Mills is the younger daughter of the actor Sir John Mills and the playwright Mary Hayley Bell. She is also the younger sister of actress Juliet Mills, who appears on the U.S. soap opera Passions and played the Nanny in Nanny and the Professor.

Mills was 12 when she was discovered by J. Lee Thompson, who was looking for a boy at first to play the lead role in Tiger Bay. Walt Disney's wife, Lillian Disney saw her performance and suggested that Hayley be given the lead role in Pollyanna. That role of the "glad girl" who moves in with her aunt catapulted Mills to super-stardom in the United States and earned Mills a special Oscar.<1><2>

Disney subsequently cast Mills as twins Sharon and Susan who reunite their divorced parents in The Parent Trap. In the film, Mills sings the hit song "Let's Get Together". Mills made four additional films for Disney in a four-year span, including In Search of the Castaways, Summer Magic, The Moon-Spinners, and That Darn Cat!. During her six-year run at Disney, Mills was arguably the most popular child actress of the era. Critics noted that America's favorite child star was, in fact, quite British and very lady-like. In 1998, she was awarded the prestigious Disney Legend award by The Walt Disney Company.
