Dev 1 review
$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Philadelphia, PA

Hello - My name is Debjani, you can call me Dev. I am offering infant care, childcare, and pet care. I have been formally taking care of children since I was sixteen years old, but have been assisting with kids of all ages in my family for as long as I can remember. I love babies and kids, playing games, providing outdoor experiences and, most importantly, making sure they are well taken care of. I have most recently provided summer nanny services to a 5 month old and am looking for a new position. In addition to childcare, I am able to provide light housekeeping and prepare meals. In addition to children, I also love caring for cats and dogs! I have provided paid pet care to neighbors and friends, in addition to caring for my own pets - a goldendoodle, a boxer mix, and a family cat (he's a menace, but I've won him over!).

“Dev has cared for our daughter as a summer nanny and part time babysitter for the last five years. She is wonderful with children! She follows instructions, is open to suggestions and feedback and is committed to really getting to know the children in her care.”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
