From a young age, Hailey Moore knew her future career path. “Growing up, I always wanted to work with kids,” she said. “I would pretend to have kids in my room, and I would hand out papers, like I was their teacher.” What began as a childhood dream became her reality through a winding path of career choices, and her passion has led her to be named the Reno County Task Force Provider of the Month for October.
Now a childcare provider for toddlers at Buhler USD 313’s newly-opened Crusader Corner childcare center, Hailey has a wealth of experience, having worked as a para educator at Plum Creek Elementary and Union Valley Elementary.
“Kids are just so fun to work with,” she said. “It’s a big job, especially coming from working with elementary-aged children to toddlers, but I love it so much.”
What sets Hailey apart is her perspective on the importance of her role. She doesn’t just see herself as a daycare provider—she views herself as someone helping to shape the future. “I always think about it in the aspect of, we are raising world changers. The kids that are in my room, I could have future doctors, future paramedics, future nurses, future teachers. Those kids are going to grow up and be world changers.”
The impact Hailey makes on these young lives is something she treasures deeply. “It’s amazing to think like, wow, I am helping them grow up. I’m teaching them little things that are going to help them as they grow.”
For Hailey, her job is not only rewarding but also profoundly meaningful. “It is such a fun and rewarding job.”
Her dedication, enthusiasm, and heartfelt commitment to helping children grow and thrive have earned her the honor of being recognized as the Reno County Childcare Task Force Provider of the Month for October. Hailey is an inspiring example of someone who is not only pursuing her passion but is also making a lasting impact on the future generations she nurtures each day.
