A little bit about me

I have been caring for children since I was 12 years old, beginning with babysitting and naturally progressing into summer camps, classroom teaching, and parenting. I spent 13 years as a teacher, gaining extensive experience supporting children of different ages, learning styles, and needs.

I am also the founder and owner of Pisgah Roots Nature Camp, a North Carolina–based program created to support homeschool families through nature-based learning and hands-on experiences. Through this work, I’ve developed a strong understanding of child development, positive guidance, creativity, and fostering safe, engaging environments.

As both an educator and a parent, I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine care to every family I work with. I value clear communication, consistency, and creating a nurturing space where children feel secure, respected, and encouraged to grow.

Hailey R. - Seeking Work in Erie

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Hailey! I’m 22 years old, married, and a proud mom to two dogs and two cats. I grew up in the Albion/Springfield area and now own my home here.

I’ve been working with children since I was 12 years old — my aunt has always owned a daycare, so caring for little ones quickly became second nature to me. In my 20s, I began exploring the healthcare field while continuing to work with kids, and I eventually found my passion as a full-time personal care assistant for the elderly.

While I absolutely love my job and the joy of helping others, I truly miss the energy and imagination that come with working with children — teaching them, inspiring them, and watching them grow. I’m excited to take the next step toward returning to that path and continuing to make a difference through care and creativity.
