Find nannies in La Mirada, CA

I have over 30 years of childcare experience both privately and professionally. I am a homeschool parent to 4 young children, including 3 teenagers. While I was in college to obtain a bachelor's in education, I worked as both a nanny and in a daycare for the local school district. I believe that children are full humans deserving of the same respect we would give any adult. I prefer gentle parenting and guidance in lieu of punishment. As a mom, I am well versed with the complex inner workings of running a household. I cook, clean, and everything else for my own family. As for pets, I am a proud kitty mama and have assisted in raising over 50 neonatal kittens as a foster volunteer.

Hello! My name is Alexis, and I provide childcare and tutoring services. I grew up and currently live in Anaheim. I just finished my undergrad at Azusa Pacific University, where I studied finance and was a member of the women’s soccer team. Having lived in Southern California my whole life, I am very familiar with the area and enjoy being active, responsible, and engaged in my community. I have over 7 years of childcare experience, starting at age 15, and I genuinely love working with children. My background includes: • Caring for cousins, nieces, and nephews from a young age—helping with cooking, reading, swimming, and daily activities. • Babysitting for multiple families through UrbanSitter. • Tutoring students from elementary through high school in subjects such as reading, science, and math (2nd grade, 3rd grade, and freshman level). I strive to bring energy, responsibility, and respect to every family I work with. I am also CPR and AED certified, ensuring safety is always a priority. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable working with pets—whether your family has cats, dogs, or both. I would be happy to bring my experience and enthusiasm to support your family’s needs!

Hi there! 👋🏼 I’m Mar. I’ve spent over a decade working with children in many different roles, including nannying, tutoring, sports coaching, and behavioral therapy. Over the years, I’ve been lucky to build long-term relationships with families through UrbanSitter, Care.com, referrals, and word of mouth. I have a degree in Psychology and previously worked as a Behavioral Interventionist, supporting children through floor play and ABA-based care. I’ve also worked with children with different developmental and behavioral needs, both here in the U.S. and while volunteering in El Salvador. I’m currently making a career transition and have returned to nannying, something I’ve always genuinely enjoyed. I love working with kids of all ages, and I try to bring more to the role than simply supervising. I enjoy getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and needs and creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, understood, and free to be themselves. I’m naturally very hands-on and enjoy everything from homework help and outdoor activities to creative projects, outings, and simply spending quality time together. I value trust, communication, consistency, and building a genuine connection with both children and their families. Feel free to reach out with any questions! My rates vary depending on your child’s needs, number of children, responsibilities, and schedule. I’d love to hear more about your family and what you’re looking for. 😊

I’m Briana, an experienced sitter for over 10 years. I cook, clean, and love to care for kids. From diapering to driving kids to their activities, I’m experienced with it all. When it comes to my style with care giving, I like to practice the just go with it method. Playing with kids, no matter their age, is a lot of improv. I enjoy forming connections with kids and supporting their natural preferences and curiosity, as long as they’re staying safe! I’ve recently been inspired by the RIE philosophy, studying and practicing it for 3 years. I enjoy nurturing each child’s curiosity, autonomy, and natural development. This means I create a calm and safe environment where kids can play at their own pace to naturally learn about the world around them, from infancy to childhood. I observe and respond thoughtfully to their cues as they explore and take it all in. I am the eldest grandchild in family, so taking care of little ones has always felt natural. During my 5 years living and studying in San Francisco, I worked extensively with kids whose ages ranged from 6months to 8 years old, often staying with one family for years as the children grew. I also had 5 months experience with an infant in Fontana. I love working with children of all ages and find it very easy to form relationships with those I care for. I enjoy singing, baking, playing outdoors and all things creative. I also teach yoga so I am always up to date with my CPR certification. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and fish if you need help with pets at home. I also maintain my own small greenhouse and know my way around a garden, if you ever need help tending to your plants. I am confident I can be a great fit for any family who communicates how I can make the experience best for their unique needs. I look forward to meeting you all!

Hello! My name is Kaelin and I am a recent graduate from UCSD! I have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a minor in child development and literature. My area of focus is child development in psychology so I understand the needs of each child at any age. Experience includes: - professionally babysitting for 3+ years - worked with kids 1:1 in schools on the spectrum/ with varying behavioral issues - worked at a group home with adolescents with varying behavioral issues - coach for kids age 6-18 for cross country, soccer, track, and rock climbing I’d be glad to help with any of their homework, read to the kids, help with their literacy skills, etc. I can also help with basic math homework. My goal as a psychology graduate and also as a person is to let the kids understand that they are a human as well and should be treated with the same respect and kindness that adults treat each other with. Often times people treat kids as if they’re less autonomous beings because of their age and I think it’s important to let them know their ideas, opinions and thoughts are just as important and valuable as ours. It build their confidence and self-esteem and also helps with their identity development. One of my more integral talents is being very craft and creative! I have my own small business where I make stuffed animals and I absolutely love doing any sort of arts and crafts. (I can also bring supplies of my own to do different activities with the kids) I am also very good at baking! So if your kids want to learn how to bake, need a snack, or you’d like to come home to a baked treat I’d love to do that. I am also open to doing household chores and also errands such as grocery shopping. I am also able to walk dogs and take care of dogs if needed.
