What started out as an entry level position after her husband was posted to Petawawa in the military, has turned into a long and successful career. Lapierre says she didn’t really know what she wanted to do when she and her husband arrived in the Ottawa Valley. She started as a volunteer with the PMFRC. It was that time where she found out how much she enjoyed being in causal care. Carrie tells myFM that her favorite part of the her job is providing a space that is fun and safe for children to come. In the care of the PMFRC, she knows that parents don’t have to worry.
