After growing up and starting their own family in Calgary, Mike and Christina made their dream come true and bought an acreage in the Evansburg area. They moved in 2016 and love every minute raising their family and spending time with friends. They both knew they wanted to start a business and make a difference in people’s lives. Fortunately, a door opened and an opportunity to start a Home Care Company in the Yellowhead County area presented itself. Both Mike and Christina were close to their Grandfathers, who eventually ended up in nursing homes because their Grandmother’s had Caregiver burnout. If they had the option to have kept their loved one in their own house and hire someone who could give them the care and TLC they needed they would have. This experience is where the couple’s passion comes from. They both are excited to help people of all needs as they successfully grow Unity Home Care Pembina Valley.

While in Chetwynd her family struggled to find care for her grandparents. As a result, Lillian's family moved to Evansburg in 2018 to provide care for her Grandma with Cancer. Her last few years were greatly improved by advocates like Lillian's mother and kind nurses. In 2021 Lillian was able to provide care and companionship to a family friend with ALS. She became a close friend and she saw a great improvement in her mood and comfort when she was with her. These experiences left Lillian feeling motivated to help care for others."
