Hello families! I am a warm, gentle caregiver with 3 years of experience caring for children, 3 years providing dedicated companionship and routine support for seniors, and 2 years of feline pet sitting. I focus on building trusting relationships, staying patient and present, and maintaining a structured, calm atmosphere at home. From creative playtime and senior assistance to pet routines and light household upkeep, I would love to support your family's needs!
“I am delighted to recommend Saroosh Ahsan as a caregiver and driver on UrbanSitter. Having observed her extensively with children, I can attest to her warmth, exceptional patience, and natural ability to connect with kids of all ages. Saroosh excels at engaging children with creative, hands-on activities, library trips, and reading, always fostering a positive, safe, and fun environment. She is also a thoroughly reliable, punctual, and safe driver who takes safety and scheduling very seriously, making her ideal for school pickups, activity drop-offs, or driving gigs. Her strong background in management and food preparation demonstrates her professionalism, organization, and calm composure under pressure. Saroosh is completely trustworthy, responsible, and a wonderful presence for any family. I recommend her without reservation!”
I’m a recent college graduate who recently moved to Los Angeles. I’ve spent my summers at camp, first as a camper and later as a counselor, where I loved helping create the same meaningful experiences I had as a camper. I also have experience tutoring students throughout high school. In my senior year of college, I took an elective that partnered us with a local school, meeting weekly with a small group of students — it quickly became one of my favorite classes, and solidified my passion for working with kids in educational settings.
Hi families! My name is Celeste, and I earned my bachelor's degree in Elementary and Special Education. I'm an aspiring teacher who is passionate about making a positive impact on children's lives, supporting their growth, and helping them feel confident, valued, and understood. I have years of experience working with children from preschool through 12th grade, including children with diverse learning needs and abilities. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Spanish! I'm patient, nurturing, responsible, dependable, and energetic. My priority is to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable, respected, and supported. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, encouraging creativity, helping with homework, and maintaining daily routines. I'm comfortable with pets, especially dogs, and happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and errands. Caring for children is not about building meaningful connections, but being a positive role model. I value open communication with parents and understand how important it is to feel confident that your children are in caring, trustworthy hands. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and make a positive impact in your children's lives! I also provide tutoring services: Spanish.
“Celeste did a great job when I needed a last-minute sitter for my eight-year-old. I’m always very reluctant to hire last-minute sitters, but she made us feel right at ease from the beginning. She was attentive, and my son really liked her. She’s also an awesome person. My sisters and I really enjoyed talking to her while we were getting ready for our night out! ”
Hi! My name is Josie, and caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. I helped raise my two younger sisters growing up, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to create a safe and supportive environment for children of all ages. I’ve also volunteered through church programs caring for children, helping supervise activities, keeping kids engaged, and making sure they felt comfortable and included. I genuinely love being around children and am often at my happiest when I’m spending time with them, whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, doing crafts, reading stories, or simply being a positive and dependable presence in their lives. I’m a college graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, and families describe me as kind, trustworthy, organized, and easy to communicate with. I’m also a devoted pet owner and have cared for my dog, Daisy, for the past 10 years. Being responsible for her health, happiness, and daily care has strengthened my nurturing nature and attention to detail. My goal is to provide parents with peace of mind while creating a fun, safe, and caring environment where children can feel supported, encouraged, and valued. I treat every child with the same patience, kindness, and respect that I would want for my own family.
I’m Cynthia, and I’ve worked with kids for years in both creative and educational settings. I’ve taught acting and directed youth theater programs, so I’m very comfortable keeping kids engaged, entertained, and supported in a structured but fun way. I’m responsible, patient, and great at balancing playtime with safety and routines. I’m also CPR trained, experienced with different age groups, and confident handling everything from homework help to bedtime routines. I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating an environment where they feel safe, heard, and excited to learn and play. I’d love to help out and make things easier for your family.
“Cynthia is a great babysitter to my 10- and 13-year-old! She drives, cooks, helps with bedtime routines and a lot more. She cares deeply about my kids' well-being and is highly responsible. She is very attentive to our needs while also bringing her own, fun personality to the job. Always eager to go above and beyond, Cynthia has become a great addition to our family.”
