"Welcome to my kitchen, where the whisk is my brush and the cutting board is my canvas!"

Hello! I’m Kayla, a private chef with 15 years of experience in the world of pastries, baking, and culinary arts. From crafting intricate desserts to exploring a variety of global cuisines, my passion for food knows no bounds. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of hosting workshops and cooking classes for people of all ages, blending my love for creative arts with my deep passion for nourishing food.

​

Born and raised in Manitoba, my family and I made the move to Alberta, where we’re raising our daughters in the heart of the greater Calgary area. Cooking has always been at the center of my life, thanks to the wonderful memories I made in the kitchen with my Nana and Mom from a young age. It’s a gift I hold dear, and now I get to share it with others.

​

Alongside my culinary expertise, I’m a Doula & Holistic Health Practitioner with 11 years of experience. This background has shaped my approach to cooking, emphasizing whole foods, local, in-season produce, and high-quality ingredients that nourish the body and soul. Whether it’s a cozy family meal or a refined dinner party, I create nutrient-dense, comforting dishes that not only taste incredible but also fuel your body with the best that nature has to offer.

​

My mission goes beyond cooking...it's about helping others make lasting memories in the kitchen. I believe that food is a language of love, and through the workshops I host, I aim to teach children, teens, and adults the skills to create their own culinary memories, passing them on through generations.

​

When I’m not cooking, you’ll find me enjoying the great outdoors with my family, hiking in the mountains, cozying up for a family night or dancing to music with my husband and kids. Life is a beautiful journey, and I cherish every moment of it - especially the moments spent with loved ones around a shared meal.

​

I truly hope to meet you soon and share my love for food, creativity, and connection. Together, we can craft more than just meals—we can create memories that will last a lifetime!
