Zoya Kukushkina herself is still quite a child. But she is already trying to help other children left without parents to find their family.
If not for Tatyana Kukushkina, no one knows how the fate of this cute blonde girl would have developed. Having once seen Zoya’s video questionnaire, Tatyana realized: this is her soul mate. And the baby’s life changed forever.
“My husband and I, like all married couples, wanted children. At the time Zoe appeared in our family, we had two children, a daughter and a son. It so happened that we did not succeed in getting pregnant, but we were still ready for parenting, we wanted children, ”says Tatiana.

She registered in groups on social networks, where potential parents are introduced to children in absentia. It was in one of these groups that Zoya’s profile surfaced in the feed.
“An incredibly charming little girl smiled at me from the monitor screen, told me something, but I didn’t hear anything, I just looked and understood that she was my daughter! I dialed the number indicated in the questionnaire, and everything started spinning, it was a long way home, and for four years now we have been absolutely happy together, ”recalls Zoya’s mother.
The girl in the new family did not even have to settle down: the baby turned out to be so sweet, so kind that everyone just fell in love with her. And she answered with love.
“Thanks to her sociability and charisma, she perfectly joined the team in the garden, and at school there are no problems with communication,” continues Tatiana.
And then miracles began. Zoe’s extraordinary appearance was noticed by a recruiter of a modeling agency. The baby turned out to be incredibly photogenic. The girl is only 8 years old, and she has already managed to appear for the advertising of the Disney brand, the children’s collection TVOE, participated in the show of the shoes of the company “Rendezvous”, in the shows of the Fashion Week in Moscow. But her most important victory is that Zoya became the face of the luxury European brand Junona Fashion House. For more than one season, she has been participating in advertising filming in different parts of Europe.
One would expect dizziness from success. But, fortunately, it did not happen. On the contrary, Zoya wondered how lucky she was to have a large loving family. And other children still live in orphanages. Maybe, if future parents see them, they will also find a home of their own?
“Then we had the idea to organize a charity event with the support of mothers of model children,” says Tatiana Kukushkina. “Famous people supported us on social networks, and we realized that we were in our place!”
No sooner said than done. Tatiana and Zoya created a collection of clothes under the Zoyakukushkina brand. All proceeds from the sale of this collection will be used to create video questionnaires for orphans – they are filmed by the Change One Life Foundation. The premiere screening has already taken place in Moscow.
“Zoya is very proud of her first collection! She drew all the drawings with such love, chose the colors in which her heroines were dressed. It turned out very cool! ” – says Tatiana.
Yes, the baby took an active part in creating clothes. She generally loves to draw, and the fact that she has been working in the fashion industry from an early age leaves its mark on her work.
“It all comes down to sketches of some clothes, beautiful colorful girls with butterflies, sweets or balloons, these girls are happy. I’m sure this is a reflection of her mood, her inner world. While she is drawing such colorful cute pictures, my husband and I are sure that we are doing everything right, ”Tatiana smiles.
By the way, who to become in the future, the young designer herself has not yet decided.
“For now, she’s seriously going to become the world’s first female cowboy,” says my mother.
“Everything is ahead of her. Her dreams will surely come true! ” – Mom is sure.
