Birmingham, Alabama
CareNest sends licensed nurses to families' homes for premium childcare — newborns, post-surgical recovery, special needs, and overnight care. No facility. No daycare run.
Licensed. Insured. Background-checked. In your home.
"We needed someone who could handle our son's g-tube and medication schedule. Care.com didn't have a single option."
Your child just came home from the hospital. A licensed nurse can manage wound care, medication schedules, and monitoring — without you having to become a medical professional overnight.
You're navigating the first weeks of parenthood. A nurse-nanny trained in newborn care can handle feeding support, jaundice monitoring, and breathing checks — the kind of reassurance you can't get from a standard sitter.
Post-partum recovery, shift-working parents, or a child who needs overnight medical monitoring. A nurse-nanny can be there through the night — so you can sleep.
Every CareNest caregiver is a licensed nurse in the state of Alabama. They're trained in medication administration, vital sign monitoring, feeding tubes, emergency response, and pediatric first aid. That training is not optional — it's the entire point.
When your 8-month-old has a 102°F fever at 2am, you're not calling a babysitter. You're calling a nurse.
CareNest is the service that exists for the moments standard childcare can't handle.
"Every child deserves someone who knows the difference between "they seem fine" and "their oxygen saturation is 94%."
— CareNest Mission
We don't hire CPR-certified babysitters. We work with licensed nurses. That's the standard that matters.
No facilities, no schedules, no drop-off windows. We come to you, on your terms.
We bring clinical expertise with warmth. Because children don't just need monitoring — they need nurturing too.
CareNest is launching in Birmingham, Alabama — serving Mountain Brook, Homewood, Vestavia, Hoover, and surrounding areas. Licensed nurses. Families' homes. Premium care.
