SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our school. Using the app, I can post jobs, pay and review, and chat with providers who are scheduled for upcoming jobs. When I have a teacher call out last-minute, I can rely on SitterTree. It really could not be a simpler process.

I own a preschool and I cannot say enough about how much we love SitterTree. We consistently find wonderful educators to fill our needs. The customer service is prompt, kind, and quick to solve any issue. 10/10 would recommend this app for any substitute educator needs.

Hi there! My name is Tosin. I have a solid background in childcare that started back in high school, where I did a lot of babysitting. Over the years, I’ve also worked with kids in various settings like Vacation Bible School (VBS) and assisting with children’s church on Sundays. Most recently, I’ve worked as a teaching assistant for children ranging from 3rd through 8th grade. I love working with kids of all ages and I’m excited to bring that experience to the table! In my free time I love reading, playing guitar, crocheting, hiking, coding, and many other hobbies😆

Maddy
I’m friendly and reliable and would primarily like to work with babies and toddlers. I have limited experience looking after toddlers with other people around, that’s why I put “none” for professional experience. I am low energy, and would love crafts, reading and supervising them while they play.
