About Me

At Hawthorn Family Company, I provide flexible, all-around support to busy families and households.

I originally studied Child & Youth Work prior to completing my degree and worked as a residential cleaner while in school. After spending 11 years in recruitment, I decided to make a career change and return to childcare as a nanny, a field I’ve always been passionate about and where I felt I could use my strengths to make a meaningful difference for families. Through that work, I saw firsthand that many families needed more flexible support than traditional childcare and housekeeping could provide.

That experience led me to launch Hawthorn Family Company, a family-focused business offering practical, all-around support for busy households. Every family and household is different, so I provide flexible support based on what you need.

I take pride in being a reliable extra set of hands that families can trust in their homes. Whether you need ongoing help or support with a one-time project, I’m here to make things a little easier.

Why My Pricing Works for Families Like Yours

At Hawthorn Family Co., I know that finding reliable, trustworthy, and high-quality in-home support can feel overwhelming. My pricing is designed with Toronto families in mind balancing fairness, transparency, and value.

1. Premium Service for Busy Families

Families in Toronto expect more than basic help. With my services, you are not just getting cleaning or laundry. You are getting a trusted family assistant who pays attention to the details, cares about your comfort, and supports your peace of mind.

2. Flexible Options That Fit Your Needs

Weekly packages provide consistent, reliable support while giving you the flexibility to choose optional add-ons such as extra laundry, meal prep, errands, or organizing projects, so your services are tailored specifically to your family’s needs.

3. Transparent and Competitive Rates

In Toronto, home support services often range from $35-60/hour. My rates fall comfortably within this range and reflect professional, high-quality service delivered with discretion and care. Flat-rate ranges account for differences in home size, clutter, or extra work required. After a brief home assessment, I provide a specific quote within the range. Add-ons are flat rates, making it easy for you to know the total cost upfront.

4. Built for Peace of Mind

Recurring services are designed to keep your home running smoothly with minimal effort on your part. From laundry that is always folded to spaces that are consistently tidy, your home stays organized and calm, giving you the peace of mind that everything is in good hands so you can focus on your family.
