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.

Jada
Hi families! My name is Jada, I’m 23 years old and based in Arlington, VA. I’m a reliable, caring, and energetic caregiver who genuinely enjoys working with children of all ages. I pride myself on creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and happy. I have experience assisting with daily routines such as meal prep, homework help, bedtime, and engaging activities like reading, crafts, and outdoor play. I’m very patient, attentive, and adaptable to each child’s needs and personality. I’m currently flexible with my schedule and available to start right away. I’m also open to helping with light housekeeping and maintaining a clean, organized space for your family. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your children, and I always aim to bring a positive attitude, strong communication, and dependability to every family I work with. I look forward to connecting with you! m

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel cared for in a safe and positive environment. I’ve always valued building meaningful connections, and working with kids allows me to bring patience, creativity, and empathy into each day. I love creating calm, structured environments where kids can feel safe and have fun! I have professional experience supporting individuals with different needs through my work as a Direct Support Professional, which required a lot of patience, communication, and responsibility — skills that translate very well into childcare. Outside of that, I’ve helped care for younger relatives and family friends’ children, handling routines like meals, playtime, and bedtime. I’m comfortable creating engaging, age-appropriate activities and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I’m trained in providing direct care and support, including de-escalation, active listening, maintaining safety, and medication administration . I’m also very organized and attentive, which helps with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. My experience as a DSP helped me build strong communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I also have my CPR and First Aid certification.
