Constipation More Common than You Think

Constipation More Common than You Think

Constipation: let’s just say the word… CONSTIPATION. Constipation is uncomfortable and sometimes very painful. But there is more to it than just having a hard time passing stool. And no one learns more about bowel movements than a new parent. From the birth of their...

Natural Deodorants that Don’t Stink!

Natural Deodorants that Don’t Stink!

I know, I know, we are all skeptical of natural deodorants. We all want to kick our endocrine disruptors and nasty chemicals, but we also don't want to be smelling ourselves by lunch time! Since my early 20s, I have been using natural deodorants, with some brands...

August lake moments! 🐢🦞🐣🦌🏄🏼‍♀️😴Had a wonderful few days up at the cabin with the family. Tons of wildlife, getting on the water with the kids, practicing my diving (10/10 right?), chalk art, and picking a bounty of figs. We also happened to be up there during the Drag Races at the Sechelt Airport SCDRA which the kids all loved watching. Maybe we should compete next year KidStar Nutrients 😉#summer #lake #vacation #racing #animals ... See MoreSee Less

With Baseball season currently over… I decided to try something new. Can you tell I yearn for the batting cage? ⛳️🏌🏼‍♀️No lessons, no driving range sessions… just Jo and I trying not to get any balls in the bushes and equally trying to not get attacked by geese. I have to say: we both did a lot better than we thought we would, especially as the day went on. Also… can there be a 12-hole option? If you’re just here for a good time like we were, I would definitely recommend the Pitch and Putt at Stanley Park Vancouver Parks Golf and wrap up your session at Stanley Park Brewing just across the street for cold beverages and some delicious pizza. We tried a new thing, didn’t hit any geese, and we had a good time! Stay tuned for more of my golf journey, and if anyone has a recommended golf instructor in the Vancouver area, send me a message or tag them in the comments 💬🪿#stanleypark #pitchandputt #vancouver #golf ...

For many families, traditional childcare schedules don’t align with real life. Camps start after the workday begins. Preschool programs run for only a few hours. Waitlists are long. And somehow parents are expected to make it all work. The result? More stress. More juggling. More mental load. That’s why @sunhouse.agency has structured their services and programs around the realities of modern family life. Their outdoor school follows a school-day schedule, and their agency provides before and after-care support to help fill in the gaps that parents face every day. My fellow professional parents in Vancouver: if you haven’t heard about what Nicole and April do at Sunhouse Academy, you need to check them out immediately! Especially if you missed summer camp sign up… in January 😂 Babysitting and nanny services: sunhousebabysitting.ca/ Summer camp information: sunhousebabysitting.ca/summer-camp @sunhouse.camps #thefounderchat #sunhouseagency #nannying #babysitting #workhours ...
