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.

My journey started with two years in a daycare setting, where I learned the "nuts and bolts" of childcare. This is where i learned patience, safety, and how to handle those unpredictable moments with a calm heart. But beyond the professional experience, I’m simply someone who truly loves kids. I believe every child deserves a babysitter who is genuinely excited to see them. I’m naturally upbeat and high energy, and I love bringing that "spark" to the families I work with. Whether we’re building the world’s tallest blanket fort, reading favorite stories for the tenth time, or just chatting about their day, I aim to be a supportive, fun, and reliable presence in your home. I know how important your little ones are to you, and I promise to care for them with the same warmth, laughter, and attention I’d want for my own family. I can't wait to meet you and your kiddos!

Hi! I'm currently an undergraduate Psychology student with a passion for child development and working with kids of all ages. I love creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. Through my studies, I've gained valuable knowledge about children's emotional, social, and cognitive development, which helps me connect with kids in a patient and understanding way. I'm responsible, dependable, and committed to providing families with trustworthy care. Whether it's helping with homework, planning engaging activities, or simply being a positive role model, I look forward to supporting your family's needs!
