The Best Scents for a Good Night’s Sleep

April 3, 2017 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

Creating the perfect conditions for a good night’s sleep involves calming and preparing all five senses. We turn off the lights and we quiet our rooms.

January 11, 2017 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

Long days, long commutes and after school activities can create mealtime chaos. Later meals usually leads to later bedtimes, tired kids and cranky parents.

It’s winter here in Toronto and that means I’m gravitating towards warm and hearty one-dish meals. I’m sharing another go-to 3 Night Meal Plan using pork tenderloin leftovers that relies on very little prep and very few ingredients.

Many parents told me that they waited to reach out because they thought it was too late to make improvements to their child’s sleep habits.

Lego Table

July 31, 2016 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

It’s officially the middle of Summer and the boys have been home with me for most part. Having a dedicated space for them to have some quiet time has been critical for everyone’s sanity. Just before school was over I took some time to carve out a small Lego table for them. This nook has undergone a number of transformations since we first moved into this house almost 10 years ago.
