BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you end up using Michelle, it will ruin all other agencies for you…read more I am a professional career nanny. I have over seven years of nannying experience, five years of teaching experience, and more. I have a B/S in childhood development as well as my MAT. When I began my search for a nanny-family in LA, I did my due diligence by shopping around looking at multiple agencies. I found that Michelle had the TOP RATED AGENCY ON MULTIPLE SITES and wanted to take a closer look. I read through every. single. review. I thought to myself, "Really? Every single person had a positive experience with this agency? That's just not statistically possible if she's really working with this many people..." I decided to set up a meeting. I drove to her office where we met to discuss particulars (what I'm looking for, what families are in the market for a nanny right now, what ages/salary/commute/hours I'm looking for) and the moment she opened the door and greeted me with a giant smile and her upbeat, positive attitude, I felt like just working with HER was my perfect placement! Once we started the process, Michelle was completely professional while also refreshingly honest and realistic in her suggestions. She really took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for and she only suggested me to families that she knew had the potential to be a "love match!" After looking at a few potential matches, Michelle called me to tell me that she had "found my family!" She said, "This is the one. Please go for an interview and see for yourself." So I did. This is the part of the review where I'm going to get annoyingly emotional. Not only did the family and I immediately "click," but Michelle had made sure that all of our stats were in alignment. The age range, schedule, amount of hours, commuting time, pay rate, expectations and needs happened to all align with what I was looking for. It was LITERALLY the PERFECT PLACEMENT!!!! Coincidence? I think not. Michelle is highly intelligent, professional, personable, understanding, diligent, experienced, communicative, and pleasantly charismatic and I owe my job satisfaction directly to her. Now that I think about it, maybe I should send over a bottle of wine. Thank you, Michelle, for just being so incredibly good at what you do. As I mentioned earlier, when I started this process, I read through every one of your (5 star) reviews and thought, "There's just no way every single review can be five stars..." and now here I am adding one more.

I met Michelle at a time when I was at a low point in my nanny career and personal life. I had…read morebeen looking for top nanny position and had been on many interviews through other agencies. It seemed like I had landed a few dream jobs only for it to slip away from me. Really trying times. Then I met Michelle! This brings a smile to my face. Meeting with her felt like chatting with a friend. I realized after that this is her skill. She loves people and wants to represent both the families and the nannies. It was a slow period and she didn't have any job opportunities at the time when I signed up with her agency, the perfect placement. After being on the hunt for my top nanny job with a kind family for many months and it wasn't happening I was getting ready to move out of state. I mentioned to Michelle that I'm no longer looking for a position as it doesn't seem like it's going to happen. Michelle didn't give up on me. She called me with 2 opportunities. I went on both interviews and was called back to do a trial for the one that I wanted !! Yay !! Then Michelle negotiated some time off that I needed to take care of a health issue. The family was so wonderful they waited for me ! All I can say everything lined up perfectly. Michelle will always return your call in a timely manner and she always checks in to see how you're doing. I thank God I met Michelle !

Had the best experience working with Westside Nannies! After a slate of disastrous hires when I…read moretried to do it myself, I finally caved and decided to hire an agency. I spoke with several before selecting WN because I was impressed with their thorough processes, and it didn't feel like they were wasting my time. They zeroed in on exactly what I needed, carefully curating each candidate we interviewed. I really clicked with the team and felt like they had exceptional taste, where it seemed like other agencies just throw everyone your way. Our nanny has been with us for a few months now and seemlessly integrated into our family. Can't recommend Westside Nannies enough!

