Frances, is looking for a child-carer in Fort st. john

A little about us:

Hi we are Frances and Andrew, and Addison. We are moving to Fort St. John this May and in search of a full-time nanny able to care for Addison. Frances will be starting her medical residency training this July and Andrew is currently in the military.

In our family we believe in respect, communication and empathy at the heart of our family values. We approach parenting in any situation from the perspective of connecting first with kindness, and then helping Addison to understand her emotions and modelling healthy ways for her to express herself. We believe in encouraging curiosity and letting Addison discover the world through experiences.
