A little bit about me

My name is Elana. I’m 35 years old with 2 small boys. I have worked in the medical/home health field with some behavioral clients since 2007. I enjoy the love children give making life so much more enjoyable. I lost my 11 month old son in 2022 causing me to enjoy my boys and love them even harder and I want to give the same to other families.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Anna Haisten Williams. I’m from Destin, Florida, and I’m a Samford University graduate with a degree in Journalism & Mass Communication. I currently run my own social media and creative services agency, but I love having opportunities outside the traditional 9–5 — especially those that involve working with kids.
I’ve cared for children from infants to teens and have worked with multiple families over the years. I’m active, patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy helping with routines, activities, homework, and keeping kids engaged. I love being outdoors, staying active, and creating a fun, safe environment.
I’m happy to provide references from local families I currently support. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
