We survey four nearby irregular galaxies for radio supernova remnants (SNRs) using deep (1{sigma}~20uJy), high-resolution (~20pc) Very Large Array continuum data at 20, 6, and 3.6cm. We identify discrete sources in these galaxies and use radio spectral indices and H{alpha} images to categorize them as SNRs, HII regions, or background radio galaxies. Our classifications are generally in good agreement with the literature. We identify a total of 43 SNR candidates: 23 in NGC 1569, seven in NGC 4214, five in NGC 2366, and eight in NGC 4449. Only one SNR - the well-studied object J1228+441 in NGC 4449 - is more luminous at 20cm than Cas A. By comparing the total thermal flux density in each galaxy with that localized in HII regions, we conclude that a significant fraction must be in a diffuse component or in low-luminosity HII regions.
