I love to cook; it is definitely my favorite hobby! I cook dinner for my family every night, as well as for family events, and I haven't received a single complaint about the food. I wanted to maybe pursue my dream of being a chef as far as I could while still in high school and see if anyone else would like to try my dishes! I don't have any professional experience with cooking, considering I am still in high school. However, I have been told by a large number of people that my food is really good, and that I should become a chef. So why not start now?

My name is Jessica and I went to nursing school when I was 19 at Conestoga. After my first year, I was still not completely sure if that's what I wanted to do with my life. I kept thinking back to all the great times and things I learned the summer before when I worked at the military base as a cook. It was the best job I ever had, and I was able to make money doing something I loved. Since then, I have worked in a few fast food places as well as some noteworthy establishments that have helped mold me into who I am today and what I have managed to learn and accomplish. I don't always know what I'm doing or how it will turn out, but for the most part, if you follow the recipe, you're off to a good start. My little family sure loves my cooking, and that's what keeps me going! Love to cook. I cook with love, and that's why it tastes so good. If you enjoy what you do, you will do it well. I went to nursing school, but it was not a good fit for me. This is my calling.

I'm Valezka, a Venezuelan residing in Guelph with three years cooking experience. I specialize in Canadian and Latin American cuisine, baking, pastry making, kitchen upkeep, and dishwashing. I can also curate personalized menus according to your tastes. I am well-versed in kitchen hygiene and ready for a police check if required. I am available for evening shifts from Monday to Friday, and mornings on Saturdays. Being bilingual in English and Spanish, I ensure clear communication. Although I prefer a part-time, live-out position, I'm flexible as a private, family cook or pastry chef. I am a non-smoker unable to relocate or travel, but excited to begin on April 7th, 2025, offering my flavor-filled culinary skills to your home. As a cooker, I've had the pleasure of cooking for families, couples, and even solo diners who just want a break from their own kitchen duties. It's amazing how a simple meal can bring people together, and I've been fortunate enough to be a part of many special moments. From birthday bashes to cozy dinner parties, I've seen it all. My clients trust me to whip up a storm in their kitchen, and I take pride in delivering dishes that not only taste amazing but also look like they belong on a magazine cover. It's a thrill to see the look of delight on their faces when they take that first bite, knowing I've made their day a little brighter. And let's be honest, I get to cook up a storm and try out new recipes all the time - it's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it!

As a chef, my hobbies often revolve around my passion for food and creativity in the kitchen. I love experimenting with new recipes and flavors, constantly pushing boundaries to create unique dishes. Baking is another joy of mine, especially when it comes to crafting pastries and breads from scratch. Outside the kitchen, I enjoy gardening, growing my own fresh herbs and vegetables to use in my cooking. I also have a keen interest in food photography, capturing the beauty of a well-plated dish. Traveling is something I deeply enjoy, as it allows me to explore different cuisines and learn about various cultures through their food. Additionally, I take pleasure in sharing my knowledge by teaching cooking classes or hosting workshops. These hobbies not only fuel my creativity but also deepen my connection to the culinary world. In my one year of working experience as a cook, I have honed my skills in table setting, baking, and creating menus tailored to the preferences of my employers. I am knowledgeable in modern cooking techniques, maintain high sanitary standards, and have experience in catering and sushi preparation. I specialize in cooking vegetarian and Indian cuisine, and I am looking for a part-time position as a private/personal cook or cook for childcare/school. With my availability spanning all days of the week and a willingness to relocate, I am ready to start immediately and bring my passion for cooking to a new opportunity.
