Hi! My name is Heather Willis, I am a female currently looking for some extra cash in the Washougal area. I have experience with special needs kids because I used to be TA for them back when school was in school and not online. I always got along with the children I’ve cared for and always made sure they are fed and well taken care of. I will make sure the kids messes are cleaned up before i’m done taking care of them. I’m currently a student at Washougal High School and is in 11th grade with honor classes and a couple CTE awards. :)
