Taylor $17 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I am Taylor and I am 34 years old. I am originally from Montevallo, AL area and recently moved back to Birmingham. I fell in love with childcare about 16 years ago when I worked in a daycare and since then have been a nanny, worked as a substitute for k-12 and worked in the nursery at my church. I am currently employed at a local preschool and work with children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. My passion is working with infants and toddlers but I also have experience with older kids as well. I am applying through Care. com to hopefully pick up more work because I am saving up money so that I can go back to school.
Sadie $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi my name is Sadie! I am 18 and in college currently. I love working with kids and also animals. Some experience that I have had include, running birthday parties for kids aged 4-12 yrs old at my old job, babysitting my younger sister as she has grown up, and volunteering at a summer camp for kids with special needs. Some experience with animals include, working at a doggy daycare and also growing up with four cats. I have also taken a CPR course before taking a life guarding course. I quite enjoy spending time with kids and helping out parents in any way! I can also cook and clean. I would say I am quite attentive and caring!
