A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Hailee, and I’m a nurturing, dependable, and creative caregiver with a passion for working with children. I’m currently an Elementary Education major with a minor in Public Health, which has given me valuable insight into child development, learning styles, and health-conscious caregiving.

I bring a warm and patient energy to every household, whether I’m helping with homework, planning fun and educational activities, or keeping a consistent routine. I have previous experience working with children of various ages through leadership roles, classroom settings, and community programs. I’m also CPR/First Aid aware, safety-conscious, and open to helping with light housekeeping, meal prep, or errands if needed.

Families appreciate my upbeat attitude, strong communication, and reliability. I’m excited to bring a sense of joy, structure, and care into your child’s day!

Hello, I'm Khira, a 24 year old originally from Indiana. I moved to New Orleans in 2019 to attend Tulane and have been enjoying life in the south ever since.

A little bit about me

I’m responsible, patient, and energetic. I’ve spent my summers working at my family’s daycare, Smiley Faces Daycare, and regularly helped out after school during the year. I also grew up helping care for my younger siblings and cousins, so childcare has always been a part of my life. I’m currently a college student, and I love music, arts & crafts, and helping kids feel seen, supported, and cared for.
