We continue our series from Photographer Jade Chittock, 'Life in Burlington during a Pandemic' as we meet local families who are sharing their experiences together while being in lockdown.

THE BLOOMFIELD FAMILY Meet Photography by Jade Chittock

"As a health care professional working through the pandemic, I have been faced with many challenges while trying to maintain a work-life balance. The stay at home recommendation has allowed our family to share and enjoy moments we may have never had together. After running the kids to hockey and dance we rarely had time to eat a meal as a family. During the pandemic we have appreciated eating our meals with one another, enjoying outdoor hikes but most of loving and cuddling with our new puppy.... Hazel." - Tara Bloomfield "As a teenage girl, the pandemic has been hard. I haven’t been able to hang out with my friends or dance in person, but there has been some positives. I get to see my family often, I get to spend lots of time with our new puppy, Hazel, and I have extra time to relax. Covid has been a huge struggle, but I’m finding my way through it." - Abby Bloomfield

"As a high school student, the pandemic has not made anything easier for me. Working at home comes with lots of distractions and less opportunities to see my friends. Outside of school the pandemic has brought many positives as I get to spend more time with my family and our new puppy. It’s been hard staying indoors the majority of the day but at least I know that we are safe and there for each other." - Ben Bloomfield
