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.

Evan
Hi! I’m Evan! I am a super energetic, kid-loving sitter with 4 years of experience in babysitting, tutoring/homework help, and being a camp counselor. I love getting to know each kid’s personality and creating days filled with laughter, cooking experiments, board-game battles, outdoor adventures, and whatever sparks their imagination. I’m all about making kids feel comfortable, supported, and excited to have fun. I can’t wait to meet your family and bring some positivity and creativity to your home!

Alba
Hello, my name is Alba Umanzor. I am from El Salvador and have lived in the United States since 2015. I have three children whom I love very much and who inspired me to start working with children. I have 8 years of experience working as a teacher in Spanish immersion early childhood centers. I also worked as a nanny for one year, caring for children from 3 months to 5 years old. I love working with children of all ages—infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. I hold a CDA (Child Development Associate) credential and I have completed many trainings in early childhood education to ensure I provide children with high-quality care and support their development every day. I stay up-to-date with topics related to child development and I am also CPR and First Aid certified. Although my English is not very fluent yet, I am currently studying to improve it. I am passionate about supporting children in their early years and it is a true pleasure for me to be part of their early learning and growth. lo
