Self Employed Family - 12 month stay planned - Need Visa Advice

Hi,

My wife (22y/o) and I(25(y/o) visited Canada 2 years ago for our honeymoon, worked at a summer camp (staying 2 1/2 months) and we loved it.

We now have a 12month old daughter and are looking at the possibility of moving to Canada for 12 months to rent a place and explore the opportunity of living in a different country.

I am self-employed (run an online business that allows me to work from anywhere), and was wondering we go about applying for visas?

I've been reading all the visa websites for hours and can seem to fit myself into any of the categories (Working Visa seems to need a job offer) and whether having a child affects anything.

We are looking to move over in March 2012, after our current housing lease expires (Australian residents).

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you are from one of the Visa exempt countries, you can visit Canada for up to 6 months only. You will have to leave Canada after 6 months and you may re-enter later on.
