Our Story
Raising my daughters in Alberta to be closer to the mountains (but born and raised in the suburban outskirts of Toronto), my husband and kids would say I’m the queen of using every little occasion as an excuse to book another trip! No trip is complete for me without a room with a gorgeous view, grabbing a local pizza after a day of exploring, and checking out a local playground to let my kids go wild.
Travel Style
From weekend staycations to family getaways, I love discovering the best family-friendly (and dog-friendly) hotels, unique experiences, and delicious eats Canada has to offer. My husband and I have spent over a decade exploring top cities across Canada and love a balance of light adventure and luxury—seeing some of the most breathtaking views this country has to offer before settling into a comfortable boutique hotel for the night. Even though it takes a little more planning and looks a little different, we now do it with our two kids (and I help other families do the same)! From knowing which hotels that have a mini fridge (not just a beverage cooler) to keep your little ones’ milk and snacks safe to recommending local eats you’ll love and your toddlers will eat—you can rest assured that I’ve been there and will take care of the little details (even the ones you may have never thought of) so you have an unforgettable getaway with your kids!

Just an hour south of Banff sits a small mountain town called Canmore, Alberta, a secret gem for many locals. With fewer crowds, more affordable accommodations, and slow-living vibes, Canmore is the perfect getaway for a relaxing weekend to reset and reconnect.

Making Walt Disney World Magical With a Baby Under 2
