s built to repeat.

What does AnnaMae actually do for me?

AnnaMae finds, attracts, and closes new moms from your website, books video calls with you, sends the secure sign-up portal, gathers each mom’s plan and substitution-food needs, schedules delivery, pickup, or on-site cooking, and follows up after The Sitting Month® for reviews and referrals — all by text, with no dashboards or logins for you.

What does "exclusive territory" mean?

Only one Certified Sitting Month® Chef launches per market area, so the mothers in your community are yours to serve and AnnaMae is optimized to dominate that geography. Once an area is claimed, it’s no longer available.

Do I need to be tech-savvy or run ads?

No. The whole point is that AnnaMae handles the technology, the website, the booking, and the follow-up. You focus on the cooking and the care — the sacred, human part only you can do.

Is delivery or on-site cooking required?

Either works. AnnaMae builds each mother’s plan with the option to have food delivered or cooked fresh on-site — and either way it’s prepared with the cookware essentials included in your retreat.
