The LifeGuard
My name is Paul Brando Tibaldo Chilopoulos IV
My name is Paul, and I’ve dedicated over a decade to protecting life in and around the water. I am an American Red Cross Certified Lifeguard Instructor, currently certified in Lifeguarding with CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers, First Aid, and Deep Water Rescue—all valid through 2027. I also hold the title of Ambassador for Water Safety, a distinction awarded for a lifelong commitment to aquatic safety and education.
I take deep pride in the responsibility of safeguarding lives. I believe every individual is precious—not just to the world, but to their family, friends, and community. That belief drives everything I do, whether I’m on duty as a lifeguard or training the next generation of rescuers. Teaching others how to respond in emergencies and become certified lifeguards is one of the greatest honors of my life.
With professional training from HappySwimmers, Daland Swim School, and Breakwater Aquatics, I bring real-world experience, trusted instruction, and unwavering care to every pool, event, and class I lead.

Client Testimonials
Christine K.
We hosted an end of school year party for the 4th grade class and lifeguards Paul and John were priceless in helping keep the children safe so the parents could mingle and catch up with each other. They were on their feet the entire party, circling the pool, calling out any unsafe behavior, while also allowing the kids to have FUN! After the party was over, our son said, "I bonded with Paul!
He's the best lifeguard EVER!" If that isn't a 5-star review, then I don't know what is.
Liam K.
We had an outstanding experience with Paul Chilopoulos as our lifeguard. From the moment he arrived, Paul was friendly, professional, and incredibly attentive. He struck the perfect balance of being watchful without ever feeling overbearing, and his calm, confident presence made us feel completely at ease - especially with infants and young children in the pool.
Paul was great with the kids, engaging with them in a warm and approachable way while always keeping a sharp eye on the water. His vigilance and professionalism gave all the adults peace of mind, allowing us to relax knowing everyone was in excellent hands.
Highly recommend Paul for any event - we'd work with him again in a heartbeat!

Paul Chilopoulos was communicative, professional, respectful, and friendly. He did a great job overseeing a deep pool at a party with 15-20 sets of parents and infants cycling in and out. When the pool had downtime he offered to skim it to keep it clean. Really great guy. Would hire again 10/10
