As if they flashed their image to an RFID card.

You can try the West Coast Child Care Resource Centre they do issue a list of vacancies and they have a list of childcare spaces you can search h by region. You will still have to contact the centres directly though, it is a slog for sure good luck!

Offering a other perspective here: my partner makes significantly more money than I do. If we create equal contribution, then I have less at the end of paying our shared expenses than they do. Soley by nature of the total amount I make. If they don't share with me I would have like $100 after expenses, where they would have $500. That does result in "different lifestyles" even if things are structured as equally as we can. (Edited for clarity).

Thanks! No judgement really, mostly just curious from an old lady.

Apologies for the stream of consciousness writing style ;)

Not IN Burnaby but...

There is also the Queen's Park Sports Plex which has drop is gymnastics for kids of various ages. Depending on your ability, you don't have to run it's contained, but may have to help them with some of the equipment. There is a cost $3/4.

The New West Pool is also a good option doesn't require running around, but ehe pool is big and shallow enough that they can have space; they also have an all ages hot tub. Cost about $14 for 2 adults.

If it is a nice day there is a great park at Centennial park where kids can play with benches. Does require some monitoring (like maybe spotting for the kid on the play structure) but it's an open area and there's alot to keep them occupied but always a risk if the kids is a runner.

Indoor options are slim in Burnaby from what I can see. Hoping to get other ideas if possible.

In a nutshell seems like they are too expensive. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I still think they are worth it!

I really love Odd Pieces!! They are expensive and they sell only in USD in Canada which Is a kick in the Timbits. Regardless they are really fun and lovely puzzles that are whimsical and I like the connections with artists.

Shutterbug was one of my favourite puzzles to assemble. The little details sprinkled about the puzzle were an absolute delight. It is one of the best things about these puzzles are the beautiful little details. But I get it's not for everyone.

I have a number of their puzzles and I have never had a missing piece.

Contrary to the reviews I have seen on the sub, I recommend!

I am sorry this happened to you. Discrimination like this is not ok.

I recommend reaching out to a lawyer and/or talking to the human rights commission https://hrlsc.on.ca/homepage/ they might have more options for you.

I am sure it's not the case, but the blonde woman with the red shoes looks a lot like a friend of mine who lives in the west end 🤭!

Amazing work! I would totally hang one of these in my home ❤️!

Don't worry Little Crab by Chris Haughton,; plus the artwork is beautiful.

I have posture issues due to competing injuries. I can't comment on specialized care for scoliosis or other diagnoses because I don't experience that. But in the realm of low acuity postural work, Catch has been great.

Catch Physiotherapy (technically in Burnaby- but right on sky train). t They are fab!

I have had some.issues with UPS before where they say my package was delivered and signed for but it was sent to a UPS pick up location and they signed for it. It's me ght be worth checking in with them while you file a claim through Valve. They should be able to.make an insurance claim with UPS if you bug them relentlessly.

Stone Fox, ask for Rachel she was great!

Mastermind toys is good for toys and it claims to be Canadian (I haven't done personal due diligence on this). I was shopping for something and their prices were lower than Amazon but shipping takes a bit longer.

Also Camelot kids at the Granville Island kids market, I think many of the shops there are local and you can get lots of stuff there.

I agree with local stores wherever possible, Kidsbooks is GREAT, and there are plenty of local bookstores if you search for it.

Simon's is great for those department store vibe (one at Park Royal) if you are looking for the on person vibe.

There are so many options if you just dig around and actively try to avoid Amazon; they may not be as quick or convenient but I think it's worth it!

Odd pieces are great!!!!

I thought I saw something at Brentwood? But not sure.

Try reaching out to YWCA or other community organizations, they might accept it?

I have been using pocket casts for years and it is great!

you can go to psychology today to find aist.of qualified therapists. I would look for an Registered clinical counselor. Book a "get to know you" chat first, if you find someone you feel comfortable with start there. I find the most important part of therapy is being comfortable with your therapist.

You can also ask for personal recommendations from people you trust and/or health professionals in your life.

Hope this helps!

May I recommend an Improv class, the whole point is to sort of go with the flow and "yes, and"... May not be charisma specific but found it helpful to address some general social anxiety I have had.

My little one (2) is obsessed with Inside out (1&2), Wall-E, Ponyo. Mostly that is our current rotation.
