Hi, my name is Melanie. I am CPR/First Aid certified with hands-on experience babysitting, volunteering as a camp counselor, and assisting children with their daily routines. I am patient, reliable, and love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I also have experience supporting children with special needs, including non-verbal children, which has strengthened my ability to adapt, communicate creatively, and provide compassionate care.

Melanie Redondo Beach
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Mel – a nurturing, dependable, and creative soul with years of hands-on experience both as a professional nanny and a proud parent. I've helped raise some pretty incredible kids (including my own), and I bring that same calm, joyful, all-in energy to every family I work with. Honestly? I’d rather spend my days building blanket forts, reading silly books, and helping with homework than sitting behind a desk at a boring job. Kids keep life real, and I love being part of their world. One of the families I nannied for in Seattle has become like extended family—we're still very close. The kids even visit me in LA, and my “bonus kids” stay with them when they’re in Seattle. They used to call me MelNanny, and it totally stuck (I wear it like a badge of honor). Also, fun fact: my husband is a screenwriter and we’re working on a few creative projects. So if your kid wants to act out their imaginary universe or write their own superhero saga? I’m all in. What I Bring to the Table: Years of real-world parenting & nannying experience Deep, lasting connections with families Creative play, reading time, and healthy routines Reliable communication and genuine care A big heart and a solid sense of humor If you're looking for someone who will love your kids like family, keep them engaged, and make their days fun and grounded—I’d love to connect!

Booked by 42 families in Lomita, CA

Hi, my name is Adilyn. I'm originally from New York, but have been in California for over 20 years. I'm married with two young adults. I've been a stay at home mother all of my children's lives. I decided to do some babysitting because I enjoy being around kids and I could also continue doing my part as a mom/wife. I have been very fortunate to be able to be home with my kids throughout their life and if I can provide some ease to parents looking for a caretaker then I'm glad to do it.

Adilyn is just fantastic - we love her calm and positive energy, her commitment to caring for our little one, and her proactivity with early arrival and cleanup. We're so thankful to have found her for future date nights!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
