  Description

  Thank you for reading our page! We are multinational family living in Toronto, Canada. Our primary language spoken at home is English. However, my husband is fully bilingual (English and French). We have a love for languages, so our children attend a French speaking elementary school and (before the pandemic) they attended a Mandarin language school on weekends to learn that language. We are searching for a French-speaking person to join our family to help us with our children.
