Millie 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Millie and I am a professional nanny with more than 12 years of experience, specializing in caring for children aged btw newborns to toddlers. My caregiving philosophy focuses on fostering independence and creativity through hands-on activities, outdoor play, and structured routines.In my previous roles, I have managed tasks like meal preparation, potty training, while ensuring a safe and positive environment. I am fully CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, I love supporting busy parents and helping children thrive. I would welcome the opportunity to chat and see how I can support your family! I’m mom too my son is 13 years old. My last job was 6 years ago with a beautiful family with 2 kids of different ages. I had to leave this family after 4 years because the pandemic hit and I had to start working in other kind of job,

Millie is one of the only people in the LA area that I would trust to take care of my children. Millie first started with our family after the birth of my first born in 2016. From the infant stage, Millie had all the skills and qualifications to ensure my child was cared for, safe, and loved. We felt very comfortable being full time working parents leaving our child at home with Millie. She slowly became part of our family. We had another child shortly afterword and Millie’s ability to manage a toddler and an infant was truly unmatched. Helping with keeping the house tidy and managing their meals- we were always amazed at her natural ability to manage our home and keep our kids loving their time with her. We trusted Millie to take the boys on walks, to the park, bathing them and all the other situations that came up she was always professional and respectful. During the pandemic we had to say goodbye to our over 4 year relationship. She brought such joy to our kids and was there for so many milestones. I truly recommend Millie as she has been a trustworthy and reliable source of childcare for us.

Booked by 90 families in West Hills, CA

Hello! I’m Nico and I bring a warm, grounded presence alongside a genuine passion for child development. My background spans 10 years of childcare experience inclusive of nannying, arts education through dance, tutoring, coaching, and one-on-one mentorship — these experiences have sharpened my ability to meet children where they are, build trust, and help them grow in confidence, creativity, and character. I understand that every child is different and I readily adapt my methods to care for children holistically, understanding their unique personalities, pace, and needs. I am professional, discreet, and respectful in my approach — one that always seeks to honor your family's privacy and maintain a standard of excellence in relational rapport. I am organized and proactive by nature, comfortable managing daily schedules, coordinating activities, and communicating clearly with parents and any household staff. I am reliable, flexible, and take pride in my ability to be fully present. My arts and movement background is something I love weaving into everyday life with children — whether that's an impromptu dance session, a creative project, or simply bringing energy and joy to the ordinary moments of the day. I believe the best childcare isn't just supervision — it's thoughtful, attentive companionship that allows children to feel safe, seen, and supported. I would love the opportunity to connect with new families and learn more about their caregiver needs.

I was visiting LA with my 9 year old, and asked Nico to sit for the afternoon. I hadn’t used the service before but I needed a sitter at a specific time. I showed my daughter several videos, she chose Nico. My daughter had a great afternoon. It’s a small sample size but Nico comes across as very professional with a warm demeanor & seems to genuinely enjoy her work as a caregiver. 10/10 - if the need arises would absolutely book her again the next time we’re in LA.

Hello, My name is Genevieve and I am a graduate from UCSB. I have been working as a babysitter now for over 9 years and have several families for whom I regularly provide care. I have set bedtime routines, helped with meal prep, and assisted with homework in my previous roles. I've worked with infants to 12-year-olds, including gifted and neurodiverse children. I pride myself on creating engaging and educational lessons. I also prioritize spending plenty of time outdoors. With my previous coursework in child development and psychology, I am confident in my ability to be an asset to your family. I'm excited to hear from you and discuss your family dynamics and expectations further! Warmest Regards, Genevieve

We just came home from dinner, and all four kids are happy and healthy - thanks Genevieve!

Caring and responsible babysitter with years of experience supporting children’s learning and growth. Creative, patient, and reliable in providing a safe, fun environment.

Olena was a wonderful babysitter for our family. She was professional, reliable, and very caring with our baby. She arrived on time, followed our routines carefully, and kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind. Olena has a calm and gentle approach, and it was clear our baby felt comfortable and well cared for. We would happily book her again and highly recommend her to other families.

Danielle 2 reviews
$22 per hour for 1 child

I am a credentialed teacher with several years of teaching experience, and I valued raising my son without daycare so much that I stayed home to be with him. My son has ADHD, and I helped him to get through all of his schooling. Now he is a PhD student in Medical Research! I enjoy working with children of all ages, and I take pride in caring for others in a respectful, meaningful way. I am creative and fun as well, and I feel comfortable communicating with families to make sure that everything goes well.

I have known Danielle for more than ten years. During that time, we both served as committee members for our local Scout Troop. I observed how she interacted with the Scouts and I admired her calm demeanor. Danielle always shows patience and care when working with children. I appreciate that she is always willing to lend a helping hand. She continues to volunteer her time and share her talents with various organizations in our community.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
