Ways I fight germs year round: Low Tox Motherhood Family Photographer

Fighting germs and sickness is inevitable these days. I hear from a lot of my clients that it’s a cycle they would like to end. I can’t blame you. It’s everywhere! One of the best ways I fight all of the germs and keep my home and quality of air healthy is with Thieves and Thieves Household Cleaner. It kills 99.96% of all germs and 100% of mold. Pretty impressive and 100% all natural and plant based. The powerful oils that make up this blend are Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata and Rosemary. Here is some more info on the history of Thieves that dates back to the 15th Century!

Thieves is a NHP ( National Health Product) which means that it is registered by Health Canada as a safe, effective and high quality remedy. Our family uses it for the onset of sickness, to ward off germs, to clean our homes with and to keep the air in our homes clean.

Thieves is Young Living’s best seller and original to this beautiful company. Many people admit that they have heard about the powers of this oil/product before they learn about Young Living. It’s such an impressive and effective oil that Young Living has dedicated an entire line to cleaning products with Thieves.

Ways I like to fight germs in my home and in the studio is super easy. I use Thieves in my diffuser throughout the house and I use Thieves Household Cleaner for everything. It’s not just for floors and surfaces. It’s perfect for kitchen, laundry (thieves laundry soap), bathrooms, windows, mirrors, in the car and so much more! It’s such a powerful and affective product that Young Living has a whole line of cleaning products. If you are looking for more than just the cleaner, consider the The Thieves Home Starter Bundle is AMAZING. It’s so concentrated that everything can be split multiple times so that you get more for your dollar.

Life is precious and our loved ones mean everything to us right? I use Thieves to keep our immune systems healthy and for all that it does to keep the home healthy. Low Tox and all natural products are not all the same. It’s important to do your research. If you wanted to chat more, of course I am here to help you too.

If you are on the fence and thinking this is just another product, and what’s the hype all about? I highly encourage you to give it a try. Trust one who has tried just about everything. If you are local to me and interested, reach out. I will happily share this amazing product with you and your family.

Did you know that one bottle of Thieves Household Cleaner yields (29) 500ml spray bottles? It’s so cost effective and multifunctional. If you are thinking of making the switch to a more natural and healthy way of cleaning, Thieves is a natural powerhouse.

Plus it smells amazing! Seriously, check it out. One purchase that you will thank yourself for ;)

At the same time, Motherhood is also messy. As much as you plan for it, sometimes the unexpected arrises during their stages of growth that leave you exhausted and emotional. Speaking from someone who went through bad postpartum depression and years of meds. Fast forward a little… years ago a beautiful essential oil was introduced to me (well after mine had grown out of the baby stage) but I started using it during my Photography sessions and sharing it with my clients. I had a ton of messages and calls once they used it thanking me for saving their sanity lol.

Gentle Baby is a Blended oil is just that, single oils are mixed together to create a blend. Gentle Baby was designed specifically for expectant mothers and newborn babies. It’s comforting, soothing and relaxing. Helpful during pregnancy, birth and once baby arrives.

Gentle Baby helps with the following:

-stretch marks & wrinkles

-dry and chapped skin

-diaper rash

-colic

-fussy babies

-rashes

-stress

-gas

I wish I had this when my children were babies.. All those sleepless nights, pacing the house while rocking my baby to take away any discomfort and the stress could have been eliminated.

Since essential oils are so concentrated, a super easy way for moms to take them on the go is to create little rollerballs to use anywhere at any time. Gentle Baby (and any oil) can be mixed with a carrier oil (ie: jojoba, coconut, grape seed or V6 oil from Young Living) .

All Natural Motherhood & Baby Studio: Oshawa Maternity & Baby Low Tox Living Photography Studio

Being a new mom is pretty scary and overwhelming at times right? I mean, there is so much information thrown at you from day one and everyone and they're Auntie has some words of wisdom (or old wives tales) for you. Hee hee. And let’s not get started at the fake news online.

I’ll tell you one thing about Motherhood that isn’t scary though. Knowing you aren’t alone. Having a community of friends and family that you can trust and that genuinely care about you. Finding you tribe, person or people (whatever that looks like) is something we all need. We are social creatures and let’s face it. Life is so much better when you have a support system in place. Sharing what works, swapping recipes, going out for coffee/tea dates it’s the health, mental and wellness you and your family need. Because let me tell you, that first year goes by so fast!

When it comes to our children (and our own wellbeing) we only want the best. Making little improvements everyday to live a better, healthier quality of life is something I am very passionate about. Just like when I say you are welcomed into the studio, you are my family. I take care of you while you are here as if you were my own. If you’ve had a session with me you’ll know that rings true ;)

Before your arrive at the studio I run through a routine that I’ve been doing for years. Starting with a deep clean, removing all items from the studio. Floors are first, I use Young Living’s Thieves Household Cleaner. It’s all natural, plant based, ultra concentrated and non abrasive. I use it on all floors and surfaces, change table, high chair, door handles, toys etc. All throughout my home. No residue, no synthetic fragrances, no harsh chemicals and safe for children and pets too. Plus it smells heavenly, which aids in knowing that your experience is healthy, beautiful and welcoming for you and your little ones.

It gives me peace of mind as a mother and business owner that I am giving you the best service and experience you deserve. Low Toxic Living doesn’t have to mean a complete overhaul overnight. It’s making small changes to work towards a healthier, cleaner lifestyle. I’ve been using Young Living daily for the last 10 years and absolutely it. I share what works not only for me and my family, but because I know you and your family will love it too!

Oshawa Maternity Studio: Healthy Motherhood & Family Low Tox Living

Our Classic Maternity sessions are our most popular session with moms to be. Typically mom will come in by herself or with her husband/partner or SO. But every once in a while the whole family will join in on the celebration.

Our Classic Maternity sessions are our most popular session with moms to be. Typically mom will come in by herself or with her husband/partner or SO. But every once in a while the whole family will join in on the celebration.

And let me tell you, we have so much fun!

It fills my cup when young families come into the studio to celebrate important milestones with me. It’s such an honour! You’re experience, how I make you feel and the memories we document together really are the backbone of my business. And of course gorgeous timeless photographs for you and your loved ones to treasure.

One of the ways as a Business Owner I make this a staple of my service to you is ensuring you know that my home is healthy, cleans and welcoming for you and even your toughest critics.

Ever heard the saying mi Casa et su Casa? It’s true, I welcome you into my home and business studio as family. Kids and babies (and husbands too) quickly become at ease and comfortable. I’ve created a space that makes it easy for you to relax and be excited about our session. A HUGE part of this is peace of mind with how I clean my home and studio. My favourite and longtime love for Thieves Household Cleaner is hands down the best all natural and multipurpose go to product.

Young Living has over 600 products. Not just essential oils :) Their home cleaning products are the best and smell so amazing. Natural and clean, no harsh synthetic chemical scents/fragrances. You may have heard me talk about Thieves and the powerhouse oil/cleaner it is. Did you know that Thieves kills 99,96% of airborne germs and bacteria? Pretty impressive right?
