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.

Hello! My name is Ihuoma (E-ho-ma), and I’m 24 years old. I love working with children and have been caring for kids at my church for many years. I’m excited to expand that experience through SitterTree! I bring a fun, energetic presence while also maintaining a great balance between playtime and structure. In addition to childcare, I have experience as a caregiver for elderly and disabled individuals, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and sense of responsibility. I am also BLS certified and committed to providing a safe, caring, and positive environment for every child I work with.
