About MFS

I’m Christie, founder of My French Secretary.

I moved to France with my family as a young child, growing up in a peaceful village surrounded by nature, culture, and a new language I quickly came to love.

After returning to the UK in my late teens, I gained a deeper appreciation for the unique lifestyle and opportunities France offers.

With over a decade of experience in French administration and a strong background in customer service, I created My French Secretary to support others on their own journey to France.

I know how confusing and time-consuming French bureaucracy can be—especially when you’re unfamiliar with the language or system.

My goal is to take that pressure off, helping clients feel confident, informed, and free to enjoy their life in France.

I bring a bilingual, bicultural perspective, a problem-solving mindset, and a genuine passion for helping people settle in with ease.

Whether you're moving, buying property, or just need help navigating French paperwork, I'm here to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
