My husband and I are "empty nesters". I miss the joy and fun of being around children. I was a nanny throughout college and currently sit for friend and family when needed. I am considered the "fun aunt" by my nieces and nephews.

Kimberly is wonderful. She is prompt, attentive, personable, & gave me peace of mind while during date night because I knew my daughter was in excellent hands. I am so blessed to have found her & highly recommend her.

Jasmine was really great with my son. He has special needs and she handled his seizures really well and I know it can be scary. She’s really patient and kind with him and I’m so grateful for that. If I was ever back in Alabama I would absolutely hire her again.

I enjoy sitting because it gives me the chance to nurture creativity and the curiosity their young minds, and watch them grow. It's incredibly fulfilling to be a trusted part of a child’s world and to know that I’m helping to create a safe and joyful environment for them to thrive in. I have been sitting off and on for 10 years and teaching preschool (birth-5yrs) through 5th grade for 10 years while working on my college degrees. I have a BS in community health education. I have two master's degrees in early childhood education and the other in health education promotion and programs from UAB. I'm working on a doctorate thats specializes in child health and behavior. I am first aid and CPR certified. I will clean up after your child, (dishes, toys, accidents, etc), play appropriate fun and engaging activities with them, help with school work and bathe them if needed. I also tutor children in reading and math.

I highly recommend this sitter to any family looking for someone caring, dependable, patient, and trustworthy. They have a warm personality and genuinely care about the well-being, comfort, and safety of the children in their care. They are responsible, attentive, and understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable knowing their children are in good hands. They would be a wonderful addition to any family looking for a sitter who will treat their children with kindness, respect, and genuine care. I would gladly recommend them to other families and believe they would do an excellent job!

Chloe H., Babysitter in Bessemer, AL 35020 with 6 years of paid experience

I have over 10 years of childcare experience, including paid babysitting, family caregiving, daycare work, camp counseling, and professional work with children and families. For about 2 to 3 years, I worked as a paid babysitter for my cousins’ children, who were school-age ( elementary /preteen) at the time. I was trusted to care for them while their parents were away, including overnight and multi-day stays. I was responsible for preparing meals, helping with hygiene and routines, transporting them to haircuts, games, and activities, and making sure they were safe and cared for while their parents were gone. I’ve also been helping care for my nieces and nephews since 2015, so I’m very familiar with everyday routines like meals, baths, bedtime, homework, getting kids ready, activities, and caring for multiple children at different ages. My childcare background also includes working as a daycare teacher with 3-year-olds and serving as a camp counselor at the YMCA. I also have my Master of Social Work and currently work with children and families, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I’m caring, patient, dependable, and structured. I like for kids to feel comfortable and be themselves, but I also believe in routines, boundaries, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m mainly looking for evening, weekend, date-night, and occasional babysitting opportunities.

I have 3 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers, and I’ve also looked after school age children, although most of my work has been with younger kids. I love being a calm, gentle, and nurturing caregiver, and I really enjoy helping children learn, grow, and develop new skills in a safe and positive environment where they feel comfortable. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I’ve learned how to adapt to different routines, needs, and personalities. I’m also reliable and good at staying calm under pressure, and I follow daily routines like feeding, diapering, naps, and planning age appropriate activities that support learning and development.
