Hi Families! I’m Bre (pronounced Br-ee). I am originally from California but my career as a nanny has moved me to various states including Hawaii, Colorado and now Alabama! I have been a career nanny 9 years but have worked with children for 15 years. I have worked with children ages 1month old - 14 years old. The amount of children I have been responsible for watching at one time is 5 (between ages 8 months & 11 years old). I am big on limiting screen time with children I watch and encourage crafts or other creative activities to assist with their development. I also enjoy making the family’s life easier by managing day to day household work, running errands like grocery shopping & assisting with travel plans or other personal tasks.

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.

I've been babysitting since I was younger. I'm currently at the end of my pharmacy tech program and plan to further my education later to become a pharmacists.

I’ve raised my own children and spent years caring for kids in my family and community.

I treat every child like they’re my own, and every home with the respect it deserves. Whether you need someone for after-school care, weekend help, or full-time support, I bring patience, reliability, and warmth into every role.

I’ve cared for children of all ages—from newborns to school-aged kids—through both personal and professional experience.

Hello, My name is JaShelle. I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Hence, the reason why I love southern soul food :) In my free time I enjoy making craft projects, reading, practicing calligraphy, walking the trails at my local park, cooking, and trying new restaurants. My background caring for infants, toddlers, and youth began when I became a volunteer sitter at my church. I transitioned to babysitting for various families throughout my years of completing college. During that time I gained skills and knowledge that have elevated my childcare journey. My love for witnessing children learn and grow encouraged my decision to become a childcare provider and Doula. Building a great rapport and relationship with your child is my top priority. I'm kind, patient and nurturing, and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with your family!
