Meet Ms. Keni Loud

Hi there,

My name is Keni Loud, I am the owner and founder of Little Blessings Academy. First and foremost, I am a believer and follower of Jesus Christ. It has been my prayer and calling to provide a forum for early childhood development that teaches children to know and follow Jesus Christ and also enriches other aspects of their lives, such as academically, physically, and emotionally. God has given me an incredible vision! I am super excited and honored to follow His plan that will allow me to nurture and cultivate children's spiritual and academic lives.

I am the proud mother of 5 beautiful children, 4 of whom I homeschooled. I have over 20+ years experience raising children through all stages, blessing me with the knowledge and wisdom to give other parents. I also have 13+ years working and volunteering in my church's Children’s ministry which included childcare, Sunday school lessons, special needs, girls mentoring, leading an Awana group, and working special events.

As a busy mom, I knew I needed to take care of myself so I could be there for my children. This helped me discover a passion for fitness, which led me to become certified as a personal trainer and CPR/AED certified.

I have always loved children and enjoyed spending quality time nurturing and teaching them. My most peaceful moments are when I am praying and worshiping, and my most joyous moments are in the middle of pure chaos with kids being loud and having fun! God has surrounded me with children my entire adult life. He has blessed me with the ability to hold onto childhood excitement, such as playing in the rain, crafting, and creating playful environments for children to bring imagination alive.

The world will rob our children of their innocence and childhood and guide them in the wrong direction. I want to be used as a vessel to do everything I can for as many children as I can to instill the Word in their hearts and to help them to know and grow in Jesus. I have desire to guide children toward meaningful growth, to foster their confidence, to make learning a joyful experience, and to enhance their natural wonder. Every child that enrolls in our program will be provided with love and care and prayed over daily and guided toward Jesus Christ.

Meet Mrs. Johnson

Hi friends,

My name is Brianna Johnson, I have come to know and love my dear friend Keni over the last 3 years. I believe that God brought us together for a special purpose, something that is going to impact generations. I want you to know I am a believer and follower of Jesus Christ, and the mother of 4 wonderful daughters. I believe as a mother first and foremost that it is my God given calling to disciple my children to know the love of Jesus. I have been extremely blessed to be able to homeschool my two oldest children for the last two years.

I am also a military veteran, I served 5 years in the United States Marine corps, I believe my experience serving my country helped me discover parts of me that God wanted to be able to use. I developed a strong ability in public speaking, computer and other technical skills. While serving I met my husband, and we found ourselves back in Corsicana, Texas after 10 years of me being away. I graduated from the little school of Dawson High School in 2007, and later completed my B.S. in Alternative Medicine, from Everglades University in 2017.

Over the last couple of years, I have discovered a love for teaching and learning right along with my children. God has given me many wonderful gifts, and passions that I have been able to share and teach my children, but I believe He does not want me to stop there. I believe these gifts and talents that I have been blessed with were meant to be shared in a way that can bring glory to God not only for my family, but for other families.

So here I go, this might be long but hopefully it will make sense if you stick with me. I have always enjoyed being able to create whether its building something, crafting, painting, designing, or photography. I have a deep joy for nature and the outdoors, I especially love working in my garden, and I find joy in taking a stroll so I can take in God's creation.

I have found more and more throughout the years that God has needed me to be home with my children, so while being home I have found creative ways to contribute, while also fulfilling some of my passions. However, now looking back, I believe those were callings placed on my heart by God because I was needed specifically. I became a trained birth doula in 2015; I have a deep love for assisting mothers in natural birth. I am also a freelance lifestyle photographer; it has brought me so much joy to capture families, births, weddings through the years since 2015. I also developed a deep love of physical fitness while serving in the military, and after becoming a mom it grew more and more. I felt the call to get certified as a barre instructor in 2021, and teach classes to moms at the park, to help them both physically, and emotionally by building a community of mothers "the village we all need".

So, with all that, God has brought me here to partner with families, to help nurture their children's love for Jesus and feel His love for them, to spark creativity and a desire to learn in their minds and prepare them for the next stage of their lives. I know God has so much in store for the children that we get to teach, and I am praying for each one of them.
