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.

Janiya
Hi, I’m Janiya! I’m a warm, attentive, and reliable nanny who truly enjoys creating meaningful connections with the children I care for. I’m patient, observant, and intentional about making sure each child feels seen, heard, and supported. I focus on building routines that promote emotional growth, confidence, and independence while still making room for fun, imagination, and learning through play. I’m calm under pressure, great with communication, and very mindful of a family’s values and expectations. I take pride in being someone families can rely on, and I approach childcare with both professionalism and heart. Supporting a child’s growth during their early years is something I don’t take lightly, it’s a responsibility I value deeply.

Hi, my name is Christiana! I’ve always had a passion for working with children. I previously worked at a home daycare, and I also regularly volunteered at my old church, providing childcare during services and events. I’m patient, energetic, and able to connect with kids easily. I genuinely enjoy supporting their growth, creativity, and everyday adventures.

Jessica
Hi, I'm Jess! I have over 10 years of experience supporting children and families through home visiting, case management, and child development programs. My experience spans infancy through high school-aged youth, giving me a strong understanding of children's developmental needs at every stage. I currently work in maternal and child health as a supervisor supporting families with young children. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, heard, and encouraged to be themselves. Whether we're playing, learning, exploring their interests, or simply following their routine, I strive to create a warm, nurturing environment where children can thrive and parents can feel confident that their little ones are in caring, capable hands. I am trauma-informed, dependable, patient, and committed to building positive, meaningful connections with every family I work with. I understand that parenting takes a village, and I am happy to provide support when families need an extra set of hands. Whether you're looking for occasional evening care, a weekend date night, coverage during appointments or errands, or simply time to recharge, I aim to provide reliable, compassionate care that gives parents peace of mind while ensuring children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for.

Jordan
Hi! My name is Jordan, and I am an incoming college student and athlete. I enjoy working with children and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them. Most of my experience comes from babysitting younger cousins and children of family friends, where I helped with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping kids entertained while making sure they are safe and cared for. I am responsible, patient, and dependable, and I take pride in being someone families can trust. I am available everyday at anytime except for Wednesdays, on Wednesdays until about 4 PM and would love the opportunity to help care for your family.

Hello, my name is Dami. I am a 24 years old college student who is also a mom to a 2year old boy. I am the oldest of four, having two sisters close in age, and the youngest being my 6year old brother. I have always taken care of kids, whether my little siblings, Sunday school kids in church, church summer programs kids, and now my son. I also have experience taking care of kids with disabilities and medical conditions including Down syndrome and autism. I love taking care of kids, and I would say they always gravitate towards me as well.

Emily
A bit about me: I am a 26 year old mom of 3 (2 bonus babies that are 8 & 11, and my bio baby who is 3) and I’m childcare provider and early childhood educator of over 7 years. I currently work as a Special Education self containment teacher for Baltimore City Public Schools. Prior to my time in formal classroom settings, I was a nanny for 2 families doing a nanny share with 4 kids. The girls were 18 months when I began and both moms in the families had babies during my time, so by the end of my time with them they were about 3 and 9 months. My day to day with them included meal preparation and serving, changing diapers, taking them to play in nearby parks and on walks, providing educational and developmentally appropriate activities and crafts, as well as helping assist in potty training and general social and emotional development. I am in the process of trying to leave the public school system, as I find myself wanting to be able to show up more presently in my home life as well as develop my personal passions in my spare time. I currently have to work multiple jobs to support my family and would love to return to a job that not only is fulfilling for my passion as a childcare provider while allowing me time and energy to develop my own family and hobbies. I’d love to set up a time to do an interview! Let me know if you’d be interested.
