What do you employ staff for?

To teach the children how to cook.


Children don't go near the kitchens. That is the domain of the
domestic staff. You would have children on the lawn mowers would
you?

If it was good enough for Queen Victoria and Albert, it's good enough
for me. The princelings even had their own little wheelbarrows with
their initials in gold leaf, and collected their wages from the Head
Gardener at the end of the week. Her present Majesty does the cooking
at their beach hut. I'm afraid letting the children be waited on hand
and foot by the staff is really rather nouveau.
