A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Harlie Heinen, I am 20 years old. I just moved back to home from living in Baton Rouge! I have my own house and also more than happy to care for your kids at your house for yours and their comfort!
I am attending Mcneese State University to get a second degree in nursing. I have a huge family my cousins range from 1 month old to 18 years old and have watched all ages! My sister has a 9 month old that I watch a few times a week for right now.
 Also, I lived with my cousin to take care of her 2 year old and 8 month old for 6 months! I am not CPR certified but am willing to do it to relieve any anxiety! I do have athletic training experience for 2 years and have treated asthma attacks to broken bones and everything in between!
I am very passionate about the up bringing of children and how they perceive the world. I was raised to treat everyone with respect and try to put a smile one everyone’s face due to not knowing what they are going through!

A little bit about me

So, although I only have one child myself( I will gladly disclose more personal details in the event that we move forward), I do also have a lot of experience in classrooms from 6th to 12 grade. I am a certified tutor( focused intensely on high school math and English, primarily G. E. D prep) I will say that I do tend to keep some areas of my speech and writing relaxed. Therefore, should you notice any grammatical or spelling errors, I'm sincerely apologizing in advance, assurring you that your children would not be encouraged towards such mistakes.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Nora and I am a first year student at TCC. I graduated from Bishop Kelley High School and am taking a year to get my basics done and save some money. I love kids and I worked as an aftercare school teacher for two years in high school. I also was a life guard for two years so I am trained in first aid and CPR. The majority of my school classes are online so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. I have a lot of experience with kids because I have younger siblings, younger cousins, and I have been taking babysitting jobs ever since I was old enough to. I have a car that can fit car seats if needed and hold up to 4 passengers (including the front seat). I love meeting new faces and embracing new families!
