A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Chloe Piszcz! I have been CPR and First Aid Certified, I worked as a lifeguard for a while, and I have about four years of experience in babysitting! I am very knowledgeable when it comes to common food allergies and intolerances such as gluten, dairy, and even food dyes if that's a concern.

I cook regularly and I am very good at making healthy and balanced meals! I am also extremely detail oriented and I am capable of cleaning, organizing, and doing lots of household chores! I grew up surrounded by lots of animals so I am also totally able to help care for pets and plants too!
