Hi, My name is Danae I’m 30 years from Los Angeles. I am Legal Assistant, Case Manager, and Notary for a personal injury firm with a passion for children & childcare. I’ve been a nanny for about 15+ years, I started by nannying for twins and began working for other friends and family’s children as well. In my years of being a nanny, I’ve mainly cared for infants, toddlers and elementary school age but love kids of all ages. In my free time, I like to play basketball, go swimming, cooking, and dance. I'm a dedicated, hardworking, and professional nanny & I am looking to showcase my experience and skills to ensure exceptional childcare. I strive to be the best nanny I can be. I wish to help families with providing a safe and comfortable environment for their children. I also encourage children to participate in fun and educational activities. Hope to speak soon :)

If I sit for your family, I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd rate me on my services to you. Hi! I’m a caring and dependable childcare provider with over 15 years of experience working with children from infancy through early elementary age. I’m currently studying Child Development and work on call as a substitute Teacher Assistant with children ages 0–5. I have a strong background in infant and toddler care and am comfortable with all parts of daily routines, including feedings, naps, diapering, potty training, and bedtime. I’ve cared for up to four children at once and enjoy supporting sibling relationships in a calm, positive way. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, understood, and supported. I aim to create a fun, nurturing environment while also following family routines and expectations closely. I’m reliable, patient, and communicative, and I love helping parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

I have over 20 years of experience as a professional nanny and have worked with children from newborns to 12 years old. I am certified in CPR and first aid, and I am adept at multitasking while supervising children. I am also skilled in preparing nutritious and delicious meals and snacks for children. Additionally, I have experience in sleep training, potty training, and led weaning for babies transitioning to solid foods. I am a structured nanny and adhere to a sleep schedule that begins on Day 2 of a baby’s life, as growth and development continue.

“We were very pleased to have Jho watch our two young boys for a date night while on vacation in LA. We plan to have her back again very soon!”

I am currently available on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday night. Fully vaccinated, covid and flu. I am a PhD candidate at Northwestern in Theatre and Drama. As someone who works in theatre and drama, I appreciate how children know how to have fun and be creative. I am available for occasional jobs and I can be contacted on short notice. Policies: I charge +2 per hour for additional children not included in the original booking. I charge for hours booked + any extra hours, so please think about how much time you actually need.

“Liz is lovely! She was very communicative, reliable, and easygoing. My kids really enjoyed their time with her, and I felt confident leaving them in her care. I would absolutely hire her again!”

I have been babysitting with UrbanSitter since 2019. I enjoy playing with kids, laughing, challenging them to problem solve, and teaching them random skills. I love math; I studied math at Rio Hondo College and at UC Irvine. I’m a big sister, an aunt, and a mentor. My younger sister graduated college and went on to earn an MBA; my niece graduated from college and is now a nurse. I am an animal lover and I have a very sweet dog. He is about 10 years old and he is a husky, lab, border collie mix. Please let me know if you have any questions.

“Lorraine was great! Our toddler is often shy, but she warmed right up to Lorraine. I would definitely recommend her!”
