Welcome to The Hummingbird Collective
Holistic Virtual Assistant | Online Business Management | Hummingbird Finance | Well-Being

Thoughtful Business Support, Rooted in Well-being
The Hummingbird Collective was created as a space where clarity, organisation, and calm meet. Founded by Lorraine Flood, the Collective offers Virtual Assistant / Business Support services, Online Business Management and Financial Administration support — all delivered with a deep commitment to balance, purpose, and well-being.
I support conscious entrepreneurs, creative thinkers, and small business owners who are passionate about what they do, but need trusted, organised, and strategic support behind the scenes.
At the heart of my work is a mission to give you back your time, ease the mental load, and help your business run smoothly—so you can focus on what matters most. Whether it’s streamlining operations, managing your day-to-day admin, or creating systems that support growth, I work in partnership with my clients to bring a sense of structure and peace of mind.
My approach is collaborative, intentional, and tailored—grounded in mutual respect, integrity, and an unwavering belief that well-being is essential to sustainable success.
