Hello! I'm a graduate student at Beeson Divinity School at Samford (originally from Franklin, TN), studying Greek and Hebrew languages. My husband and I have been married a little over a year, and he's beginning officer training with the US Marine Corps starting in January, although I’ll be in town until May (when I graduate). I'm a 25 and teach and tutor Latin, literature, history, writing, and grammar to junior high and high school students during the school year (when I'm not in school myself). I just finished teaching at Thales Academy in Franklin, Tennessee before relocated to Birmingham for grad school. I am the 2nd of 4 kids and grew up caring for my younger sisters and younger cousins. I served as a full-time governess to a wonderful pair of 8-year-old twins, and I have significant experience caring for children with Down syndrome and Angelman syndrome (including g-tube feedings, seizures, meds, etc.). I love quiet days with infants and young kids, reading books, and helping older students with homework. My Wyndy account is new, as I mostly use Care.com, but I can provide several references.

Hi Parents! My name is Norma. Sorry for the blurry pic- I have reached out to Wyndy and they have not been able to fix this for me. I am a behavioral health specialist and am currently home for the holidays. I have my BSc in Psychology (Birmingham-Southern) and my MSc in Health Psychology (University of Westminster, London). In London I have recently accepted a guidance counsellor position in a residential program for adolescents with mental health concerns. While completing my masters I had an internship with Reach Out UK, an organisation which provides mentoring for students at underserved primary schools in London. Previously I have worked for The Exceptional Foundation and Early Autism Services. I have over 8 years of childcare experience and over 3 years of experience in working with children with special needs. I’ve worked with kids from 6 weeks to 16 years old! At The Exceptional Foundation Iworked with adults and children with various disabilities such as autism, downs syndrome, cerebral palsy, etc. I have excellent references available upon request. My hobbies include cooking and completing art projects. I am also Child CPR and Crisis Management certified (both through Glenwood). I look forward to meeting you and your lovely family!

Hi! My name is Aniyiniua E, and I’m currently pursuing a degree in Social Work—a field that perfectly aligns with my passion for working with children and families. For the past five years, I’ve worked as a daycare provider, caring for children of all ages and developmental stages. From soothing newborns and creating engaging sensory activities for toddlers, to helping with homework and providing guidance for teens, I’ve developed a strong understanding of what children need to thrive at every stage.My experience has taught me the importance of patience, communication, and a nurturing environment. I love building meaningful connections with the kids I care for and supporting their emotional and social growth. Whether it’s playtime, mealtime, or bedtime, I’m committed to ensuring your child feels safe, happy, and valued.If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and experienced babysitter who truly loves what they do, I’d love to connect with you!

Hi! My name is Annie. I’m a senior at Samford University. I have watched kids for over 10 years, from my own siblings to church and school nurseries and childcare to community families and even my own nieces absolutely nephew. I love being around kids and I am a great cook, clean up everything, big proponent of playing outside or doing arts and crafts inside. I can also just hang with teens and make sure everything is safe and clean while they do their own thing. Other than snakes or rodents, I’m great with animals!
