Parkland in the Valley<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Parkland in the Valley in Quispamsis, N.B., something magical happens when toddlers and older adults come together. Children from the YMCA Child Care Centre regularly visit residents of Embassy Hall next door, creating bonds through simple, joyful play. For parents like Brittany Mason, a Registered Dietitian at Embassy Hall, she has peace of mind having her son close by while enjoying the occasional visit from him. Watching him light up the day for residents reshapes what it means to balance work, family, and community.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
