A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Chloe and I am 20 years old. I love children and have always been interested in developmental psychology and nutrition. The initial years of one's life sets a blueprint for their adult life. It's very important to set healthy habits, mental health, and overall perspectives at a younger age. It's the building blocks to a happy and healthy life.
I'm currently a manager at a resteraunt in bexley. I love prepping healthy food for the community. I've been there for about 2.5 years. I can adapt to food sensitivities as well. I have an egg, milk, and wheat intolerance. I grew up eating and cooking with them, but have recently cut them out for my health. That being said, I hold immense respect for other people's belongings, space, personal beliefs, standards, and so on. Everone has a right to live their lives the way they see fit, so I will adapt to whatever you need.
