meet Taylor!

“Hello I am Taylor, a creative at heart + mama of two littles. I have worked 10+ years in various admin/bookkeeping roles within the oil and gas industry. Then about 5 years ago I was really craving a more creative type of work and was presented the opportunity to take on a wedding rental inventory that I was helping out with (which I currently still have). Buuut as I'm sure you know, that is very seasonal business and with littles still at home I thought this would be a fun way to fill create a more consistent income and potentially connect my skills from my administrative roles + the wedding industry into one and help other small business.”
Fun Facts:
I looooove a slow morning (deck coffee in the summer - does it get any better than that)
I have recently become OBSESSED to Arbonne fizz + greens (if you have not tried them, they are sooooo good, total game changer this last PP season)
Summer is my absolute fave - playing in the garden, attempting cut flowers, camping, backyard fires -- it all fuels my soul
I love celebrating all things big and small...and usually find myself going over the top (atleast some may say) to create a memorable + cozy space. We love a good aesthetic setup okaaaaay... even if it's for a 2 year olds bday 🤣

meet Jennifer!
jenniferbk.va@gmail.com
“Hello! I'm Jennifer. Lover of the forest and all things whimsy. My fiancé and I live on the cutest little piece of land outside of Stony Plain, AB, that we are slowly filling with gardens and chickens, dogs and free ranged children. Next we are hoping to bring home a small flock of milking sheep! We also run a small construction company that I do the bookkeeping for.
I hold a business diploma in finance which landed me a job at a non-profit wildlife research institute in Hinton, AB. I did administrative duties for the GM and the accountant as well as the biologists I worked with. After this, I graduated as a nurse and spent most of my career on an orthopedic surgery unit where we fixed up fractured hips. Later on, I took interest in a more holistic approach to health which lead me to getting education in that world as well.
Now, here I am today, starting a new career path after having my second child. I am coming full circle back into the business world. But this time with more life experience and skills to offer! As you can see I like to learn, and I am looking forward to gaining more experience as a VA and bookkeeper.”
Fun Fact:
One thing that I absolutely love is my garden. One day I stumbled upon a regenerative gardening course and it was an instant gut feeling that I had to take it. Since then I have fallen in love with learning about the soil food web, making my own compost, growing my own food and creating whimsical flower gardens for my children to play in.
