  • Description

    Description

    We live in a small town, walkable distance to many amenities (library, cafe's, climbing gym, stores, schools, etc.) with a view of the Chaleur Bay. I have three children, ages 6, 8 & 15. I'm a single mom. I currently teach second language remotely online. I am very interested in health & wellness and occasionally offer energy healing in our home. I am slowly working away at a few yoga courses in the hope to share this passion with children and community members who may be experiencing trauma. We have two cats: Brie & Onyx as well as one horse, Pixie, living in a boarding facility 10 minutes drive away from our place. I would love support around the house, with childcare, daily chores: dishes, sweeping, recycling/ garbage/ compost, cooking. & Participating in weekly chores : floor (vacuum/mop), bathroom. We look forward to hearing from you in the hope to share culture & friendship.
