Description
We live in a beautiful high rise condo in downtown Toronto, high above the city, with incredible views of Lake Ontario and the CN Tower. Our home is bright, comfortable and welcoming, and we’re a close-knit family who enjoy an active lifestyle.
We’re a family of four with two boys, aged 8 and 5. They’re energetic, curious, funny and full of personality! Our days tend to revolve around school, sports, activities and family time. Hockey is a big part of our lives, and we love keeping active, spending time outdoors and trying new things. There’s usually plenty of laughter and activity around our home!
We love where we live because we’re right in the heart of Toronto, close to the waterfront, beautiful parks and walking trails, cafés, restaurants, fitness studios and cultural attractions. You can enjoy a morning walk or run along Lake Ontario, explore the city’s many neighbourhoods, discover its food and arts scene, or simply take in the incredible views. Public transit is easily accessible, making it easy to explore the rest of the city.
Toronto is wonderfully multicultural, with something for everyone, and we think you’ll love the combination of vibrant city living and easy access to nature.
We don’t have any pets, so no furry family members to worry about! Most importantly, we hope to welcome someone who is kind, positive, responsible and enjoys being part of family life. We’d love for you to feel at home with us, experience Toronto and create some wonderful memories along the way. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Living with our family offers the opportunity to experience life in one of Canada’s most vibrant and multicultural cities. We’re located right in downtown Toronto, with excellent access to public transit, making it easy to explore the city and everything it has to offer.
You’ll have the opportunity to experience Canadian city living firsthand, discover Toronto’s diverse neighbourhoods, food, culture, festivals, sports and entertainment, and meet people from all over the world. The waterfront, parks, museums, cafés, restaurants and many of Toronto’s most popular attractions are all within easy reach.
As part of our family, you’ll also get a glimpse into everyday Canadian family life, from school routines and hockey practices to family activities and local traditions. We’re happy to share our favourite places, offer recommendations and help you discover the city.
We’d also love to learn about your culture, traditions, language, food and experiences. We see this as a two-way cultural exchange, where everyone has something to share and we can all learn from one another. -
Help
We’re looking for an enthusiastic, caring and responsible person to become part of our family and help with the day-to-day routines of our two boys, aged 8 and 5.
The main focus would be childcare and helping keep our household running smoothly. This would include helping the boys get ready for school in the mornings, assisting with breakfast and getting them out the door, school pick-ups in the afternoons, and taking them to their extracurricular activities.
We’d also appreciate help with homework, keeping the boys’ rooms and belongings organized, managing their laundry, and some light housekeeping to help keep our home tidy and organized.
We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with children, is proactive, dependable, organized and happy to get involved in family life. Ideally, you’d be comfortable taking initiative, keeping the boys engaged and helping create a positive, structured and fun environment. -
