New Episode!

  • For the past fourteen years, Ben Fairchild, his wife Beth and their team at Steveston Village Maternity have been giving parents of young kids and expectant moms and dads that much needed “we’re here for you” experience.

    Ben is the owner of the store located in Richmond, BC Canada. In this episode we learn about his adventures from being a pro snowboarder in the US to starting a retail business here in Steveston—all while he and his wife were expecting their first baby!

    Mom and dads will also hear plenty of assurance from Ben that, “It’s going to be ok!”

    Fearless, empathetic and honest—Ben shares his views about:

    • Willingness to take risks in life

    • Joys and challenges of parenthood

    • His passion for helping families find solutions that work for them

    So whether you’re taking a much needed break, driving the kids to soccer practice, or doing the dishes, it’s time to press play to hear what Ben has to say!
