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 focus on creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. I love planning fun activities like crafts, outdoor play, reading, and creative games that encourage curiosity and development. I’m also responsible, organized, and attentive to each child’s unique needs and routines. Families can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and fully present with their children.

Hi!! My name is Chloe and I am a warm hearted, open minded, and energetic caregiver with over 10 years of childcare experience for children 2months-11 years of age. I am passionate about theatre and artistic expression, and I love to encourage exploration of literature and the arts in the children I care for. I also offer tutoring in English / Reading and transportation services to and from school and extracurricular activities. I have a very flexible schedule and an impeccable driving record as I have never been in an accident or even gotten a ticket in my almost 10 years of driving! Thank you for your consideration :)

Anni
Hi! I’m Anni, I’ve been a nanny for 4+ years, I enjoy doing outdoor activities and learning new things. Being a nanny is such a rewarding experience, you get to see the children you nanny for grow and become such independent people, and being able to build a relationship with them and their family is so amazing.
