Juliane $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Julie, and I’m a dedicated, patient, and energetic nanny with over two years of full-time childcare experience. Before becoming a nanny, I worked as an ESL teacher for children ages 4–14, where I developed a love for helping kids learn and grow through engaging, age-appropriate activities. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, twins, and school-aged children, supporting everything from developmental milestones and language skills to homework, creative play, and daily routines. I’ve also worked alongside occupational and speech therapists, reinforcing children’s goals at home with consistency and encouragement. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and confident. I strive to create a nurturing environment filled with learning, creativity, and fun while maintaining clear communication with parents. I’m CPR & First Aid certified, fluent in English, and always bring a positive, reliable attitude to every family I work with. I look forward to finding a family where I can make a meaningful, long-term impact!

Mireille $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mireille (pronounced Miray), and i’m a warm, reliable, and attentive nanny with a strong background in child development and family care. I’m currently pursuing my master’s degree in clinical psychology at Pepperdine University (marriage & family therapy track), which has given me a deep understanding of children’s emotional, behavioral, and developmental needs at every stage. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, including working with high-profile families under NDA. I take pride in creating a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow, learn, and explore. My approach blends warmth with gentle structure. I love planning engaging, age-appropriate activities, supporting learning and creativity, helping with routines and homework, and being a steady, positive presence in a child’s daily life. I’m especially attuned to emotional regulation, communication skills, and building secure attachments. Families often describe me as dependable, thoughtful, patient, and naturally intuitive with children. I genuinely love what I do, and I bring intention, care, and professionalism into every home I work in. I would love to be a supportive extension of your family and help your children thrive. 💛

"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)."
