“I don’t know where we’d be without her!
As a mom of two very active kids and working full time, I was struggling to keep up with the normal goings on of a home, especially cooking for my family. Fast food was quickly becoming a staple in our daily routine and when it wasn’t fast food we were reaching for prepackaged meals that were quick to put together but not very nutritious.
And then I found Amy. Having her come into our home and cook nutritious and delicious meals for us has been a total game changer.
We work together to create a meal plan that fits my family's hectic schedules and satisfies all.
Now, instead of asking for McDonald’s every day, my son asks for Amy’s chicken and dumpling soup and banana chocolate chip muffins."
About me
Hi, I'm Amy Marshall!
I'm a registered dietitian, private cook, Winnipeg mother to two and owner of the Supper Squad!
Growing up, I always had an interest in cooking. As a child, watching and learning to cook from the matriarchs in my family always brought me joy.
As a teenager, I was fascinated by cooking shows on the Food Network. Recently, I filmed two cooking segments on CTV news - it felt like a full circle moment!
Heading into university, I found my niche in nutritional sciences - an intriguing mix of human physiology and nutrition, food science, food service, and food preparation.
During my studies, I enjoyed working in a commercial kitchen where I gained skills in cooking a variety of foods on a large scale.
My work as a dietitian has allowed me to develop skills in supporting people with diverse and complex needs. I help people discover ways nourishing their bodies in a way that is manageable and enjoyable.
Cooking for my own young family has been a learning curve as well!
I use all of my skills and experiences to support others who struggle with the overwhelm and demands of kitchen tasks.
Let's chat to see if my team and I can meet your needs in the kitchen.

Hi, I'm Ashleigh Hoeppner!
I'm a Registered Dietitian and I love to cook!
While I normally spend work days in a hospital setting, I am excited to spend some time in homes, helping to support people and families. For me, getting to provide help and lend a hand, is really bringing my message of health full circle. I can tell people how to eat until I'm blue in the face, but if they don't have the ability or capacity to actually do it, are we achieving health? Or are we unintentionally making people feel guilty? I want to bring the help!
While I'm not in the kitchen, I am chasing around my three young boys. They keep me on my toes and have humbled me in more ways than one. Just because I've studied nutrition doesn't make me a superhero in getting kids to eat all the things. There is no magic formula, but patience and exposure can help even the most selective eaters to eventually want to try new things. I hear you, feeding kids is HARD!
I look forward to spending time growing and learning together in how to best care for your needs.

Hi, I’m Darcy Winter!
I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with my mom when I was growing up, where most of it was at home in the kitchen. She was always cooking and I was always curious. When I was a teen I asked her to teach me how to make stir fry, as I wanted to learn some important skills before moving out. Learning the basics at that age gave me the ability to expand my knowledge and get more adventurous with different foods and recipes.
Now a husband and father of 2 teen girls, I’ve been able to cultivate my cooking skills over the years to satisfy our families changing tastes and needs. I’ve been lucky to work from home for the past 10 years, which has allowed me to provide my family with daily lunches and hot dinners. Some of my staples are pizza from scratch, crepes, breads & muffins, chili & soups of all kinds. Recent hits are sheet pan dinners & sushi bowls.
I am very comfortable in the kitchen and am adept at learning new recipes while making adjustments & substitutions as needed in order to turn out tasty meals.
I look forward to working with families and exploring menu options to help them find their new favourites!
Squad Member: Fran
Hi, I’m Frances Dyck!
I have been surrounded by homegrown, quality foods my whole life. Growing up on an organic vegetable farm gave me not only a deep appreciation for whole foods but also hands-on experience in how to cook with them. Much of what I know about cooking comes from my mom and brother, who are both incredible chefs and my biggest inspirations in the kitchen.
I love exploring new recipes, reimagining classic dishes, and tailoring menus to fit the unique tastes and dietary needs of my clients. Cooking with whole, high-quality ingredients is at the heart of what I do, and I enjoy getting creative to craft meals that are as nourishing as they are flavorful. My goal is to bring a personalized touch to every plate, making mealtime effortless and enjoyable so you can savor every bite without the stress of cooking.
For me, food is more than just sustenance—it’s an experience, a way to bring people together, and an opportunity to create something truly special. I look forward to sharing my love of cooking with you and creating meals that bring comfort, joy, and connection to your table.
Squad Member: Geri
Hi, I’m Geri Schreyer!
I studied food science and worked in the food safety field at a large food processor for about 8 years before becoming a stay at home mom with my 2 kids.
Now, I help manage our family businesses, including a small farm!While at home, I expanded my garden and loved being able to cook fresh and delicious food using ingredients from the garden. I enjoy experimenting in the kitchen to find family favourites.
During this time at home, I also increased my kitchen skills to include food preservation skills such as dehydrating and safe home canning.The world of food has always been interesting to me. I loved reading recipe books and trying new recipes, even as a preteen and teenager. That love of food led me to working with food, in some capacity, most of my adult years!
Squad Member: Lori
Hi, my name is Lori !
Food has always been a big part of my life, I learned to cook early in
life by watching my mother. Recipe books were her inspiration but the
dish was never complete without mom adding her own special touch!
When I became a mom, the desire to provide a healthy well balanced
diet for my own family, and the importance of having a few minutes to
connect with my family around the dinner table became my priority
and focus.
Through the different seasons of life I have experimented with
different cooking styles to meet the needs of my growing family, from
traditional meat and potatoes, vegetarian, and high protein meals to
healthy snacks and ready to grab food on the run, I’ve made it all!
I look forward to helping you ease the chaos of life by taking the
craziness of trying to find the time to prepare a healthy meal for your
family off your plate :) and providing you with the opportunity to enjoy
your dinners and time spent connecting with those important to you!

Squad Member: Sonya
Hi, I'm Sonya Jantz!
My love for cooking and good food has come from years of experience making food for my own family, for guests at our family-run Bed & Breakfast, and for families that I have the honour of supporting as a postpartum Doula.
I have learned so much and enjoy sharing a kitchen with my mom, sisters, friends, co-parent; who have imparted their kitchen wisdom and skills on to me.
One of my greatest joys comes from preparing healthful and appetizing meals for the families that I support. It can be difficult and stressful to muster the time, energy and inspiration to prepare nourishing food when there are so many other demands on your time and energy. I've been there! And yet eating nourishing food is so vital to our health and wellness.
I am known for pouring over cookbooks in search of inspiring, new ideas, and continually learning and experimenting with how to optimize nutrition and flavour in the food that I grow, prepare, eat and share!
It is fun and interesting to collaborate with clients to come up with menu ideas that they are excited about.
I am grateful for this opportunity to help ease the load for busy families by creating beautiful and nutritious food for their enjoyment and sustenance.
