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.

Reina
Hello. I’ve worked at a daycare for about seven months called “A Little Kids Academy”. I’ve always wanted to have my own daycare or babysitting business in the future. I’ve raised and took care of my younger siblings since I were little, so I have years of experience with infants to preteens. I would like to stay in this area of a career and eventually get an Associates degree in child development. I would love to improve my experience and skills by working with the little ones again.

Hi! My name is Sophie and I am a USF student. I have about five years of childcare experience between babysitting and camp counseling.

My schedule is very flexible - I only have classes twice a week - and I look forward to starting as soon as needed!
