Hey! My name is Cyna (pronounced like the "cinna" in Cinnamon) and I am currently a student at Auburn University majoring in Fine Art and planning to get my master's in Early Childhood Education. I love being a sitter because seeing a child's imagination bloom and capacity for love grow just amazes me. In the future I plan to open an art studio, so I hope to cultivate the artistic abilities of all children in my care. I currently share transportation with a family member, so I wlll be dropped off at and picked up from your residence. Please keep this in mind!

I am a junior at Auburn University and I am a nursing major and just started my upper division nursing classes! I have always loved being around children and have been working with them for quite a while. I went to a private high school that had a child care center and I worked there every week from my sophomore year to my senior year of high school! The age range of the child care center was 6 weeks to 3 years old. I also had around 15 families that I got to babysit/nanny for regularly until I left for college! I still get to babysit for them when I go home for breaks! Those ages ranged from newborn to 12 years old. In addition, I also got the opportunity to intern at the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for a summer! I would describe myself as very calm and comforting! My goal is to provide reliable child care while also being a safe and loving space for children when their parents or guardians are not present! I strive to nurture and create fun memories for children while we are together and to create a peace of mind for parents while they are away from their children!

Nurturing young minds is truly my passion. My previous babysitting experiences solidified my desire to positively impact children's lives, so I became a caregiver. I have two years of experience caring for children aged 1-11. My journey of caring for children started in high school when I became a swim teacher and ended with me being a part time baby sitter. I am now a college student comfortable caring for up to three children. I am patient, calm, creative, and imaginative. I communicate with parents through verbal updates at pickup and regular texts or calls. Enforcing household rules is something I am very comfortable with. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and even some technology-based games with children. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I look forward to bringing my enthusiasm and experience to your family!

Hi! I am Anne Darby! I have a genuine love for children and truly enjoy creating a safe, caring, and engaging environment for them. One of my most meaningful experiences was spending a summer in Connecticut as a live-in nanny for three children ages 8 months, 4 years, and 8 years, where I was responsible for daily care, routines, and age-appropriate activities. I have also babysat consistently for multiple families in my hometown of Fairhope, Alabama, which has allowed me to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. Through these experiences, I have gained valuable hands-on childcare skills, a deep sense of responsibility, and meaningful connections that continue to shape my passion for caregiving.
