Participants may initiate projects or activities in the following areas:
·         waste-reduction measures

Childcare needed:  We are looking for someone special to share their love, compassion and guidance with an amazing 3 year old, and newborn to come in December.  We are located in Riverview and are looking for a nanny to come to our home.  My husband and I run a business and I work part time at the business.  I need approximately 30 hours per week.  We are looking for someone who is excited to explore the world with a busy pre-schooler and the baby to come, must be loving, responsible, caring, patient and gentle.  A suitable car and clean drivers licence is needed, we will provide a car seat and gas money.  I would like someone who would be comfortable taking her to and participating in activities such as gymnastics or Kindermusic etc.  She loves to be outside in the summer and winter so trips to the park, wading pool and playing in the snow are expected.  She loves books, arts & crafts and imaginative play.  We have a dog that goes to work every day but he might be around a little bit.  If interested please contact Patti Backman at patti@phoenixrecycling.ca, home: 452-5788, work: 222-5096.
