Moth for ID (emergency)

Hello Folks!long time no see!
I've been to the woods and found this moth and caught it to photograph at home the day after, the thing is that it put many eggs, so I set ''her'' free and I stayed with the eggs, please can you help me ID it so I know how will I feed the caterpillars?
thanks in advance!
Have a lovely day!

Possibly a Chimney Sweeper Odezia atrata Larva green with dark lines on back feeds on Conopodium majus and other small umbellifer flowers
