    Description

    Hi! I am a single mom of 3 little girls living in Collingwood Ontario. We speak mostly English and I am working on more French at home.

    The girls are 7 and under and a handful full of life! They love having more people to play with them Also, I am looking for extra help with household chores and taking care of the little one while I get my career launched again.

    We flow with lots of nature adventures in the Simcoe area as we have only been here for 1 year.

    With the right person in the mix, lots of learning and fun can be created :)

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are in the heart of Simcoe County that offers so much of Ontario, Canada's Northern small town country living. The girls and I are new to Collingwood so doing historical trips together would be wonderful. I am native of Quebec and French speaking in my roots, teaching the girls more specifically now so doing a full French immersion would be my ideal situation.

    I am versed in positive parenting practices and emotional freedom techniques which can bring depth to our exchange if that is of interest.

    We are clean eaters and happy to share our simple child friendly meals with others!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We have 3 bedrooms upstairs which only 1 is used for sleeping (co-sleeping).

    The basement has an extra very comfy bed but the one bathroom is upstairs.

    While our townhouse is small, we could discuss what best sleeping and personal belonging space would be best for our guest!

    We are waking distance from the heart of Collingwood's town so location location location !

    The girls and I eat 3 meals a day which we are happy to share with the workawayer. I tend towards a high protein diet and the girls are a bit picky although I love sitting down for healthy meals all together. I am happy to bring the workawayer food shopping with us to ensure that she has all that she needs too!

    Honey is a gentle and sweet Holland Lop bunny. She is social, cuddly and sometimes hops out in the yard with us. She likes her little cage and bed and also enjoys the girls' hugs.
