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.

I have taken care of children since I was a pre-teen. I worked at my aunt’s childcare center changing diapers, preparing lunch and snacks and playing with children from the ages of 9-13. In high school, I babysat and was a basketball camp counselor.. In undergrad, I was a tutor for the student athletes at my college Texas A&M. During my summer breaks, I worked with families taking care of kids in Baton Rouge. Before entering grad school, I was an academic shadow for a child at the Louisiana School for the Deaf. I also carer for a 5th grader at St.Luke’s with muscular dystrophy and drove her to physical therapy and her tutor after school. I also babysat locally and volunteered at an LSU camp for children with adhd and autism where I was the art counselor. Once in grad school, I was a tutor for the athletes at LSU, and had an internship at Early Head Start where I worked with the babies in the nursery and the teenage moms. I have been a personal nanny for infants and a sitter for children of all ages for various families while also working part time contract jobs in the field of social work since 2012.

Hello there! I am currently a college student pursuing a degree in Computer Science! Outside of school, I work as a substitute teacher, where I have gained experience in working with a diverse range of students, from pre-k through 8th grade. I am very grateful for the opportunities I have had meeting so many people! I learned how to adapt to make those around me comfortable, whether it means being enthusiastic and full of energy, or stay patient and calm in the times where difficulties may arise. I would love to continue my journey working with different people and children to broaden my perspectives and assist the best I can when it is needed!
