Shayla, was raised in beautiful Salt Spring Island, BC and is still very much an island girl to the core. A natural caregiver, nurturer and empath, she always knew that Nursing was her life’s calling. ​ After receiving her Diploma in Practical Nursing 2003, she was lucky enough to begin a 20 year-long career working at St. Pauls hospital in downtown Vancouver. While at St. Pauls, she worked in most medical, and surgical wards before moving on to the Emergency Room at Mt St Joesphs Hospital. When the Pandemic hit, her perspective shifted and she knew she needed change deciding to leave bedside Nursing after a lengthly, and fulfilling career.

Craving a slower paced lifestyle, she resigned and moved her family from Port Moody to Summerland, in the south Okanagan. It was during the same time period that she decided to enter the exciting field of Nursing Aesthetics, which had been a passion of hers for many years receiving facials and various treatments starting just as a teenager.
