Find experienced child care providers in Bessemer, AL

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 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.

Hi! I’m a nursing student and lifelong animal lover with over two years of experience caring for pets. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, administering basic care, and providing plenty of affection and companionship. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust while you’re away, so I always follow care instructions carefully and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos whenever possible. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, lots of playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, responsible, and committed to giving your pets the best care possible, and I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members.

I graduated from Samford University with a bachelor's in Elementary Education. I homeschooled our four children and am now a grandparent. Being a "Gigi" is the best! I enjoy working with children of all ages. I believe each child is special, with their own unique, God-given purpose. I seek to pass that along to the children I care for or teach.

I have a degree in Elementary Education, am CPR and First Aid certified, and work full time as the 3K lead teacher at a church preschool. I am also working towards my CDA in preschool through the school which I am employed. I began babysitting when I was around ten, first as a "junior" babysitter for my sister and mother, and then alone as I got older. I have over 20 years experience babysitting children from infants through middle school age, and have worked in a childcare setting for 15 of those years. I also volunteered working with the youth at my church in the past, mostly with middle school girls. Although some ages and personalities are more challenging than others, I always find it rewarding working with children. They see the joy and wonder in things we take for granted, and I am always learning something from them. I love music and reading, as well as doing arts and crafts, playing games, and baking. Since I work full time during the week, I am only available weekends and evenings.
