Our Story

Why Puffin Services exists — and who it is for.

Across British Columbia, there are families navigating some of the most important moments of their lives — entirely alone. A new mother recovering from birth, with no family nearby to hold the baby while she sleeps. A senior spending days without hearing another voice. A newcomer to Canada, building a life in a place where everything is unfamiliar.

These are not rare stories. They are happening in every neighbourhood across BC. And for too long, the support these families needed simply did not exist — not in a way that was personal, accessible, and truly community-driven.

Puffin Services was created to fill that gap. Not as a corporation, not as a cold agency, but as a warm and genuine extension of the community itself. We believe care should feel like a neighbour showing up at your door — with a meal, a kind word, or a steady hand.

From postpartum care to senior companionship, from community matching to helping families navigate complex systems — Puffin Services is here for every stage of life. We are starting in the Fraser Valley because that is our home. But our vision reaches every corner of British Columbia.