We have been using this nanny agency for almost 6 months. Having a live-in postpartum nanny help…read moreyou with your baby 18 hours a day sounds like a dream but sometimes can be more stressful than anything else. We have used 3 nannies from this agency so far and I had communication issues with all of them. The nannies are very stubborn and stuck in their own ways. They have a difficult time following direction and instead insist on doing things the way they want to. The first nanny we had was constantly making phone calls on the clock and refused to heat up the milk prior to feeding our baby. The second nanny was better, she helped keep our home tidy, and was good with our baby. She was probably the best nanny we had from this agency. Unfortunately, she injured her back and had to leave our family earlier than planned. Which brings us to our current and final nanny from this agency. She's a little older so she can't help carry the baby in her car seat up the stairs. She's often on her iPhone watching Chinese dramas. She also decided to hang up her dirty underwear and bra on our hallway bathroom towel rack. Additionally, she seems to have a lot of unsolicited advice on how we should dress our baby. She doesn't cook for us or do the baby's laundry. She doesn't even know how to follow directions ie shoves the nipple of the bottle in my bottle averse baby's mouth & ignored me when I told her "no". It doesn't seem that this agency takes the time to really vet out these nannies, instead hiring whomever applies. The agency also takes a while to respond to any text messages which is also incredibly frustrating. I highly recommend spending a little extra coin and using a different agency. Especially if you are a first time parent.

She is patient, dependable, and very attentive to my grandmother's daily needs, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Fanny helps with home-cooked meals, light tidying and organization, and most importantly, taking my grandmother to doctor's appointments and making sure everything runs smoothly. She communicates clearly in mandarin which has made my grandmother feel comfortable and respected. It's not easy to find someone who is both practical and genuinely caring, and Fanny has been exactly that. We're very grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to families looking for reliable part-time elder care. We highly recommend My Asian Nanny!

As our sleep consultant and night doula, Lissette swooped in, helped us understand what was possible and how to get there, and established a strong routine with us. Her good work transformed chaos and frustration into structure and thriving. My son is so much happier and healthier now that he can get into deep sleep, go back to sleep if he wakes up, etc. I can't believe how much better our entire household looks and feels now, vs a month ago. And I don't think there is a better investment my husband and I made throughout this whole baby adventure. It is *everything* to be able to enjoy my baby and this precious season we worked so hard to reach. #Priceless I'd wholeheartedly recommend Lissette and her team generally, and especially to families who are wanting to prioritize healthy sleeping habits.

Finding the right…read moreplace for your child is one of the hardest things a parent does, and from day one, I knew we were in the best possible hands. We started when my son was just five months old and have been with Hanna through his entire first year of care, right up to 13 months now, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. What truly sets this place apart is Hanna herself. She is so loving--it radiates from her! My son absolutely adores her, and you can genuinely see that the feeling is completely mutual; she loves him right back. That feeling of secure, reciprocal affection is priceless for a parent. I never have to worry while I'm at work because I know he is safe, happy, and incredibly well-cared for. It's such a relief to know he's in such a nurturing environment. Because of her consistent care, he's been hitting all his milestones right on track - crawling, pointing, clapping, walking, etc.! Hanna is also meticulous about the details that matter most: she always makes sure he finishes all his milk bottles and food, which is a huge win for us! In this world, we often hear that "it takes a village," and we are so incredibly fortunate to have Hanna as a vital, loving member of ours during these crucial early months. If you are looking for a daycare that offers genuine warmth, dedicated care, and peace of mind, look no further. We feel so lucky to have found her!

I will forever be grateful to Hanna. My daughter was with her from 9 months old to 25 months old,…read moreand in that time, she became so much more than a caregiver - she became a source of love, comfort, and joy. Hanna has a truly special way of caring for children as if they were her own. I always felt completely at peace leaving my little one with her, knowing she was not only safe but deeply loved. My daughter adored her right back! Under Hanna's loving care, my daughter blossomed. She learned to walk, talk, sing her ABCs, count, and color. Hanna's attention to each child's individual needs and interests is remarkable. She tailors daily activities to help them grow and feed their interests. We will miss Hanna dearly as we move on to preschool. She has been such an important and cherished part of our lives. Please, if Hanna has an opening, take it - you won't regret it!
