Greetings! My name is Olivia, and I want to welcome you to This West Coast Mommy!

I’m a social worker by trade, wife and mother by choice. I’m lucky enough to be married to my best friend, Chris, and together we’ve created the family I’ve always wanted. Tee was born in March 2010, and her little sister Kay entered the world in August 2012. Becoming a mother to two girls has been both the greatest and most challenging work of my life, and the inspiration for starting this website.

I love living here on the West Coast in our little slice of heaven with the Pacific Ocean on one side and the Coast Mountains on the other. I hope you’ll join me as I blog about our life here in beautiful British Columbia. I write about my family, living greener, natural parenting topics like cloth diapering and babywearing, things for families to see and do in Vancouver, and family travel. You’ll also find honest reviews, fun giveaways, paleo-friendly recipes, craft projects, geeky stuff, and whatever else interests me.

When I’m not taking photographs of my kids or writing late into the night, you can find me experimenting in the kitchen, ordering sushi rolls, watching 80s fantasy movies, or buried in a good book. 

To keep up with all the good stuff, be sure to stay connected with us on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, and Bloglovin’, or get the latest posts via email!

  • I like reading your blog, it seems to have a ‘west coast’ feel to it! I’m on the other side of CA, so, I don’t know much about the West Coast. Looking forward to reading more.
